4 Three French Folk Songsarr. Glenda E.
Franklin. Au Clair de la Lune; Fais Dodo and Le
Coucou make up this mini-collection; they may be
performed together or separately. The set opens
with a lilting waltz, follows with a tender lullaby,
and concludes with a playful cuckoo song. Each of
the brief movements may be sung in French (IPA
guides included), English (accurately translated), or
a combination of both. This is a great way to teach
French to your women's choir.

in the soundtrack of the Oscar-nominated movie
"Invictus," and served as South Africa's "battle call"
at the 2010 World Cup. This is essential multicultural
programming! Highly recommended!
