Information about the piece

The first collection of graded French song sheet music, CrocK’MusiC offers a clear progression from level 1 to 9, designed by piano teachers. The works, drawn primarily from the French chanson repertoire, immediately resonate with students: they build on familiar melodies, stimulate listening, facilitate sight-reading and recreate a direct connection with the instrument.

Technique ceases to be an obstacle and becomes a springboard; CrocK’MusiC is not an alternative to the traditional repertoire, it is a parallel path that leads back to it naturally.

The piano transcription by Patrice Bourgès Rouhaut of this major work composed by Pascal Obispo for Florent Pagny has been adapted here to strike a perfect balance between musical fidelity and pedagogical accessibility, while meeting the demands of the highest levels.

Difficulty level: ⑨ (Difficult Pieces)
This score is ideal for students wishing to tackle a highly technically demanding repertoire.
Learning focuses on:
- Rhythm: a steady left-hand octave pattern, with melodic complexity in the right hand.
- Technique: execution of various technical challenges in both hands, with a harmonised right hand requiring technique and attack.
- Presentation: A clear layout in E minor, carefully engraved with complete fingering.
