French crooner and 60’s- 70’s heart-throb Charles Aznavour, one of
France’s most popular and enduring singers was rightfully honored
by President Michel Suleiman on Wednesday with the Lebanese Golden
Order of Merit in first class.

Aznavour born in Paris in 1924 is the son of Armenian immigrants. He
is often described as the Frank Sinatra of France. He has written
musicals, countless songs and acted in cinema.

Aznavour speaks and sings in many languages and has collaborated with
various leading artists.

The Beiteddine Music Festival will host Aznavour’s rich voice on
Thursday evening and dream again of yesterday…Non, Je n’ai rein
oublie.
