[ENGLISH] (Machine Translation)
The Ecoutez le cinema! collection is proud to present the most panoramic, ambitious discographic project ever devoted to Lalo Schifrin, a program divided into 16 thematic CDs: the founding Schifrin-Gillespie relationship, the Verve years, the Dirty Harry series, kung fu soundtracks (Operation Dragon, Rush hour), quintessential Jazz meets the symphony and more. The list of guest artists is dizzying: Stan Getz, Shirley Bassey, Ray Charles, Jimmy Smith, Barbra Streisand, Scott Walker, Claude Nougaro, Jeff Goldblum, Kyle Eastwood, Portishead, Salaam Remi... Not to mention a number of rare tracks, even previously unreleased on CD, such as the explosive score of Murderers' Row, Matt Helm's adventure with Dean Martin.

Balancing bebop, pop, funk, disco and symphonic rhythms, The Sound of Lalo Schifrin recounts the wild trajectory of a creator who stripped away all the disciplines he tackled. Born of Bullitt, his image as a “specialist in urban thrillers” is only a trompe l'oeil. His territories are far more vast than one might imagine. In its own way, this lush box set seeks to map them out.

Available as a complete 16CD set + Booklet and interview with the artist.
