Regarded as France's national chanteuse, singer, songwriter and actress Édith Piaf (1915-1963) also became one of the country’s greatest international stars. This selection spans her career from the years 1946 to 1961. It includes all of her big hits, among them the perennial "La Vie en rose" and "Non, je ne regrette rien".

I want to make people cry even when they don’t understand my words. I’ve always wanted to sing, just as I’ve always known that one day I would have my own niche in the annals of song. It was a feeling I had. Singing is a way of escaping. It’s another world. When I sing I’m no longer on earth.” – ÉDITH PIAF
