Petite Fleur
"Petite Fleur" is a successful instrumental written by Sidney Bechet and recorded by him in January 1952, first with the Sidney Bechet All Stars and later with Claude Luter and his Orchestra.
In 1959 it was an international hit as a clarinet solo by Monty Sunshine with Chris Barber's Jazz Band, and for Bob Crosby and the Bobcats. Following the Chris Barber instrumental recording, lyrics were added by Fernand Bonifay and Mario Bua in the same year.
