C’est l’Aviron is a French-Canadian folk song from the vicinity of Quebec. It is a joyful song in which lovely ladies, a romantic boat trip and some liquor play their roles. It is the first arrangement, Hans Oosterwal made for DOS Amigos, and it still is one of my personal favourites with its warm and mellow sound. Beware of the variation, it has some added virtuosity that presents a challenge.
