1956fr

According to TV listings magazine Télévision Programme Magazine, RTF used the radio program "Le palmarès de la chanson inédite" to choose the French entries for the Eurovision Song Contest 1956.[1] "Le palmarès de la chanson inédite" aired regularly on Saturday evenings on Programme parisien in 1956 and 1957.[2][3] The program was directed by Michel du Plessis and presented by Maurice Yvain and Louis Poterat, with an orchestra led by Franck Pourcel accompanying the artists.[3]

Of the two French songs chosen for the Eurovision Song Contest, only "Il est là" can be retrieved in radio listings as participating in the program, in this case for the program aired on 5 May 1956, and sung by Marina Audrey.[4]

The final of the previous, second season was held on 31 March 1956, with ten songs chosen by listeners.[11] [so the programs after that seem to have been the selection rounds for Lugano, prose article necessary]

The program continued to be aired on 26 May (Le Monde radio program) and several times in June and July 1956 (INA). Finals of the season were held on 7 July (Le Monde 07-07-1956, p. 13).

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[12] => 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.[13] She seemed to have sung explicit / erotic songs regularly.[14] She started singing in the Alhambra in 1956, a few weeks ahead of the contest in Lugano.[13] The news report from 8 May doesn't mention the ESC.[13]

1956lu

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

1957fr

Both the singer (Paule Desjardins) and the composer (Guy Lafarge) had been chosen by 21 February: On that day, Deutsches Fernsehen published a press release on the upcoming contest, saying that Paule Desjardins would sing a song by Guy Lafarge for France.[16] The press release also names the singers and composers of all other countries, adding that "at the time of going to press, Belgium, Denmark and Luxembourg hadn't named their participants yet."[16]

1960fr

Known members of the French jury were: Jacques Péberay (jury president and lawyer), Josyane Perez (shoe vendor), Marcel Corbolin (horse butcher), Jacqueline Martin (housewife), Michel Benita (bus driver), Robert Soulodre (engineer student), Jacques Cagnac (teacher), Anne Caprile [fr] (actress), Jean-Louis Vergne (painter), Claudine Francke (employee at PTT).[17]

1964fr

At the start of the rehearsals in Copenhagen, France was among the favourites to win.[18]

1965fr

The song "N'avoue jamais" and the singer Guy Mardel were chosen in an internal selection organised by ORTF.[19] The singer and the song were announced only a few days ahead of the contest.[19] 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.[19]

1966fr

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.[20]
