Legrand Piano

At the age of 84 at this writing, composer, arranger, conductor, and pianist Michel Legrand has written over 200 film and television scores in addition to many memorable songs. He is best known for his often haunting film music and scores, such as The Umbrellas of Cherbourg (1964) and The Thomas Crown Affair (1968), featuring the song The Windmills of Your Mind for which he won his first Academy Award. Over his long career, Legrand recorded more than a hundred albums. He has won three Oscars (out of 13 nominations) and five Grammys. He is a virtuoso jazz and classical pianist, an accomplished arranger and conductor who performs with orchestras all over the world. While on a visit to the U.S. in 1958, Legrand collaborated with such musicians as Miles Davis, John Coltrane, Bill Evans, Phil Woods, Ben Webster, Hank Jones, and Art Farmer in an album of inventive orchestrations of jazz standards titled Legrand Jazz. The following year, back in Paris with bassist Guy Pedersen and percussionist Gus Wallez, he recorded an album of Paris-themed songs arranged for jazz piano trio, Legrand Piano, reissued here.
