Edith Piaf Biographie Pdf Edith piaf biographie pdf Continue Edith's mother was a singer. She sang in cafes and other places. She left her daughter with her paternal grandmother to be raised there. This man ran a brothel in Normandy. At the age of six, Edith went blind. The grandmother and all the girls in the brothel entered the Cathedral of Lyce, asked Saint Teresa to heal her, and Edith regained her sight. It was at this time that Edith began to believe in God and Jesus Christ, but her prayers went more to Saint Teresa. Edith said, We understand each other better. Throughout the time I knew Edith, every night, knelt before her bed and said her prayer. Edith's father was an acrobat. He showed himself in front of a cafe, on the streets of Paris. When Edith was twelve years old, her father took her from her grandmother's house. Edith joined her father and began singing in the streets, presenting a plate to get the money that made them live. That's when the great owner of a Parisian nightclub, Louis Leble, heard her sing and said: With the voice you have, the street is not the place for you to sing. She then got her first contract. He also gave her his name as an artist. You remind me of a little piaf singing on the streets of Paris She became La Mom Piaf. It was Edith's unique talent that took her off the streets and brought her into the spotlight. Edith's name and career began to grow. Jean Cocteau became her friend and wrote her play The Bel Indifferent, which she performed. She had a talent for actress, but singing was her strength and her life. She became a personal composer, and Edith became the most famous singer in France and the world. Thanks to her success, she made a lot of money, but spent, not counting. She was very generous with others. She led a great lifestyle, with open tables, staff and cars. Despite all this glory, it has always remained very simple. On stage, she looked like a little girl in a little black dress. He managed to symbolize the atmosphere of Paris. Edith was Paris and Paris was Edith. His audience consisted of all classes, from the simplest to the richest, because his songs touched their hearts. During World War II, Edith went to Germany, sang for French prisoners and posed with them for a photo. As soon as she returned to France, Edith took individual photos of each prisoner to establish a passport, and when she returned to sing for them, Edith gave them her passport, which brought freedom.

Nicknamed in the early days of La Meme Piaf, it was at the beginning of several successes that became the classics of the repertoire, such as La Vie en Roses, No, I have no regrets, Anthem and l'amour, Mon L'gionnaire, La Foule, Milord, Mon Dieu or L'Accord'oniste. A singer with a vivid performance and voice, she has inspired many composers and mentors of young artists such as Yves Montand, Charles Aznavour, Les Compagnons de la Chanson, George Mustaki, Charles Dumont ... She gained international notoriety, but her career was hampered by serious health problems; she died at the age of 47. The family biography of the plaque is attached to 72 Belleville Street. The legend, born of the journalist's imagination and supported by Piaf, gave birth to her on December 19, 1915, in Paris, at 72 Rue de Belleville, in the 20th arrondissement, according to a sign attached to the house at this address - some sources even will say that she was born on the steps of the front door of the building, in the pilgrim of the policeman who allegedly took the child from her mother's womb. However, according to her birth certificate on the Paris civil registry, Edith Giovanna Gassion was born at 4 rue de la Chine, the address of Tenon Hospital, which is actually one of the closest medical facilities to Belleville Street. Edith Piaf, born in poverty, is a ballroom child whose ancestors belonged to the world of entertainment for two generations. Parental marriage extracted from his parents' marriage certificate. Louis Gassion, father of Edith Piaf, joined the 89th Infantry Regiment, based at Gemo Barracks in Seine, Ionna, on August 11, 1914. He would three-day vacation to marry Annette Mayar on September 4. From this sealed union at Sens City Hall, little information has been made public. Marriage certificates in the municipal archives indicate that the ceremony took place on September 4 at 10:30 a.m., when world war first fighting raged in eastern France and the Germans threatened Paris. The permanent civil servant that day was Alphonse Dupchas, deputy mayor Sens Lucien Cornet, and the son of Sylvain Dupes, the city's preemen mayor, from 1872 to 1879. The presence of Edith Piaf's parents in the Seine was explained by the inclusion of his father in the 89th Infantry Regiment on 11 August 1914. The latter was chained to the Hemo Barracks, where the National Police School is now located. In his book Piaf, Truth, biographer Emmanuel Bonini confirms that gassion's second class mobilization is the couple's only attachment to Sens: They got married there on a three-day vacation while they were in Paris, on the street of Chateau de Rentier, in the 13th arrondissement. The author adds that four witnesses to the marriage - a printer from Wendem, a Parisian chisel, a farmer from Vissus and a businessman from Savigny-sur-Orge - were, of course, mobilized in Sens before joining the front. Family-born Louis Alphonse Gassion, born in Falaise, Calvados, on May 10, 1881 and died in Paris on March 3, 1944, is a civilian circus artist (acrobat and antipodist). He is the son of Victor Alphonse Gassion, Norman Falez, a circus squire, and Leontine Louise Decamps, known as Mama Tina, a brothel owner in Bern, Normandy. Edith lived there for a while with her grandparents. Many of the families of this period are immortalized and preserved in numbers by his cousin Seceille Bernier, who died in 2014. Edith's mother, Annette Mayar, Born in Livorno, Italy, on August 4, 1895, and died on February 6, 1945, in Paris, is a famous street singer whose name is the artist Lyne Mars, of Kabilian origin (Berber Cabayli, Algeria; Cabile, according to Arletti, who knew her well and said: She shared her dishes with the Line of Mars, the mother of Edith Piaf, Anette Mayar, whose real name is A.I.A. , Algerian Kabil, a friend of La Gulu, and after Monique Lange, who wrote: She came from afar. She's from Cabaye. Edith's grandmother was a cabile and, under the name of Aisha, was in the number is learned fleas. It is also mentioned by Claudine Boulanger, author of a biography called Edith Piaf. Albert Bensussan, for his part, disputes Edith Piaf's Kabilian origin, stating: That's why the child may be put to sleep by Berber songs from Morocco, although, again, history flirts with the legend. For this woman often portrayed as Kabyle, which she certainly was not, Kabylia being in Algeria , believing that her maternal family treats more confident Moroccan Berbers through her grandfather, Saeed Ben Mohamed, born in Mogador. She was the daughter of Auguste Eugene Mayar (1866-1912) and Emma Saeed Ben Mohamed, The circus artist, born in Suassons on December 10, 1876, died in Paris in 1930, the daughter of Saeed Ben Mohammed, a Moroccan circus acrobat born in Mogador in 1827, died in 1890 in Montluson, and Marguerite Bracco, an Italian-born, born in Murazano in 1830. who died in Paris in 1898. According to Arletti, at La Danse Moorish, one of the decor panels at Guulu Barracks in Toulouse- Lautrec, Emma Said could have been a Moorish dancer sitting on the right behind Gula. Louis Gassion and Annette Mayar named their daughter Edith after Edith Cavell, an English nurse shot dead by the Germans two months earlier. After Edith, they had their second child, Herbert Lucien Gassion, born on August 31, 1918, in Marseille and died on 22 January 1997 in Clichy. About his mother Herbert said: Great artist, but she could not force her luck ... She sang in Black Cat, Mikado, Monocle... then goes with the flow - drift, the word is good ... And Arletti says, The girl's voice was not at the mother's, but with her daughter, who had her mother's voice. Edith Piaf's childhood as a child. Edith Piaf's paternal grandmother's house in Bern, Evre. Her mother, too poor to raise her, entrusted her very little to her maternal grandmother, Emma Saeed Ben Mohamed, who lives on Retheval Street in the 19th arrondissement.

