Ainsi soit je

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.

Jean Rieux’s piano transcription of this melancholy work by Mylène Farmer is adapted here to offer a perfect balance between the ethereal atmosphere of the original and demanding piano writing, while meeting the requirements of the advanced levels.

Difficulty level: ⑧ (Difficult pieces)
This level 8 score is ideal for students wishing to tackle a repertoire of high technical precision.
Learning focuses on:
- Rhythm: mastering the regularity and fluidity of the arpeggios to support the melody.
- Technique: executing various difficulties in both hands, including work on a pearly touch, soft dynamics and playing a harmonised theme.
- Clarity: an airy layout in E 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.
