Legrand is very much a case-by-case composer for me.The views expressed in this post are entirely my own and do not reflect the opinions of maintitles.net, or for that matter, anyone else. http://www.racksandtags.com/falkirkbairn -

I do (and still bummed that I was not able to see him live/interview him when he was in Oslo in August). I have excerpts from both of those scores on various compilations. Great stuff. But I have so much on my to-buy plate right now (in addition to all the promos I get), that I'm not sure I can prioritize it right now.I am extremely serious. -

As most of you probably have heard by now, Legrand passed away last night, age 86.
I've actually had a "Michel Legrand" folder in my podcast folder for about a year or so, intending to make a tribute episode about him, but then postponing it in the chance I would be able to meet and interview him (I sadly missed his performance at the Oslo opera house a few years ago). But now I'll obviously create one in a few weeks, under far more sad circumstances.
Legrand was one of the big ones of a generation that is sadly down to a handful or so at this point. I have several of his albums; even his lavish 4CD longbox set from about a decade or so ago. Was always a fan.I am extremely serious. -

I'm really saddened to hear this news, Legrand is a favourite of mine. A great composer, a great songwriter and like Schifrin, Previn and Williams a virtuoso pianist.
One of my favourite pieces... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_8pTP_x99zUOn Friday I ate a lot of dust and appeared orange near the end of the day ~ Bregt -

Legrand doesn't feature very prominently in my collection. There is a gorgeous best-of compilation thought, there is Yentl and Ice Station Zebra which I am actually a big fan of. So good, FSM would release it back in the day. A great composer, at home with many genres. A grate songwriter too.
VolkerBach's music is vibrant and inspired.
