Book Synopsis Édith Piaf's Récital 1961 by : David L. Looseley
Download or read book Édith Piaf's Récital 1961 written by David L. Looseley and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2022-12-15 with total page 129 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the beginning of her career in 1935 to her death in 1963 and right up to the present, Édith Piaf has been recognized as unique and iconic. She is France's most celebrated and mythified singing star across the world. Récital 1961 explores her most important album: the live recording of her comeback concert at the Paris Olympia on 29 December 1960, which unveiled her keynote song, 'Non je ne regrette rien' (No Regrets). It examines the content, context and significance of the concert in relation to Piaf's career, her life and her celebrity. What was so special about the performance and why did the ecstatic audiences, that night and at the subsequent performances in 1961, find it so powerful and moving? The book dissects the live show, the album and the songs that feature on it, and at a deeper level their place in the invention of the public Piaf we know today – asking why, more than a century after her birth and 60 years after her death, we still remember her, listen to her and commemorate her around the world.

Book Synopsis Racionais MCs' Sobrevivendo no Inferno by : Derek Pardue
Download or read book Racionais MCs' Sobrevivendo no Inferno written by Derek Pardue and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2021-08-12 with total page 161 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1997 the rap group Racionais MCs (the 'Rational' MCs) recorded the album Sobrevivendo no Inferno (Surviving in Hell), subsequently changing the hip-hop scene in São Paulo and firmly establishing itself as the point of reference for youth across Brazil. In an era when rappers needed to defend the very idea that their work was indeed music and a time when neighborhoods such as Capão Redondo, from where Racionais frontman Mano Brown hailed, often topped homicide statistics, Sobrevivendo empowered as it provoked. As one journalist noted, “the underworld of São Paulo's working-class suburbs is dominated by cheap thrills and provides little space for representation.” Sobrevivendo changed all of that; a brutal but invigorating imagination was born. The lure of Sobrevivendo is the particular combination of word and sound that powerfully involves listeners, especially those millions of young Brazilians who live in the neighborhoods on the periphery of Brazil's megacities. This book celebrates the 25-year anniversary of Sobrevivendo by representing the album's power not only within the hip-hop community but also in other cultural domains such as cinema and literature. The author also provides his own narrative spins on the sentiment of Sobrevivendo, thus making the book a creative mix of cultural analysis and inspired testimony.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: At the age of 26, Théophanis Lamboukas meets Edith Piaf, in January 1962. He is to become her second husband and the duo will perform her last big hit, ‘A quoi ça sert l’amour?’ When the star’s secretary, Claude Figus, introduces them to each other, Théo is so dazzled by ‘the Little Sparrow’ that he is speechless with emotion. Smitten, Edith confides to Figus, ‘I want to see your friend again so I can find out whether he’s as smart as he is good-looking, because he hasn’t said a word all evening.’ They are driven to see each other again and Piaf encourages Théo to take up a career as a singer. She invents his stage name, Sarapo (‘I love you’ in Greek). They form a couple in life and on the stage, until Piaf’s death on the 10th October, 1963. Théo, her last love, joins her seven years later, victim of a car accident. Their wonderful and tragic story is evoked here by Christie Laume; the singer’s last months as they’ve never been revealed before.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Few artists have marked their own eras, as well as those that come later, in the way that Édith Piaf has. People from every generation can identify with her popular songs, which make the absolute most of her virtuosic vocal skill, resonating from such a small person-who also had a very big heart. This book is meant to be more simply a biography: it is also meant to be an in-depth analysis of an international star with an exceptional personality and incomparable musical talent. A bona fide ambassador of French folk music, she served as the icon of musical potential and achievement-both in France and around the world.

Book excerpt: The legend that emerged from a journalist's imagination, and maintained by Piaf, gave birth to it on 19 December 1915 in Paris, at 72, rue de Belleville, in the 20th arrondissement, according to the plaque affixed to the house located at that address. Some sources even say that she was born "on the steps" of the front door of the building, on the pilgrimage of a police officer who took the baby out of her mother's womb. However, according to her birth certificate at the Paris Registry Office, Édith Giovanna Gassion was born at 4, rue de la Chine, the address of Tenon Hospital, which is indeed one of the health establishments closest to rue de Belleville. Born into poverty, Edith Piaf is a child of the ball whose parents had been in the entertainment business for two generations.
