Nouvelle Vague is the title that captures the creative wave of music in Paris in the 1950s, where young artists have imprinted poems and melodies on their songs on poems.
Usually the performer was accompanied by an instrument, guitar or piano, depending on the instrument played by the composer himself.
In Greece the composer Yiannis Spanos introduced this Nouvelle Vague, who wrote and published at that time many of his songs in Paris where he lived.
In Athens, with the support of the producer Alekos Patsifas, they introduced the title Nouvelle Vague in Greek discography.
Composers such as Giannis Spanos, Lakis Pappas, Notis Mavroudis, Dionysis Savvopoulos, Linos Kokotos and others wrote at that time, before the mid-60s, leaving many important songs in the Greek repertoire. In this way, they re-introduced Greek poetry and our poets.
Well known performers of this genre are e.g. Arletta, Yiannis Poulopoulos, Popi Asteriadi, Lakis Pappas, Dimitra Galani, Dionyssis Savvopoulos, George Zografos, Rena Koumioti and others.
