This collection concerns the chansonniers Stéphane FRANÇOIS, Charles MERCIER, Francis MOAL, Ifig MOAL, Louis PAGE of Saint- Pol-de-Léon. The Francis MOAL' collection had been recovered by René CABIOCH. Yann PLOUGOULM was able to consult him thanks to Émile STÉFAN, the son of the singer François STÉFAN.

A total of 261 PDFs have been added. They mainly concern songs that also exist in Oral Tradition.

Correspondences between Broadsheets and Oral Tradition
The identification of the songs collected in the Oral Tradition that can also be found on popular prints has been finalized: 332 songs have been identified. For these, the titles and abstracts have been harmonized in both parts of the site (Broadsheet and Oral Tradition).

New: Audio Illustration

Christian Morvan's 78-rpm collection offers 113 songs on Popular Broadsides, corresponding to 79 standard songs.
These interpretations are varied: a-capella singing, accompanied singing, choir. They represent a sample of what was done between 1932 and 1955, often far removed from what we are used to hearing today.

The following additions made extensive use of Gérard BAILLOUD’s research "L’imprimerie Lédan à Morlaix (1805 à 1880)" published by Skol in 1999.
