LEGENDARY MICHEL LEGRAND COMES TO TORONTO

ShowOne Productions and Starvox Entertainment proudly present a rare and intimate performance by MAESTRO MICHEL LEGRAND.

Composer, virtuoso pianist, singer, score-writer, songwriter, arranger, conductor, director and producer MICHEL LEGRAND closes his 25-date Canadian tour with two shows in Toronto, November 13 & 14, 2009

The Paris native has straddled the Atlantic for over 55 years, writing scores and songs for movies and theatre in Europe and America, winning 3 Academy Awards and 5 Grammy Awards along the way, and being nominated for 9 Drama Desk Awards, 5 Tony Awards and an Emmy.

Legrand’s songs from movies like The Thomas Crown Affair, Yentl, The Umbrellas of Cherbourg and Lady Sings the Blues, Never Say Never Again, The Ring, and Brian’s Song will be sung by Québec sensation MARIO PELCHAT (Nôtre Dame de Paris), with CATHERINE MICHEL from the Opéra de Paris on harp.

Legrand and Pelchat worked together on an eponymous album, released in March 2009, where Pelchat interpreted Legrand’s world-famous songs, after which the pair played a smattering of shows in Paris to perform them. The chemistry was such a success, a Canadian tour was launched.

Now you can see this 75-year-old genius up close and personal at the beautiful Winter Garden Theatre!
