An example of poems and songs by women during the Occupation». She will be accompanied by Les Lunaisiens, with Arnaud Marzorati singing, and Pierre Cussac on the accordion. At the end of the Second World War, composer Paul Arma offered a series of radio broadcasts entitled La Résistance qui chante, in which he presented the songs he had collected with his wife Edmée during the Occupation. Today, this collection, entitled Le Folklore de la Résistance, lists nearly 1,300 songs, one third of which use original compositions, while the others use familiar tunes.
