Discover the enchanting world of "ronde" in Lympstone, Exmouth, Devon - where A La Ronde stands tall as a unique 16-sided house. This architectural marvel is a testament to the creativity and ingenuity of its builders. As you explore this extraordinary structure, immerse yourself in the melodies of Vieilles Chansons et Rondes. The vibrant colours of lithographs bring to life timeless tunes like "Il pleut, il pleut, Bergere, " evoking images of raindrops falling gently on lush meadows. Cadet Rousselle dances across another lithograph, his mischievous spirit captured perfectly. And as you journey through these musical vignettes, "En revenant d'Auvergne" transports you to picturesque landscapes with every note played. But beware. Le Tour takes center stage with a warning: take heed and be cautious. Yet amidst all the excitement and adventure lies a lullaby that soothes your soul - "Fais dodo, Colas. " Its gentle melody carries you off into peaceful slumber. In this whimsical realm created by Vieilles Chansons et Rondes' lithographs, nature beckons us to wander no more in dense forests with "Nous n'irons plus au bois. " Instead, let's gather together and sing joyfully while planting cabbages - just as we learn from "Savez-vous planter les choux?" Underneath the moonlit sky shines an ethereal beauty captured by Au Clair De La Lune. Its soft glow illuminates memories shared around campfires while singing songs like J'ai du bon tabac or Tremp ton pain Marie. And finally, we encounter Le Roi Dagobert himself in all his regal glory. This lively lithograph reminds us that even kings can have moments of silliness and laughter.
