Walter Gehr
I passionately devote my singing to the French Chanson with covers of giants of that genre like, for instance, Charles Aznavour, Gilbert Bécaud, Jacques Brel, Michel Legrand and Yves Montand. I am probably the male singer who in Austria does most chanson concerts. He has also written jazz songs in English.
