As she has already done for other songs, host Monique Giroux is preparing a podcast that will tell the story of The inputa magnificent work by Louise Forestier and François Dompierre.
Posted at 9:00 a.m.
The origin of this song dates back to 1972, when a bailiff arrived at Louise Forestier’s with the intention of taking possession of certain goods.
Absent during this visit, the singer left a note on the piano that said: “Don’t touch my piano, that’s all I have to put on my back…” No doubt touched by these words, the bailiff left the instrument in its place. In 1992, the artist finally parted with her piano, a Baby Grand. She found a buyer thanks to an ad published in The Press.
The buyers, a couple from Verdun (think they remember Louise Forestier), asked the singer to autograph the piano soundboard. Monique Giroux is now looking for the bailiff and the owners of the piano.
