Printemps, Avril Carillonne

Printemps, Avril Carillonne

Printemps, Avril Carillonne (English translation: "Springtime, April Rings") was the French entry in the Eurovision Song Contest 1961, performed in French by Jean-Paul Mauric.
The song was performed ninth on the night (following Germany's Lale Andersen with Einmal Sehen Wir Uns Wieder and preceding Switzerland's Franca di Rienzo with Nous Aurons Demain). At the close of voting, it had received 13 points, placing 4th in a field of 16.

The song is in praise of the delights of Spring, with Mauric singing about the sights and sounds of animals coming out of hibernation and the Northern Winter ending.

It was succeeded as French representative at the 1962 Contest by Isabelle Aubret with Un Premier Amour.
