Fuir le bonheur

The 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.

Patrice Bourgès Rouhaut’s piano transcription of this gem of melancholy written by Serge Gainsbourg is adapted here to offer a perfect balance between musical fidelity and pedagogical accessibility.

Difficulty level: ⑥ (Fairly easy pieces)
This score is ideal for students wishing to tackle a repertoire of high technical precision.
Learning focuses on:
- Rhythm: regularity of the right-hand quavers.
- Technique: difficulty in the interpretation and speed of the harmonised melody, use of the sustain pedal.
- Clarity: an airy layout in C major, 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.
