Nearly three decades after Serge Gainsbourg's death, his former romantic and artistic partner, Jane Birkin, is still bringing his storied music catalogue to life. On Friday, the 73-year-old performer will bring her signature breathy vocals to New York, where she will stage her traveling symphonic tribute to Gainsbourg's work set to orchestral arrangements. "I don't think I could do better for Serge, I really don't. Or for me, for that matter," says Birkin from her hotel room in Manhattan's Upper West Side.
