Yentl: soundtracks from the Barbara Streisand film | with harp solo by Catherine Michel

Flagey Studio 4 Concert Hall, Brussels Michel Legrand is one of the great film composers with a distinguished career spanning half a century and over 200 films. His credentials range from singer, jazz pianist, songwriter to conductor, actor, screenwriter and director. So far he received 3 Oscars and 5 Grammys! Not many composers can claim to have written for both Edith Piaf and James Bond – and it’s precisely this fusion of European romance and Hollywood dynamism that has made Legrand one of the soundtrack world’s most lauded names. He has worked with many of the greatest artists of the 20th century including Frank Sinatra, Miles Davis, Barbra Streisand, Edith Piaf, Aretha Franklin and Ray Charles. He collaborated with French Nouvelle Vague directors Jean-Luc Godard and Claude Chabrol as well as Hollywood magnitudes Clint Eastwood and Orson Welles. Legrand has won as much respect in the States as he has in Europe and his creativity and ambition appear to know no bounds. In this performance, a captivating medley from the 1983 film Yentl, for which Michel Legrand composed the music. Performed by the Flemish Radio Orchestra, this rendition features a stunning harp solo by Catherine Michel, adding a delicate and emotional layer to the score.
