February 24th – Michel Legrand’s birthday.
Michel Legrand - a genius film score composer, a world class musician.
He was truly prolific, having successfully pursued his dreams, ambitions.
3 Oscars’ winner was also a phenomenal arranger, jazz pianist, conductor.
Michel’s versatility inevitably was a fact, fate, mission and genetic factor.
"Umbrellas of Cherbourg," “The Thomas Crown Affair,” “Yentl” outstand.
Legrand’s shared his talent and established his own music style or brand.
It is impossible to find a person in the world who can’t appreciate his art.
Michel was tender, sensual, deep, open minded, innovative, gentle, smart.
Legrand was a virtuoso in everything he did in life, he owned God given gift.
His music deeply touched human souls and hearts giving it a spiritual lift.
Michel had never stopped evolving and expanding professional horizons.
Having composed for various performers, my favorite is Barbra Streisand.
Today is February 24th, Michel Legrand’s, maestro’s birthday celebration.
He had deserved our heartfelt feedback of his work - our standing ovation.
We recently Messieurs Legrand much happiness, health, joy and bliss!
He had sincerely been appreciated, valued, thought of as a legend-Wiz!
