Music reviews of Putumayo Presents: French Playground
Music Review: excellent for pronunciation
Rating: 5 Stars
I'm a beginner French learner. I got this product for pronunciation practice. It has lyrics for the songs in the package. You can follow the lyrics when you try to sing. There are 4 easy, 4 intermediate and 4 difficult songs, I can say.
Description of Putumayo Presents: French Playground
Putumayo Kids is committed to introducing children to other cultures through fun, upbeat world and folk music. These CD's feature songs with child-friendly lyrics and liner notes that educate and inspire cultural curiosity. A musical rendez-vous of fun French and French Creole songs that will delight children of all ages. This collection features 12 songs by artists from France, Quebec, the Caribbean and Africa. Information about the songs and lyrics in English and French can be found in the accompanying liner notes.What a welcome change this collection is! Completely free of the arch, cloying ickiness that sometimes informs even the most well-intentioned kids' music offerings, these tunes may well help create a vanguard of pint-sized, sophisticated (in the best sense of the word!) world citizens. While not all of the selections were originally composed with this market in mind, the music is nonetheless delightfully child-appropriate in content, rhythmic bounciness and melodic saturation. The producers have rightly assumed that youngsters are small but sentient beings whose developing tastes and interests need to be engaged and encouraged. The styles employed evoke a nostalgic yet ultra-contemporary enfant boulevardier's world of caf?s, bicyclettes with bells, bals musette and le jazz hot, so that parents will also be charmed and not find themselves left out of the experience, or worse, rolling their eyes and diving for cover. The songs not only reflect daily life as encountered by children living in France but accurately portray that nation's modern cultural melting pot -- where immigrants and visitors from Africa, the Caribbean and North America, regardless of encroaching ultra-right isolationism, have indelibly graced the national consciousness with their own traditions and dialects. --Christina Roden
