Music reviews of Les Retrouvailles
Music Review: And the library keeps growing.
Rating: 5 Stars
So I finally got this album for Christmas! It's a great expansion to my Yann library. As of right now track 4 ("La Veillee") and track 14 ("7:PM") are my favorites.
As for comparison to Yann's other albums, I don't find this one to be so full of melancholy like prior albums. It's not as purely French as some of his other music has been, either. I've also never been a big fan of lyrics with the music; I prefer it just by itself as I think it expresses all that it needs to without any words. I think there are 5 tracks on this album with lyrics.
I will add also that unlike some others, I was not disappointed in the "Goodbye Lenin!" soundtrack. I thought the sound went perfect with the film. It did take Yann a bit out of character, but "I Saw Daddy Today" and "Summer 78" will remain some of my very favorite Yann tracks.
Description of Les Retrouvailles
With his whimsical, melancholy music, Yann Tiersen has become a sought-after composer, not only for his soundtrack work, but in his own right. Borrowing from French folk music, chanson, musette waltz and street music, as well as rock, avant-garde, and classical and minimalist influences, Tiersen's deceptively simple style has been likened to Chopin, Erik Satie, Philip Glass, and Michael Nyman. THis is his 2005 album featuring guest vocalists Liz Frazier, Jane Birkin, Stuart Stapple & Dominique A. Virgin.Alternative Rock CDs
