On the occasion of the Francophonie month, the French Embassy in Kuwait had organized a beautiful concert yesterday 'Trio Titi Robin' concert yesterday at Shamiya theatre . Thierry Titi Robin  born in 1957 in Angers, Maine-et-Loire, France, is a French self taught musician influenced by Gypsy, Tzigane, arab, european, Celtic  and Indian music which is quite eminent in his rendering. Titi Robin plays the oud, guitar and bouzouki with grace and ease that’s absolutely spelling binding. He was accompanied by Francis Varis, accordionist  and Ze Luis Nascimento, percussionist. They both played marvelously which hugely complemented Titi’s musical concert.  

Titi Robin’s music  was tantalizing with with an amazing dose of  vigour. The audience were quite mesmerized with his  music which was a indeed a soulful experience. When the concert ended, people just wanted to hear more. Titi Robin is indeed a gifted and extremely talented musician.  I am glad my husband and I could attend it. Unfortunately I forgot my cellphone at home and couldn’t take any pictures of the event. However, here is a clip of one of Titi’s previous concert to give you a taste of his music. Do try to listen to his beautiful music from his various concerts and albums which would be available on ‘you tube’ website.

A big thanks to the French Embassy for arranging such a beautiful concert!
