Title

Rap La Fontaine

Description

1991 Rap La Fontaine. CD. 10 fables embedded in jazz arrangements, plus the arrangements without texts. Musiques de Dominique bouvier et Georges Sandri. Editions: J.L.B.E. Studio de la Nation. Herisson Vert/Warm-Up SA. From P.J. Music UK through Ebay. Extra copy from an unknown source.

This disc surprised me. Rap turns out to be a great way to understand La Fontaine! The rap artist presents each fable quite briskly. Jump on the bus, because it is leaving fast and moving fast! Each fable is given first in its mixed form, with music and text, and then only the musical part is played – perhaps so that one can oneself rap? I could not identify what is titled "Le Grenouille Et Le Boeuf." It seems not to be La Fontaine's "Le Grenouille qui veut se faire aussi grosse que le Boeuf."
