Album Notes & Community Reviews

G茅rard Manset's 'La mort d'Orion' is a conceptually framed French art-pop work built around mythological and cosmic imagery. Its orchestral arrangements and literary approach helped establish Manset as a singular figure in chanson-derived progressive pop rather than a conventional vari茅t茅 singer.
