Thanks, Q! It's interesting to me, because I'm playing for a fundraiser for the local theater next weekend and they've chosen a French cafe theme. So they ask an a cappella chorus leader who also plays New England contra dance tunes on accordion and Irish tunes on concertina, not to mention English morris tunes! So in addition to French Canadian dances, we're doing Alouette, Vive la compagnie, and La Vie en Rose!

The other reason I'm bemused is that I mentored a young French woman a few years ago when I was an elementary music teacher, and she suggested Vive la compagnie as a good old French folk song!
