ESC Year

[edit]

1956

[edit]

The transmission didn't run smooth for France either: RTF's technical report ("Rapport du chef de chaîne") for 24 May 1956 (catalog) held in the INA archives mentions a disruption of images ("panne d'image") from 21:28 to 21:31 CET, locating the source of disruption in Utliburg.[1] RTF made an excuse after the performance of "Le Temps perdu".[1]

1957

[edit]

A preliminary list of participating countries published by Belgian magazine De TV-kijker in early 1957 included Monaco.[2], see also: Belgian De radio- en televisieweek in February 1957.[3]

[elaboration/more info necessary] Anaid Iplicjian took the votes from the international juries by telephone, assisted by an employee of Deutsche Bundespost.[4]

[prose] Iplicjian "commented" for German TV = no commentary?[5]

Country per year

[edit]

1956fr

[edit]

The final of the previous, second season was held on 31 March 1956, with ten songs chosen by listeners.[6]

On 20 April, a press report about Mathé Altéry mentions her various activities and an upcoming disc ("Le printemps") but doesn't mention the ESC[7] => maybe a hint that she wasn't yet chosen as French representative at that time and that selection only took place in the last month prior to the contest?

Dany Dauberson sang in cabarets, later in music halls, such as L'Olympia and Alhambra.[8] She seemed to have sung explicit / erotic songs regularly.[9] She started singing in the Alhambra in 1956, a few weeks ahead of the contest in Lugano.[8] The news report from 8 May doesn't mention the ESC.[8]

1956lu

[edit]

Radio Luxembourg aired the music show “Kermesse aux chansons” on 12 May 1956 at 15:00 CET.[10] Michèle Arnaud participated in it.[10] Was this a song presentation or a selection?

1957ch

[edit]

The Swiss national final was held in St. Moritz on 11 February 1957 at 21:00 CET (22:00 UTC).[11] It was broadcast on TSR and scheduled for a duration of 75 minutes.[11] It was directed by Franco Marazzi.[11]

1957de

[edit]

[prose] "Zwei auf einem Pferd" "split" by NF: so neither at beginning nor end but in between?[12]

[prose] ten points from each juror[13] => 80 points => 8 jurors = WDR, NDR, Bremen, SWF, SDR (Stuttgart), BR, RIAS and HR?

1957fr

[edit]

Reception:

Newspaper La Croix wrote that the program would considerably improve if the artists for each song were chosen in a better way.[14] L'Aurore estimated that Robert Beauvais did a good job as a presenter.[15] L'Aurore otherwise complained about the misleading title of the program since there were neither seven songs presented nor seven juries in each heat.[16] It also said that the explanation of the rules took too much time, and that the staging was lacking originality.[16]

"La Belle Amour" was called "nicely nostalgic" by L'Aurore, and "Les Aurochs" a "song of a rare stupidity".[17]

1957lu

[edit]

"Tant de peine" was written by J. P. Kemmer with lyrics by Jacques Jabert.[18]

[PP] When arriving at Frankfurt, Danièle Dupré didn't know her song yet, and had to rehearse it intensively the night before the international final.[4] In an interview with the French OGAE magazine, she said she was impressed with the orchestral arrangement and that she did only one rehearsal.[19]

Eurovision Song Contest 1957 was broadcast in Luxembourg on Télé-Luxembourg.[20] [there is no radio broadcast in the radio program of Radio Luxembourg for that day[20]].

1964fr

At the start of the rehearsals in Copenhagen, France was among the favourites to win.[22]

1965fr

[edit]

The song "N'avoue jamais" and the singer Guy Mardel were chosen in an internal selection organised by ORTF.[23] The singer and the song were announced only a few days ahead of the contest.[23] Observers saw a lack of transparency in the selection and criticised ORTF for both the selection process and the late revealing of the French entry.[23]

1966fr

[edit]

No official accounts of the French viewing figures of the contest are known to exist. However, French newspaper Le Monde reported that concerts by Charles Trenet and Gilbert Bécaud held on the same evening as the Eurovision Song Contest had an half-empty auditorium.[24]

1967fr

[edit]

RTF received around 100 submissions of unpublished songs by different record labels. The song was chosen by a jury of musicians and songwriters, which included Georges Van Parys, Paul Misraki, Jacques Loussier and Jean Wiener.[25]
