Formidable!: French Chansons

Thomas Oliemans writes: “I have had French chansons in my head for as long as I can remember: on a scratchy car radio or a cassette player. I moved primarily into the world of classical singing, in opera, lied and oratorio, but the chanson was never far away. Indeed, at almost each stage of my musical development it appeared to grow with me.” (Channel Classics)
