Rwandan singer Corneille is one of a growing number of young African recording artistes who have made a big impact on the French pop scene, though his success began in Canada.
His first album ‘Parce qu’on Vient de Loin’ was a hit in Europe and North America, selling over half a million copies and his profile in Britain was raised considerably following a report about him on BBC Radio 4’s ‘Today’ programme.
The follow-up, Les Marchands de Rêves, is every bit as striking with a soft but strong vocal presence over well crafted backing. The addition of acoustic versions, remixes, live tracks and film clips has resulted in this 4CD set which represents a complete perspective of Corneille’s musical career so far.
