5.0 out of 5 stars
a MUST for every Mouskouri fan,
This review is from: Vielles Chanson (Audio CD)
Actually these are 2 original Mouskouri's old french album compiled on 1 CD.As other reviewer wrote,this album really captures the French spirit with lots of feeling poured from these songs.Mouskouri's large part from her repertoire is her french songs & this album is one of her best studio efforts in this direction.Also ,I'd recommend on the "In Paris" album from 66,presently available only on Lps.

Five stars aren't enough!,
By Math Maven (Southern California) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Vielles Chanson (Audio CD)
Nana Mouskouri gives us an intelligent and sensitive interpretation of old French songs. The songs are lyrical and in some cases, haunting. (I have played this music for teenagers who were also impressed and moved by it.) Actually, it was Nana's rendition of "Pauvre Reutebeuf", which I heard on Karl Haas' Adventures in Good Music, that introduced me to Nana Mouskouri and made me an instant fan. Mr. Haas' point was that this music epitomizes the French spirit. It helps, but is not mandatory, to understand French to get the most out of this album. However the music is so powerful and honest that it transcends language. (Lyrics are included.) My life would be a lot poorer without this album.

The old made new in tuneful interpretation,

This review is from: Vielles Chanson (Audio CD)
I'd never even heard of Nana Mouskouri, but I like French music, so I purchased this CD. I found a beautiful voice and over an hour of lovely, richly interpreted songs. I'd never heard any of these tunes before, but I love almost every one. What a great sing-along album! The booklet contains all the lyrics, too. Mouskouri is the only singer I can think of who wears glasses on stage (well, besides Buddy Holly).
