Claude Nougaro, Maurice Vander
ArmstrongThe first collection of French song sheet music graded by level of difficulty, CrocK’MusiC offers a clear path from level 1 to 9, designed by piano teachers. The works, drawn mainly from the French chanson repertoire, speak immediately to the student: they build on familiar melodies, stimulate listening, make reading easier and recreate a direct link with the instrument.
Technique stops being an obstacle and becomes a lever; CrocK’MusiC is not an alternative to the traditional repertoire, it is a parallel path that leads naturally back to it.
Based on the traditional “Let My People Go”, Patrice Bourgès Rouhaut’s piano transcription of this classic by Claude Nougaro and Maurice Vander is adapted here to offer a perfect balance between musical fidelity and pedagogical accessibility.
Difficulty level: ④ (Easy pieces)
This score is ideal for students wishing to take a technical step forward.
Learning focuses on:
- Rhythm: an approach to the “jazzy” style with increased rhythmic challenges and the introduction of triple metre.
- Technique: an execution requiring more speed.
- Clarity: an airy layout in A minor, careful and complete engraving with fingerings.
Crock'Music scores include the lyrics and are printed on sturdy natural Rives 170g paper.
These individual scores are available in songbook form, but also as downloads.
