French Renaissance chansons meet songs by Leonard Cohen: a great modern singer-songwriter, a “troubadour”, passed away in 2016. This programme, is a tribute to his art, and provides a link to the French Renaissance chanson.Leonard Cohen, who liked to call himself a “chansonnier”, grew up in French-speaking Montréal, Canada. He is appreciated as a poet and for his sensitive musical feeling for the word. This project connects Cohen musically and poetically with previous generations of songwriters. The famous 16th century chanson Susanne un jour by Orlando di Lasso meets Cohen’s Suzanne. Josquin’s Adieu mes amours or Dances by Pierre Attaingnant (Paris, 1529) combine with Cohen’s songs and the eras converge. With knowledge of Renaissance music practices, new diminutions on Cohen’s music emerge, including new chordal and circumlocutory accompaniments for viola da gamba or lute based on late 16th and 17th century models.
