Overview
Une collection de chansons d’un grand auteur-compositeur québécois pour éveiller l'oreille musicale chez les tout-petits.
Dans l’univers fantaisiste du grand auteur-compositeur québécois Claude Léveillée, les animaux possèdent de fabuleux talents. Les chiens ont appris à pêcher et les vaches à jouer du piano. Même les grenouilles chantent du Mozart. L’album réunit les chansons créées par Clo-Clo pour l’émission Domino, diffusée à Radio-Canada dans les années 50. Chaque pièce musicale célèbre avec entrain la vie à la ferme et celle de ses occupants, la puce comme le cheval. Les enfants se délecteront des délicieuses onomatopées et des illustrations expressives qui les accompagnent. Hi-han, meuh-meuh!
Le disque comprend 14 chansons.
An homage to the beloved creator of Clo-Clo the Clown, this anthology revisits his early days in television through children’s songs performed by contemporary young singers on the French and Canadian music scenes. The 14 songs in the storybook and CD give children a glimpse of animals they've surely never encountered before. Among them are Irma—the chicken who doesn't lay eggs—in “À la ferme de Grand-père” (On Grandpa's Farm), fleas that travel the world on every other animal's back in “Le choeur des puces” (The Flea Choir), and chickens that are fed up with hatching eggs and go on strike in “Les poules” (The Chickens).
