3.0 out of 5 starsMuddy arrangements but passable
By jumpy1 on January 2, 2011
Format: Paperback
Honestly, I would think Legrand is old enough now that he would want his writing to be preserved for posterity, and surely not the muddy arrangements found in this book to be his legacy? I realize most of these songs exist in musical scores but let's face it, the average person is not going to rent a musical theater score for hundreds of dollars to recreate him, and wouldn't he want people to learn from his superior piano versions? Or does he have contempt for us fans who just want to sound like we're listening to the master himself? Now that the 20th Century is over I am on a personal crusade to let the music publishers know it is time we had decent sheet music for composers such as Legrand! Music has moved on, so the people trying to recreate the past are your only hope to keep making money off of this stuff. Please, stop selling us this drivel and give us quality stuff to work with! (I can't believe you don't have a good enough arranger on the payroll to put to the task.) And, MORE. Windmills of Your Mind is great but why only one or two songs from Les Desmoiselles de Rochefort and Les Parapluies de Cherbourg? I had to give this 3 stars because it is passable but it is by no means comprehensive nor will it substitute for playing off of recordings, as it only provides an outline to work with. Alas.

4.0 out of 5 starsNot bad at all.
By Infusion on January 30, 2006
Format: Paperback
I have always enjoy listening to Michel Legrand's work. And of course, just like everyone else, I do have a few favorites. Honestly, I bought the book because of one particular song - The Windmills of Your Mind. The arrangement of the song is not what I expected and used to. There are several questionable chord progressions. However, there are a handful of very well arranged songs. Overall, I am please with the purchase.

5.0 out of 5 starsComprehensive collection of grand songs
By W Zeltman, Jr. on March 6, 2013
Format: Paperback Verified Purchase
This volume contains the best, and best known songs of a composer who has few peers. Also included are many lesser known, but intriguing selections. The arrangements are challenging enough for a non pianist like me. I would recommend this book to anyone who can play, to not only enjoy the music, but also to gain a deeper appreciation for the genius of LeGrand.

4.0 out of 5 starsA Grand Collection of Songs
By SD Rich on July 25, 2015
Format: Paperback Verified Purchase
A nice selection of some of his best work as well as some lesser-known tunes that are worth exploring. Many of Legrand's songs are complex and require advanced playing skills to be fully appreciated. The print quality is excellent, with clean clear images, and the binding has held up well. It's been a welcome addition to my music library.
