Veronique Chalot was born in Normandy in the north of France, but it was in Paris that she first became interested in traditional French folk music. In 1974 she landed in Rome where she soon earned a small, but dedicated following. In 1979 she recorded her first studio effort, J'ai vu le loup, for the Italian Materiali Sonori label. Over the past 30+ years she has given hundreds of concerts, presenting her repertoire of traditional French / Italian folk songs and building awareness of that fascinating patrimony of antique melodies and dance rhythms. Since 2005 she has played with Veziana, an ensemble dedicated to early music from both sides of the Pyrenees.
