In 2022, Michel Legrand would have turned 90 (February 25). Composer, conductor, pianist, singer, stage director: Michel broke down the barriers between jazz, symphonic music, musical comedy and popular music. A musical legend, three times Oscar winner, Legrand left a prolific body of work, with themes that have taken hold in the collective memory for several decades. Legrand (re)imagined is an elegant and contemporary tribute to the late prolific composer Michel Legrand by the world's finest composers and pianists. Michel Legrand is one of the most acclaimed film composers of his generation. He also was a sophisticated jazz pianist and songwriter whose lyrical sound evoked the romance, the style and the coolness of Paris. A classical piano prodigy, Legrand emerged in the 1950s with a series of successful ambient albums. In 1954, his first album, "I Love Paris," consisting of French songs arranged in jazz, was a huge success. It was the starting point of a resounding international career in jazz. He then worked with famous musicians such as Miles Davis, John Coltrane, or Bill Evans. Some of his compositions became jazz standards: "La Valse des lilas" (Once upon a summer time), "La Chanson de Maxence" (You must believe in spring).

What is High-Resolution Audio?

High-resolution audio offers the highest-fidelity available, far surpassing the sound quality of traditional CDs. When you listen to music on a CD or tracks purchased via consumer services such as iTunes, you are hearing a low-resolution version of what was actually recorded and mastered in the studio. ProStudioMasters offers the original studio masters — exactly as the artist, producers and sound engineers mastered them — for download, directly to you.

What do I need for playback?

You may need additional software / hardware to take full advantage of the higher 24-bit high-res audio formats, but any music lover that has heard 16-bit vs 24-bit will tell you it's worth it!
