Franck Pourcel's album Pourcel Of Paris is a delightful collection of 12 tracks that showcase the French composer's versatility and skill. From the opening track "La Vie En Rose" to the closing "Les Feuilles Mortes," Pourcel's arrangements are lush, romantic, and evocative of the City of Light.
The album features a mix of classic French songs and popular standards, all given Pourcel's signature touch. "Sous Le Ciel De Paris" is a standout track, with its sweeping strings and accordion accompaniment. "La Mer" is another highlight, with Pourcel's arrangement capturing the ebb and flow of the ocean.
Throughout the album, Pourcel's use of strings, horns, and percussion creates a rich tapestry of sound that is both elegant and emotive. The album is a testament to Pourcel's talent as an arranger and his ability to capture the essence of Paris in his music.
