Chanson

Japanese: シャンソン
Chanson
In French, it means "song." In music history, the important forms are solo and accompaniment that began in France around 1400 (main composers were Dufay and Binchois), and unaccompanied polyphonic choral works from 1500 onwards. The latter are based on contrapuntal writing and secular lyrics, but are characterized by a clearer structure and the use of onomatopoeia than the contemporary Italian madrigals. Representative composers include Josquin Des Prez and Janequin. Modern chansons as popular music often emphasize the narrative quality of the lyrics, and are made up of a couplé, which tells the story, and a refrain, which is a repeated part. In modern French "art songs" such as those by Fauré and Debussy, the term melody is used, which is equivalent to the German word lied. → Flemish School / Lied → Related topics: Arcadelt | Ockeghem | Canzone | Cabaret | Sweelinck | Under the Roofs of Paris | Piaf | Prévert | Bécaud | Montand | Lassus

Japanese:
フランス語で〈歌謡〉の意。音楽史では,フランスで1400年ごろに始まった独唱と伴奏の形(おもな作曲者はデュファイやバンショア),および1500年以降の無伴奏のポリフォニー合唱曲が重要。後者は対位法的書法,世俗的歌詞によっているが,同時代イタリアのマドリガルより構造が明確で擬音を使う点が特徴である。ジョスカン・デ・プレ,ジャヌカンらがその代表的作曲家。現代のポピュラー音楽としてのシャンソンは,歌詞の物語性を重視したものが多く,物語部分のクープレと繰り返し部分のルフラン(リフレイン)からできている。なお,フォーレやドビュッシーに代表されるフランス近代の〈芸術歌曲〉には,ドイツ語のリートに相当する語としてメロディの呼称がある。→フランドル楽派/リート
