Who is Milko Foucault-Larche?

Milko Foucault – Larche on [June 1, 1960] is a Mauritian Australian entertainer. He is best known in Australia for his tribute to Charles Aznavour, "Aznavour... From Today" and most likely the only Aznavour tribute of its kind in Australia.

He made his stage debut in 1978 working with a French Theatre Company touring Mauritius. During his first theatrical season, Milko played a small part in the world premiere of Mauritian Operetta Surcouf, performed at the Port Louis Municipal Theatre with French tenor Jose Todaro in the title role. Other operettas during that season include The Gipsy Princess, The Count of Luxemburg, The Merry Widow and La Route Fleurie. In that same year, Milko made his debut on Mauritian Television singing the French song J’attendrai, which was made famous by Edith Piaf.

During the ensuing years, Milko then a student of Mauritian tenor Max Moutia, regularly appeared in clubs and hotels around the island. In 1979, Milko co–produced with Bernard Desvaux de Marigny a stage show on the music of Surcouf, that was later produced for the Mauritius Broadcasting Corporation – MBC, The Mauritian National Television.
