26 iconic titles from the golden age of French song, including a 12-page booklet with complete information in both English and French. Moving away from the big theatres and flourishing in clubs and small caf�s, French Song had its summit in the mid-20th Century, when figures such as Edith Piaf, Charles Trenet, Jacques Brel, Georges Brassens, L�o Ferr�, Dalida, Charles Aznavour, Henri Salvador, Juliette Gr�co, and Serge Gainsbourg, disseminated their art first in Paris, and then throughout the world. It was a new kind of song, influenced by literary realism and the naturalist movement, and its lyrics frequently focused on the lives of socially marginalised people.
