For me formidable

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.

Aline Sans’s piano transcription of this absolute Charles Aznavour standard is adapted here to offer a perfect balance between the spirit of the big band and virtuosic piano writing, worthy of the greatest jazz arrangements. A true feat of “franglais” written in 1963, this song is a concentrate of humour and swing

Difficulty level: ⑨ (Difficult pieces)
This level 9 score represents the culmination of the collection, ideal for advanced pianists wishing to explore the swing style.
Learning focuses on:
- Rhythm: absolute mastery of the “swing feel” and off-beats, demanding total independence to make the left hand groove on its own.
- Technique: work on enriched jazz chords, “pearly” velocity runs and left-hand leaps.
- 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.
