Created by Dominique Bigi-dis The C-E Songs is a set of twenty nine songs for really young children from two to six years old. Ideal for school use they refer to important periods happening during the year such as autumn school winter Christmas summer and they are very easy to sing (with a small range and easy intervals). The book is also really attractive for children as the tunes are enjoyable and all the pictures are in black and white to be coloured-in. The C-E Songs can be used in a really fun way or more professionally to help the children discover music and music theory (range nuances ternaryand binary rhythms…)

Francis Poulenc (1899-1963) was an energetic French composer who is known for both his light-hearted instrumental works and his more serious sacred and choral music. Pastourelle was a dance written as one of ten movements for the children's ballet L'Eventail De Jeanne (Jean's Fan) in 1927. Each dance was composed by a different French composer. Only the first movement by Ravel who also gave the first performance of the Ballet on the Piano and Poulenc's eighth movement have endured. An orchestral version was composed at the same time but the original version for Piano is published here.
