French Chanson

Jenny Renard

Paris after dark. Songs of love, longing, loss and joie de vivre.

The emotional candour of chanson

Jenny Renard brings the great French chansons of the 1950s to the stage without sanding away their character or emotional directness. Rooted in the tradition yet alive in the present, these songs are given the space to draw an audience close.

The current concert programme

La Vie en Rose

A Journey into the World of French Chanson

Paris is the point of departure. From there, La Vie en Rose moves through love and passion, memory and longing, loss, resilience and joie de vivre. Familiar chansons become a concert evening with a dramatic life of its own.

The artist

Finding her own voice

Singing was Jenny Renard’s first dream. Dance became her first profession, taking her to stages in Berlin, Vienna and internationally. Years later, Jacques Brel, Marlene Dietrich and Édith Piaf led her towards the music in which voice, story and feeling become inseparable: chanson.
