Biography

A JOYFUL SOUND
May 1994
Saintes-Maries-de-la-Mer

“Day and night, Saintes-Maries is full of the sounds of Gypsy music. The bars, restaurants, campsites, and streets are teeming with musicians and dancers. You hear the Gypsy Kings playing in a seaside bar while songs fill the church square. Gypsies play guitars, violins, and cellos as you eat. Music is their very soul.”
