Free Music Notes for The Young Girls of Rochefort
Free Music Review: The King of Melody
Hit: 5 Stars
How refreshing to get a CD of movie music that does it properly. The two discs give you all the actual sound track and the nine bonus tracks complete the picture. Disc one (at just over fifty minutes) has a neat touch, in places, of using the screen dialogue to introduce the song. The fifteen tracks on this disc are, of course, typical examples of Legrand's ability to compose stunning melodies that stay with you long after you've stopped listening. His versatility is not just in composing but in orchestration as well, just listen to the strings behind the singers on disc two, track one.
The movie music continues with eight tracks on disc two (seventy-one minutes) but it is the bonus tracks that make this package sparkle. Firstly there is a five minute Q&A with Legrand talking (in French) about the Twins song followed by an English version sung by Jackie Ward and Sue Allen. I found this interesting because, in part, the English words have to be sung very fast and it almost doesn't work but in French it sounds much easier and credible. The remaining seven tracks are instrumental versions of various songs including nine minutes of Maxence's Song with Phil Woods, alto and Legrand on electric piano.
The twenty-three tracks from the movie are performed by a large orchestra that varies between big band jazz and soft easy-listening strings and at times a wordless vocal group is used. All the songs are, fortunately, in French and the liner notes lists the singers who dubbed the actors voices.
I thought was a super sound track CD set. The perfect complement to the DVD. My only crit would be the annoyingly small type face used in the liner notes. Mostly this stuff is the usual clich? nonsense but the notes for Rochefort are full of interesting detail about how Legrand created these wonderful melodies.
