Michel nous a quittés aujourd'hui. La France pleure un immense Maestro, un homme qui était resté si simple et si jeune. Mes sincères condoléances à Macha et à tous ses proches.
Legrand avec Aznavour ....les deux grands de la musique ...J.Halliday " le taulier " lol ! peut se rhabiller....lui qui s'est cassé la gueule à las Vegas !
How attentive , gracious and brilliant the great Legrand is following the orchestration of the great composer John Williams -between the both of them , who have probably written hundreds and hundreds of magnificent scores -2 giants of the music world on that same stage Legrand and Williams wish I could have been at this incredible concert.
What a combination! John Williams and Michel Legrand with the Boston Pops all at their prime!! The performance is, of course, utterly flawless and breathtakingly beautiful!
This is a rare meeting of a a writer known for his big adventurous music and another one known for his lush romantic sweeps, and what better work to put their artistry on than the big, romantic "Yentl" score!
Legrand's masterpiece is outstanding... and his arrengements just equally incredible. What a tragedy his best score ever was lost in a fire and never saw the light of day in a proper underscore release. I only hope the 40th anniv. edition we're gonna get in 15 days from now includes the AMAZING end titles suite from the movie. Williams and Legrand, what a treasure!
Hi , are you talking about the universal fire ? didn't know the yentl masters were among the victims :( . speaking about "the best", it's always a matter of opinion. my mother was listening to the yentl vynil in loop in the 80's, after seeing the movie in theater. so even if as a musician, i can clearly accept the fact (lol) that it's a fabulous soundtrack, because of the "loop" effect, it's clearly not my favorite ;)... (i don't have a fav soundtrack from Mr Legrand, but love tunes from here and there, from different movies and Tv release).
Superb Performance all around, the combinations of two musical geniuses and the fantabulous, heavenly, divine Philharmonic Orchestra.could not asked for more. Maravillosa, Bellissimo.❤️❤️🎹🎹🌹🌹🎵🎵💕💕🎻🎻💋💋🎺🎺😍
as a fun story, (i'm the owner of this channel), I studied jazz piano with the rehearsal session pianist of michel legrand on a movie that michel scored called "3 places pour le 26", featuring yves montand (original singer of the autumn leaves song). the movie was featuring as well Mhatilda May, an actress who can be seen in the funny/awful movie Life force :D.

/Christiane. A concert with Michel Legrand was scheduled last September in Athens and I was so looking forward to seeing him "live" finally ! Unfortunately, because of bad weather conditions the concert was cancelled. And now he passed away...so sad.
Lol, no !! if you were french you'll know that michel always had glasses from an old grand ma and this hair cut lol... this concert is from 1992 :) i'll add the date in the infos :).
Correction: Only one true composer here, and that's Michel Legrand. Williams was merely a copy cat of post romantic composers that came before him. Legrand was a true original.
+jsphotos the amount of **** censured **** comments told on all of williams music i posted here is very impressive. each day i'm impressed by how far some people can go in the negative and non objectivity by telling .... whatever... the lack of knowledge expressed is very impressive. you think that legrand is true original ? how do you think he learned music ? (i studied piano with one of Michel Legrand's pianist). Music is about copying, and transforming, improving the learning to something else. it's all about copy, and inspiration and that since the beginning. without the ability to be inspired by someone else from the past, music would just not exist. the amount of wrong notes Michel can miss while playing in concert or on TV can be pretty big. guys, i don't know where you come from, or what you know in music, but your both comments are ... well, just re-read yourselves ...
+martyprod2 I'm a musician and was involved for many years in the music industry. Sure,ALL music is derivative, but how many people go around humming a John Williams tune? Williams is a good film composer, but he made that reputation by composing for blockbuster movies. Compared to someone like Ennio Morricone, Williams doesn't hold a candle. Music IS subjective, but I find a very distinct *sameness* to Williams' compositions. I don't deny he's a great film composer, but he's far from the greatest! For instance, he's not even in the same class as Herrmann, or Korngold as a composer.
+jsphotos I suggest you to remember who was sat next to Mr Morriconne at the Oscars, and who Ennio thanked... at this level of music it's not anymore a matter of who is the best or not, just taste and a matter of opinions.

Such a tremendous loss to the world of music...he and his talent will be greatly missed.
Michel Legrand, how you crazy piano master!
I so wish I was there !
Thank you very much for the share :!
M y 2 favorites composers....AMAZING and MAGIC!!! Thank U lords!
yes i agree, seldom do you see two contemporary musical genius in one stage.
Truly the piano is an extension of his imaginative, and creative instincts. you just have to WATCH WHAT HAPPENS, and THE WINDMILLS OF YOUR MIND..

Two music gods at their best! Thank you for this video! :)
May he rest in peace
Deux grands de la musique dédiée entre autre pour le cinéma !
My two favorite movie composers.
C'est tres exquis!!!
Me alegro de haber coincicido en el tiempo con este genio sobre la tierra.
santiram2
Good to see that they're friends even if Williams replaced Legrand on THE MAN WHO LOVED CAT DANCING (1973)
Awesome. What a Great performance. Would make Barbra proud.
who says that two composers with almost diametrically opposed styles can't work on one stage.
genius has no ego. and the result iss this - MAGIC!!!!
Not so opposite. They have the jazz in common !
Supebe Michel !
and here's Schubert who arrives at the end!
❤❤❤😓😓😓😓
👍
Vous imaginez le dialogue entre ces deux là quand ils se rencontraient : leur musique est si brillante, savante, éclatante et si joyeuse...
ça n'a pas empeché "Mr Legrand" d'insulter "son ami" (Williams) et quelques autres (Desplat etc) dans une interview il y a quelques années.

Par les jazzmens belges et realisateurs ou chanteurs de mon pays amis de ma famille

Et a la rose rouge .et eux aussi
Moi j etais gamine tres chipie ( 1945)

anybody know when this was performed and filmed? early 80s perhaps? (by the hair and glasses)
Lol, no !! if you were french you'll know that michel always had glasses from an old grand ma and this hair cut lol... this concert is from 1992 :) i'll add the date in the infos :).

so, what are these two known for?
you're kidding, right ?
Correction: Only one true composer here, and that's Michel Legrand. Williams was merely a copy cat of post romantic composers that came before him. Legrand was a true original.
+organboi lol !!! ....
+organboi Agree completely. Williams is NOT an original composer;most of his music is derivative and has a *sameness* that is really, really boring!
+jsphotos the amount of **** censured **** comments told on all of williams music i posted here is very impressive. each day i'm impressed by how far some people can go in the negative and non objectivity by telling .... whatever... the lack of knowledge expressed is very impressive.

Music is about copying, and transforming, improving the learning to something else. it's all about copy, and inspiration and that since the beginning. without the ability to be inspired by someone else from the past, music would just not exist.
the amount of wrong notes Michel can miss while playing in concert or on TV can be pretty big.
guys, i don't know where you come from, or what you know in music, but your both comments are ... well, just re-read yourselves ...

at this level of music it's not anymore a matter of who is the best or not, just taste and a matter of opinions.
Telling that Ennio is better than Williams (or the reverse) is like telling that Apple is better than Banana, that Herbie is better than chick or Mc Coy, or Bill is the best and the others are beginner etc .... just a matter of taste and opinions, absolutly impossible to be objective at this level of musicianship.
you tell music is subjective but it seems you don't beleive in what you tell.
i'm impressed that you didn't told the usual cliché that Williams stole everything from Korngold. at least, you didn't told it. one point for you for this !
