Nòva cançon

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Nòva cançon (pronounced [ˌnɔβokanˈsu]), or Nòva chançon ([ˌnɔβotʃanˈsu]), or New Song/Singing in English, is a musical renewal wave that swept through Occitania in the 1970s. Its leaders were Joan Pau Verdier, Claudi Martí, Patric, Maria Roanet and Mans de Breish, most of whom are still very active singers. Nòva cançon was a phenomenon similar to Catalonia's Nova cançó.
