Description:
Naji Hakim (*1955), French composer of Lebanese descent, not only writes pieces for his principal instrument, the organ; even his piano works are characterized by many different sources, his major source of inspiration often being folk songs such as 'Auprès de ma blonde' whose melody dates back to the 16th century. The theme, which is introduced with a typical march rhythm, is developed in seven entertaining variations. One of the most popular French folk songs, interpreted by Elvis Presley and Doris Day among others, still is sung and played today. The present arrangement is an effective addition to the repertoire of every pianist.
