Charles Aznavour

Gifted with extraordinary talent and tenacity, Charles Aznavour climbed the ladder of fame with difficulty, but without ever retreating. His expertise has allowed him to reach a near-absolute peak worldwide, at least for a Frenchman, in terms of notoriety. Nourished by multiple influences (Armenian through his family, Jewish through his childhood, jazz and realist through his singing idols), he has created a body of work with an original tone that reaches an extremely wide audience - particularly female.

This anthology gives a glimpse of the lesser-known period of his career , the 1950s, during which he sought and ended up finding his way, between rhythm, sensuality and nostalgia.
