A few weeks prior to the national final, RTF asked 20 record labels to send their best songs. 15 songs were submitted, and RTF chose five of them for the national final.[2]
Et voici quelques airs
The music show Et voici quelques airs was used as the national final. It took place on 7 February 1958 at 20:25 CET and lasted 33 minutes.[3][4] It was produced by Claude Dagues and hosted by Шаблон:Ill.[2] Five songs were presented. They were sung by their composers or lyricists, with the exception of "Musique magique", sung by singer Jocelyne Jocya.[2]
The interval acts included Шаблон:Ill and Christiane Legrand performing "Marjolaine", Шаблон:Ill performing "Buenas noches, mi amor", André Claveau performing "Toi l'amour" and Daniele George performing "Mandoline amoureuse".[2]
A jury consisting of 13 music and television professionals decided the winner: Jean Marsac (jury president), Emmanuel Robert, Paul Peyre, Шаблон:Ill, Шаблон:Ill, Armand Lanoux, Шаблон:Ill, Шаблон:IllШаблон:Efn, Шаблон:Ill, Шаблон:Ill, Jacques Seignette, Paul Durand and Eddie Barclay.[2] Only the winning song and the runner-up were announced by jury president Jean Marsac.[2]
