Gérard Manset piano sheet music of popular songs

Gérard Manset (born 21 August 1945 in Saint-Cloud, Hauts-de-Seine) is a French singer-songwriter, painter, photographer and writer. He is best known for his musical work. Since 1972, the covers of his albums state his name as simply "Manset". In 1964, Manset was the recipient of the Concours général, and enrolled in the École Nationale Supérieure des Arts Décoratifs. The Salon d'Automne welcomed Manset in its engraving section in 1966. Manset's work was also shown at the Paris Salon. At the same time, Manset approached various French advertising agencies with his drawings, without success. Manset began to play the guitar, but was also interested in the drums. He borrowed his sister's piano book, and began learning to play the piano as well. The mystery that was created around Manset was born from the rarity of his media appearances, his refusal to give concerts, and what has been presented as the ’uncompromising’ character of his work.
