Chanson
In general, this is any lyric-driven French song, usually polyphonic and secular, arising from the Middle Ages and the Renaissance. Chanson qualifies most French-language singers/songwriters for whom the quality of the text is essential and where the rhythm of the music follows that of the text. Some prominent names of this genre are Charles Aznavour, Édith Piaf, Joe Dassin, Yves Montand, Bénabar, Rina Ketty, Charles Trenet, Françoise Hardy.
