Experience the lush, "big band sound" of a master with the Vocalion 2024 reissue of Le Grand Orchestre De Paul Mauriat Volume 1 / Volume 2. This remastered compilation brings together the works of the legendary French conductor, composer, and arranger who redefined the landscape of modern pop orchestrations during the 1960s and ’70s.
A graduate of the Marseilles Conservatory, Mauriat combined his rigorous classical training with the rhythmic innovations of jazz and the melodic clarity of folk music. This collection showcases his "breathtaking and exciting" arrangements, characterized by technical precision, pleasant harpsichord accents, and his signature "modern sound" that makes every melody feel entirely new and vital.
Key Highlights & Track Features:
- Includes the iconic "Love Is Blue" (Andre Popp) and the haunting "If You Go Away" by Jacques Brel.
- Features Mauriat’s virtuoso composition "Study in the Shape of Rhythm and Blues" alongside his original "Nocturne."
- Classical updates with a modern twist, including Paganini’s "Moto Perpetuo" and the "Scherzo Waltz" of Chabrier (featuring Andre Borly on piano).
- Pop and stage adaptations such as a medley from "Hair" and "Hello, Dolly!"
Perfect for collectors of easy listening and orchestral pop, this CD reissue delivers the "marvelous grand manner" of Paul Mauriat with the high-fidelity clarity of a professional remaster.
