A British street singer who has made his home in Puget-sur-Durance, Chris Simmance draws inspiration from The Prophet, Khalil Gibran's celebrated work published in 1923. His musical adaptation in twelve songs explores some of life's most fundamental questions through the words of the Lebanese-American poet.

Joined by Julia on viola, Simmance performs this deeply personal tribute in English. Blending British folk influences with the distinctive rhythm of Gibran's writing, the songs offer a fresh way to experience the poet's work.
