beautiful performance!  loved the use of the flute at the end (and also the key change in the middle).  i myself haven't heard of this tune before, i only know the ones that Bill Evans did

Many thanks, budo. Bill Evans ? Which ones ? If you can explain

What magnificent music I didn't know !  (Quelle musique magnifique je connaissais pas    google translate

The start/intro before song is nice. Good pianoarrangement, is it yours? Good playing, good idea using flute. Enjoyed this much.

I like the French version better than the English one. The arrangement is better to my ears.

Thank you Borealis for sharing this. Love it.

Best wishes,

Stig

Hey Borealis

What a lovely tune! I enjoyed it very much, I did not know this theme song at all, hence glad that I found it. And "Il était une fois l'espace" looks like a fun series to watch

Michel Legrand is one of my favourite composers - he is able to take a simple melody and support it with amazing harmonies and modulations to produce something that is so compelling and beautiful to listen to. I hope sometime you'll do a cover of "The Summer Knows" and perhaps also "You must believe in spring"

Keep well..

Thanks, 1MuddyDog !

Why not for "The Summer Knows" and "You must believe in spring" ? Even it is more the budo'skills...

Que Bastet soit avec vous et avec votre mistigri !

Re: Il était une fois l'espace (OST)

Excellent combo with the piano and flute!
