"Frantic Francophilic Flambe (Crêpes Suzette)"
Frantic Francophilic Flambe (Crêpes Suzette) is No. 2 in the collection of songs written about special desserts. All of the texts for the collection were written by personal friend, Joe Finetti. It is a level 4 piece for SATB Choir & Piano and would be a great fit for high school, college, & community choirs.
A light and sweet piece set in dance like style of a French folk song, with intensity building as the moments of the flambe approach. A wonderfully elegant, lighthearted, yet flamboyant piece.
Text
Frantic Francophilic Flambe (Crêpes Suzette) - Joe Finetti
On the griddle pour the batter
Make us flatter than a platter
And never mind the chatter
That we just might make you fatter.
Fold in quarters, nothing thicker
Soak us thoroughly with liquor
Orange flavored is the trick, sir
The next step is rather quicker.
Light a match and then apply,
Flames will shoot up to the sky,
Crepes suzette are just “to die…”
“Magnifique!” your guests will sigh.
