| description | During the first half of the 20th Century, songs depicting actors of the criminal underworld gradually vanish from stages. This can be explained by many intertwined factors – to put it in a nutshell, the evolutions of entertainments, stages, publics and star system – which result in ousting criminal complaints from stages at the end of the 19th Century. It doesn’t mean that crime and criminals totally disappear from musical scenes however. On the contrary, complaint stands as one of the main sources of inspiration of the artistic creation staged in café-concert, which produced new genres in those years. The realistic song in particular is stylistically and musically rooted in complaint. Complaint continues to exist through the 20th Century through stage and cinematographic performance, which perpetuates its memory to the listeners. |
