For more than two centuries, the French folksong has remained perhaps the strongest musical link between Canada and France.

Songs included in this music book: Cecelia, La belle rose, A la Claire Fontaine, Le chant d’Isabeau, Ah, qui me passera le bois?, Petite Jeanneton, Digue-dindaine, En roulant ma boule, Au jardin de mon pere, Gai lon la, gai la rosier, D’ou viens tu?, L’Assemblée d’amour, Je me fais maîtresse, Joli coeur de rose, La fille du roi d’Espagne.
