Thomas Jolly looks back on Celine Dion’s performance
Guests on the set of C to You This Monday, September 9, Thomas Jolly and Thierry Reboul returned to the opening ceremony of the Olympic Games and the performance of Céline Dion, who sang the song from the first floor of the Eiffel Tower The Hymn to Love by Edith Piaf. Rehearsals took place just the day before the opening ceremony, at 3 a.m.
“She arrived. She was offered two staging options. A first on the Trocadéro stage. She said ‘I’ll try, but I’ll sing up there, come wind, snow or rain, I’ll sing on the first floor of the Eiffel Tower. That was your initial idea and it’s been my dream, in fact, for a very long time’. She had this dream of singing on the Eiffel Tower, without playback and the voice is there. She’s there and she’s another iron lady. Two iron ladies intertwined” confided Thomas Jolly on the set of CA You.
