Edith Piaf recorded masterpiece after masterpiece from the beginning of her career to the end, and nearly all of her songs stand the test of time. These ten, though, are la creme de la creme , and if your MP3 player holds only a handful of Edith Piaf songs, these should be the ones. "La Vie en Rose" With lyrics written by Piaf herself, "La Vie En Rose" is surely the best-known and most-loved song in her repertoire. First released in 1946, this tiny masterpiece would go on to become a worldwide hit and an essential piece of the popular music canon. La Vie en Rose was the title of the critically-acclaimed 2007 Edith Piaf biopic, which starred the delightful Marion Cotillard as the legendary singer, a role which won her an Academy Award. "Non, Je Ne Regrette Rien" Written by composer Charles Dumont and lyricist Michel Vaucaire, "Non, Je Ne Regrette Rien," which translates to "No, I regret nothing," was recorded by Piaf in 1960, after she had declared her intent to retire. The free-spirited songstress, whose life was filled with scandal and drama, heard the song and identified with it so fiercely that she came out of her (albeit short-lived) retirement to record it. This song has remained popular in the pop culture cloud for over 50 years, being regularly covered, used in advertisements and films (notably 2010's Inception ), and is the most popular non-classical track chosen by contributors to the long-time BBC4 radio program "Desert Island Discs." "Hymne a L'Amour" Edith Piaf wrote the lyrics to this dramatic torch song about the love of her life, boxer Marcel Cerdan, just months before his death in a plane crash in October of 1949. The music was composed by frequent Piaf collaborator Marguerite Monnot. The song has been popularly covered by many artists, including Josh Groban and Japanese pop star Hikaru Otada. "Padam. Padam" Sort of a meta-earworm, "Padam. Padam" is a song about a song that's stuck in your head which, indeed, gets stuck in your head every time you listen to it. A metaphor for something (some people say "Padam" is the heartbeat of your lover, others say it's the buzz of the city of Paris itself, and still others assert that it was simply Piaf's favorite nonsense syllable to insert when she couldn't remember the words to a song), this waltz really captures a certain classic Parisian dancehall feeling. "Milord" This famous number, which tells the tale of a woman of the night who falls in love with an upper-class gentleman who she sees on the street, was written by lyricist Georges Moustaki and composer Marguerite Monnot. It's written very much as a performance tune for the cabaret, with part of the song being performed in a danceable upbeat bal-musette -influenced style, with breaks for dramatic rubato segments. Though not as famous as many of her other songs, the faster-timed melody is immediately recognizable. "Jezebel" Most of Edith Piaf's most famous songs were eventually translated from their original French into multiple languages to be covered by international artists, but "Jezebel" was actually originally an English-language song, written by American songwriter Wayne Shanklin and first made into a hit by Frankie Laine. The lyrics, taking their title from the biblical Jezebel, speak of a heartbreaking woman who breaks the narrator's heart. Piaf's version, which was translated by Charles Aznavour, is both dramatic and playful, and almost sounds as though she's singing it to herself, rather than to some outside temptress. "Les Trois Cloches" This unlikely hit, in which Piaf is accompanied by a male choir called Les Compagnons de la Chanson (who also accompanied her on her 1945/1946 United States tour, each night of which opened with this song), is one of her folkier numbers. A charming ballad which tells the story of the three times the church bells in the little valley rang for one Jean-Francois Nicot (his baptism, his wedding, and his funeral), it was translated and reworked into an English-language pop song under both the name "The Three Bells" as well as "When The Angelus Was Ringing," and thus recorded by a number of mid-century American pop luminaries. "L'Accordeoniste" "L'Accordeoniste," tells the story of a prostitute who uses music (specifically, bal-musette and its accompanying dance, the java ) as an escape from the anguish of her life. "L'Accordeoniste" was written by Michel Emer, a Jewish composer, and songwriter. During WWII, Piaf, who was a member of the French Resistance, gave Emer money and helped to quietly escape the country before the Nazis could catch him. "La Foule" This song, whose title translates to "The Crowd," was based on the tune of an earlier popular South American Waltz written by Angel Cabral, with the newer French lyrics written by Michel Rivgauche. It tells a story of a pair of people who are united by the movement of a crowd during a street festival, only to be separated and pulled apart by the same crowd mere moments later. "Sous Le Ciel De Paris" The beautiful city of Paris, where Edith Piaf was born, discovered, made famous, and ultimately buried, was a popular theme of her songs. This one tells simply of all the things that might be happening "Under The Paris Sky" at any given time. It's romantic and sweet, and a fitting tribute to the city she called home.

