"Nouvelle Chanson (French pronunciation: \u200B[nuv\u025Bl \u0283\u0251\u0303s\u0254\u0303], meaning \"New Song\"), derived from the French expression nouvelle sc\u00E8ne fran\u00E7aise, sometimes anglicized as New Chanson, is a musical genre of Chanson which emerged in France in the 90s and developed in the 2000s. This genre takes inspiration from such forefathers of French Chanson as Jacques Brel, Georges Brassens or Barbara (notably none of them recognized in mastermind L\u00E9o Ferr\u00E9's legacy), albeit in a more soft-pop music style."@en .
