Tribute[]
In 1983, the year of his 100th birthday, Eugène Bizeau was invited by journalist Jacques Erwan[2] to meet, during a debate, with the young public of Printemps de Bourges. As a result, the singers Gérard Pierron, Alain Meilland and Michel Grange created the show during which they performed Bizeau's poems, which they had set to music (Songe creux – Eugène Bizeau/Gérard Pierron and Pacifiste — Eugène Bizeau/Alain Meilland).
In 1986 the Académie Charles-Cros awarded its prize in the heritage category to this record. Eugène Bizeau was 103 years old.
