Title: Stylist Vaughan in her Best with Legrand Material. A Must!
Product review: Many singers have recorded Michel Legrand's songbook and nearly all with Michel Legrand's arrangements. You could say Mr. Legrand is tres creative to make things sound different but sometimes these covers really sound bureaucratic!However, Sarah Vaughan is the difference here. And it seems Mr. Legrand perceived it so that his arrangements flew to specially imaginative space. A wonderful trip with Ms. Vaughan in total command of emotion combined with master technique.Program opens with 'The Summer Knows' and Legrand wrote that he had never seen musicians cry right after recording. I tell you I also did when I first listened to it.This CD repertoire covers all material recorded by Vaughan & Legrand what includes a sensational rendition of 'Wave'(Antonio Carlos Jobim).So, basic repertoire is obvious Legrand material. Were you to choose one among the so-many obvious Legrand songbooks by singers, this is the one!
