Edith Piaf: Portrait - Du Trottoir Au Music-hall
Label: Chant du Monde Catalog: 5742267 Format: CD Edith PiafPortrait - Du trottoir au music-hall Portrait illuminates the work of those universally recognized artists we all know and love – the leaders and the groundbreakers – those for whom we can all agree there was a 'before' and an 'after'. The two indisputable champions of French "chanson" are Edith Piaf and Charles Trénet. Piaf left an enduring legacy, both to music hall and to musical performers (male and female alike), from Yves Montand to Mireille Mathieu, including Jacques Brel and Annie Cordy. For each artist in the series, the songs featured take this collection far beyond a simple 'Best of', inviting the listener not only on a musical journey, but on a journey of love. Price: $23.98 |
