I don't know the answer to that, but if you're checking recordings, the 
lead tune for "La Fete Champetre" (yes I know I've missed out accents, but 
I decided plain text was preferable since everybody would be able to read 
it) is the Teddy Bears' Picnic.  I assume La Fete Champetre is the French 
equivalent of the Teddy Bears' Picnic.

Cheers,

Ian
