Description
French is a Romance language, meaning it has roots in Latin, the language used by the ancient Romans. Besides France, the Francophone (French-speaking) areas of the world include 25 other countries in Europe, Africa, the Caribbean parts of Canada, and even the United States. French music, similarly, has been influenced by popular sounds from around the world, including jazz, reggae and African rhythms.
French Playground provides an entertaining musical journey to France, the province of Quebec, and beyond. Featured artists include Pakita, Polo, Chantal Chamberland, Dominique Dimey, Catherine Durand, Yves Lambert, Ariane Moffatt and Bénabar & Les associés.
