The rich heritage of French-Canadian folk music dates back several centuries. Robert has chosen three of these songs to create a musical portrait of this colorful culture. The opening piece is the jaunty and dance-like “Monsieur Lecuré,” followed by the hauntingly beautiful “Blanche Comme la Neige.” The piece concludes with the spirited march “Vive la Canadienne!,” which features a drum break and builds to an exciting, rousing finish. The creative use of harmonizations, key changes and dynamic contrasts gives this piece a sophisticated sound and intensity of a much more advanced piece. Dur: 3:35