Prof. Dr. Georg Kremnitz Regardez cette petite personne dont les mains sont celles du lézard des ruines. Regardez son front de Bonaparte, ses yeux d'aveugle qui vient de retrouver la vue. Comment chantera-t- elle ? Comment s'exprimera-t-elle ? Comment sortira-t-elle de sa poitrine étroite les grandes plaintes de la nuit ?

    Vigías del Patrimonio Festivalito Ruitoqueño de música colombiana Patrimonio Cultural de Santander - Patrimonio Cultural de Floridablanca Orgullo de Santander para Colombia Notas con Armonía N° 413 Boletín institucional de la Fundación Armonía con información cultural y de interés general. Bucaramanga, Santander, Colombia 14 años (2003-2017) Víctor Gaviria ganó premio en el Festival de Cine de La Habana Andrea Marín Gómez / El Colombiano Víctor Gaviria y su hija Mercedes Gaviria, con quien trabajó en su nueva película, La mujer del animal. Foto: Jaime Pérez El mismo escenario para dos mujeres distintas permitió que Víctor Gaviria y Simón Mesa se llevaran los premios a Mejor dirección y Mejor cortometraje de ficción en el 38 Festival Internacional del Nuevo Cine Latinoamericano de La Habana, Cuba. El escenario fue Medellín, lugar donde La mujer del animal, película con la que ganó Gaviria y que se estrenó el pasado 30 de noviembre, cuenta la historia de Amparo, quien al ser descubierta disfrazándose de Virgen, huye del convento donde vive y llega a vivir con su hermana a un barrio humilde de la ciudad. Allí conoce a Libardo, El Animal, quien la obliga a vivir con él. El largometraje, donde el director trabajó con su hija Mercedes Gaviria, es fruto de una historia de la vida real y muestra explícitamente la violencia a la que es expuesta la mujer. Madre, de Simón, por su parte, habla de los sueños juveniles de la misma Medellín, donde Andrea, de 16 años, baja al Centro de la ciudad para asistir a un casting de una película porno. El reconocimiento a Mejor largometraje fue para Desierto, película mexicana de Jonás Cuarón protagonizada por Gael García, que muestra la odisea de unos trabajadores indocumentados que buscan llegar a Estados Unidos.
