Luc PLAMANDON
In the landscape of French song, posterity has a habit of remembering first of its interpreters. Paradoxically, poets, writers and composers, are relegated to the background. Few people, through the decades and musical styles, have the privilege to stamp their name the pantheon of the song. Luc Plamondon is one of them the same way that a Jean-Loup Dabadie or one that Jacques Plante. A must-author of French songAuthor of genius from Quebec, Luc Plamondon is the creator of the largest unforgettable musicals of the last thirty years. Starsailor, Romeo and Juliet, Cindy, and Notre Dame de Paris, are all popular success, the fruits of the Canadian imagination, often associated to the opportunity of other big names in the song, Michel Berger Richard Cocciante. For over sixty years, Luc Plamondon is inseparable from dozens of artists of all ages (from Dufresne Lââm) and remains a key figure in contemporary French music. Quebec 1942Born March 2, 1942 in Canada, Saint-Raymond de Portneuf, a village founded in 1842 near Quebec by his great-grandfather, Luc Plamondon spent a studious childhood and musical. First of all, high on the family farm, and educated by the Jesuits, he learned piano through classical music. S to escape, and because adolescence is a source of rebellion, Luke s intoxicating music of the 50s: the young rockers with Presley, of course, but also Léo Ferré (another rebel in his own way), Brel, and Brecht's theater. The paradox of the character is there, rubbing shoulders in the intimate rock, theater, classical music and French chanson known to text. In short, the musical Is not No the perfect blend of four distinct genera?Study and travelHe wrote his first texts while pursuing his studies and obtaining the baccalaureate. He's also trying to theater. After a year in Montreal, he discovers France and Paris (study of art) for a year before moving to London s (West London College) and Berlin and Rome. Luke is definitely European before the hour and more imbued with the culture of each country that he visits. It develops over a tremendous capacity for learning languages (Italian, English, Spanish). His degree of advanced studies in English in his pocket, he travels the world in real globe-trotter: the India, Greece and Mexico develop in them the taste of other. C is actually in New York where he landed to practice the trade of interpreter at the UN, that Luke, in 1969, definitely puts a foot in the music, then back up in his life. Hair, the musical made famous when a tobacco throughout the West and will be at the origin of his vocation late. DebutIn recent years, Plamondon catches up to these years in the making. It owes its success first in my Camaro, with music of Andre Gagnon, tube starring Steve Fiset. He quickly became one of the fetishes of the 70 authors writing for the same Steve Fiset, Diane Dufresne, Monique Leyrac, Julien Clerc and Johnny Hallyday. After about seventy songs, Plamondon literally explodes with the huge success of Starmania musical written in 1975 with Michel Berger and produced in 1977. This show launches revolutionary fashion of musicals. The legend of Jimmy Cindy, to Notre Dame de Paris, Sand and romantic, and Romeo and Juliet, this type of representation continues to be a huge popular success worldwide, and brings forth each year dozens of little known artists: Garou, Segara, Pelletier, among other. Today even after a recovery in 1992 English (Tycoon including Cindy Lauper and Peter Kingsbery and Cock Robin), Starsailor remains the benchmark in this area. It is intimately linked to the name of Plamondon and provides a solid reputation in Quebec: Le blues du businessman, The world is stone, the one against the other, are the pillars. The man with the golden successSince Starmania, everything is golden key Plamondon. Skillful writer, he can choose his collaborators and interpreters, and does not hide a certain ability to discover talent. And listed in its directory Celine Dion, Robert Charlebois, Julian Cope, Diane Dufresne, Petula Clark, Diane Tell, Nanette Workman and Francoise Hardy. Dedicated to his craft, he's has championed the rights of copyright and s is heavily involved in creating SPACQ (the equivalent of Quebec French SACEM). Luke is now an artist as media that his interpreters. Newspapers, television, interviews, all rush to close this outstanding writer. It is also requested to give birth to the fiber with musical for young performers. We trusted his legendary flair, as in this year 2001, when he was invited into the high-profile French television show Star Academy, which saw many unknown s face in a musical contest of several weeks after which was the recording of an album. Under the spotlight, his protégé Garou, which he wrote much of the album alone, it is also some trouble, when associations to safeguard the child makes a complaint against the author of the song Criminal, featuring a story of love with a girl of fourteen. Charismatic and emblematic of a generation of great music made popular singers, Luc Plamondon remains, sixty years, an exception. He managed to establish itself as author s genius, ardent defender of French song, with its assets to over five hundred songs and dozens of famous arias, in an artistic way, generally, heavily loaded with interpreters.
