Chanson

Chanson is a style of French music that originated in the late 19th century and flourished in the early 20th century. It is characterized by simple yet passionate melodies and lyrics that often deal with themes of love, loss, and longing. Chanson singers typically perform with a small band or accompaniment and are usually accompanied by a guitar or piano. The style has been heavily influenced by folk music and popular music, particularly those of Latin America, and has evolved over time to include elements of rock, jazz, and blues.
