Joyeuse Saint Valentin

"Black Eyes", originally written in 1843 by the Ucranian poet Yevhen Hrebinka for his first wife Maria Vasilyevna, became popular as a song by the Russian opera singer Fédor Chaliapine. Later, a most known version was made by the Italian-born British composer Adalgiso Ferraris who also played this song with the name "Dark Eyes" in a movie. The song became very popular and wrongly known as "Russian traditional" and was played by many artists, including the French jazz guitarist and composer Jean "Django" Reinhardt. "Les Yeux Noirs" the version shown here, is a cover of Django's version made by the American musical duo Pomplamoose, composed of husband-and-wife Jack Conte and Nataly Dawn who spent her childhood in France and Belgium.
