Both German and French cultures were strongly influenced by the emergence of «chanson réaliste» (realist song) in the 20th century. During interwar years in Berlin, German cabaret songs appeared with artists such as Bertolt Brecht and Kurt Weill. In France, after the Second World War, this movement was represented by numerous artists, including Edith Piaf, Léo Ferré, Serge Gainsbourg and Jacques Brel in the cabarets of Saint-Germain-des-Prés in Paris, and then on famous international stages.

 

 


In order to commemorate the French-German friendship, and to coincide with Fête de la Musique (World Music Day), two great artists - EVA MEIER (Germany) and MOURON (France) will give an exceptional free concert that is a unique opportunity to rediscover these extraordinary songbooks, in which the association of poetry and music has reached unrivalled popularity.