One did not breathe without the other two. Born in Paris practically on the streets on December 19, 1915, she struggled from day one, the daughter of street performers. The mother, a singer, eventually abandoned both Edith and her father for a solo career. Piaf spent her youth entertaining passers-by, receiving little formal education in the process. She often accompanied her father's acrobat street act with her singing and at various times was forced to live with various relatives, in alleys or in cheap hotels. An aborted love affair left her with a baby girl at age 17, but little Marcelle died of meningitis at 2 years old. Devastated, Piaf returned to the streets she knew, now performing solo. Her fortunes finally changed when an impresario, Louis Leplee, mesmerized by what he heard, offered the starving but talented urchin a contract. He alone was responsible for taking her off the streets at age 20 and changing her name from Edith Gassion to "La Mome Piaf" (or "Kid Sparrow"). Piaf grew in status entertaining in elegant cafés and cabarets and became a singing sensation amid the chic French society with her throbbing vocals and raw, emotional power. From 1936 Piaf recorded many albums and eventually became one of the highest paid stars in the world. She was first embroiled in scandal when her mentor, Leplee, was murdered and she was held for questioning. She managed to survive the messy affair and carry on while her ever-growing society circle now began to include such elite members as writer/director Jean Cocteau. Piaf also took to writing and composing around this time; one of the over 80 songs she wrote included her signature standard, "La vie en rose." Although she appeared sporadically in films, it was live audiences that sustained her. Piaf later toured the United States to branch out internationally. America was slow to accept the melodramatic Piaf but she persevered and eventually won legions of fans. She also continued a series of affairs with the likes of actor Paul Meurisse, composer Henry Contet and, most notably, boxing champion Marcel Cerdan. The latter's death in a 1949 plane crash left Piaf devastated and many claim this was the beginning of her downfall. Piaf had a life-long habit of involving herself heart and soul in the launching of her lovers' careers. Over the years this would include Yves Montand' and 'Eddie Constantine. Two serious car accidents suffered in 1951 led to a morphine and alcohol addiction that left Piaf's life skidding out of control despite a potentially happy marriage in 1952 to actor Jacques Pills. Though slowly crippled by severe arthritis, a series of spectacular comebacks in concert and recordings would follow over the years but her health would slowly waste her away. Her last appearance was at the Paris Olympia, racked and hunched over with pain and barely able to stand. Her last recorded song was "L'homme de Berlin" in 1963, the year of her death.

  • EDITH PIAF LA MÖME Una Vida… Una Leyenda
    EDITH PIAF LA MÖME Una vida… una leyenda ay vidas que por sus características, por las condiciones, a menudo desfavorables, en las cuales comienzan o se desenvuelven, pero que Hllenas de una tenacidad sin falla, de un espíritu colmado de talento y de la pasión que le imprimen a cada momento y a cada reto, se convierten en vidas ejemplares, incluso en leyendas. Tal es el caso de Edith Giovanna Gassion, a quien se le conoce en el mundo entero bajo el nombre artístico de Edith Piaf. Nació Edith, el 19 de diciembre de 1915 en París, y cuenta la historia que su madre, Annetta Mai- llard, quien era cantante ambulante, no alcanzó a llegar al hospital al momento del parto, entonces Edith vino al mundo en la calle de Belleville, frente a una farola en el número 72, donde hoy hay una placa que recuerda el acontecimiento. La pobreza y la profesión ambulante de sus padres los obliga a confiar la niña a la abuela materna, quien alimentaba a la bebé más con vino que con leche, esto no dura mucho pues es recuperada por su padre, quien estando próximo a ir al frente en la Primera Guerra Mundial, la lleva a Normandía donde su madre, quien es dueña de un prostíbulo en el municipio de Bernay; allí vive Edith sus años de infancia cobijada por el amor que le prodigaban estas mujeres, lo que le genera sus primeros sentimientos de aprecio hacia las personas desfavorecidas, aquellas que sufren una vida dura y difícil. Luego de la guerra su padre la lleva consigo a vivir la vida de los pequeños circos itinerantes, donde se descubre cantando en las calles su extraordinaria voz, hasta el momento de la separación de su progenitor a los 14 años, para iniciar su vida de artista entre Montmartre, Pigalle y Menilmontat… es cuando encuentra y se enamora de Louis Dupont, con quien tuvo su hija Marcelle, quien fallece a los 2 años víctima de una meningitis.

    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.

  • Edith Piaf, 50 Años Sin La Gran Diva De La 'Chanson'
    Edith Piaf, 50 años sin la gran diva de la ‘chanson’ Hace cincuenta años desaparecía la cantante Edith Piaf. Su voz y sus canciones siguen conmoviendo el corazón de las nuevas generaciones. Su mito sigue proyectándose sobre la escena musical. Edith Piaf (1915- 1963), poco después de 1945. / France Press Sólo tenía 48 años pero su cuerpo era el de una anciana que parecía haber soportado sobre sus espaldas todo el dolor y el sufrimiento del siglo XX. El 11 de octubre de 1963 en su retiro de Grasse, en la Provenza, donde descansa alejada de los focos mediáticos junto a su nuevo amor, un joven peluquero griego llamado Theo - al que ha bautizado Sharapo, en griego “Te quiero”- muere Edith Piaf. La gran diva de la Chanson cerraba una vida tumultuosa donde la felicidad y el amor se hermanaban con la tragedia, accidentes, drogas, curas de desintoxicación, escándalos, y que le había conducido desde las calles de la pobreza a los grandes escenarios y salones internacionales. El aniversario de la muerte de la cantante ha generado una copiosa reedición discográfica y nuevas aproximaciones literarias, de la biografía al ensayo, a la mujer, mito y artista que mejor ha simbolizado Francia y el espíritu eterno de la Chanson. Un sencillo vestido negro, una voz conmovedora, unas manos que arañan o acarician la luz escénica y un pequeño cuerpo que se balancea componen el perfil que seducirá a los públicos de uno y de otro lado del océano. Piaf bebe en sus canciones realistas que se produce a orillas del Sena y que ella proyecta con la máscara de la tragedia, el amor o la desesperación.
