Recorded in 1956 Bonjour Paris is Michel Legrand's first musical homage to the French capital. It's an exciting and precocious work, free of clichés. A breath of fresh air. One senses the urgent young musician eager to master every musical discipline; concerts, records, radio, playing piano, conducting, singing, composing, classical, playing jazz. For all of the versatility and eclecticism Legrand has displayed over a long career, his name is synonymous with cinema. He was to the French New Wave, what Joan Miró was to the surrealists. His music anchored their films. They need his art. Retaining the Parisian theme, this edition is completed by selections from Michel Legrand's Rendez-vous A Paris, which revisits the musical landscapes of the city but now with a spruce 1960's perspective.
