Fabulous Aznavour and the translations
As I am lucky enough to have the 3 Aznavour english CDs this was culled from, I would like to echo all the other reviews of the wonder that is Aznavour in english. I would just like to put in a word for the main translator of the words into such idiomatically correct english. The english lyrics are in the main the work of Herbert Kretzmer. He is now mainly known for the magnificent job he did on the english translation of Les Miserables, also lyrics for the Peter Sellers/Sophia Loren Goodness, Gracious Me comedy song. If you've a romantic bone in your body, this CD is for you.
The Ultimate Crooner
If you want class, Aznavour is it!
The variety and integrity of this compilation of songs is stunning, a must for every dinner party for the 40+s.
We all know "She" - a worthy classic in anyone's book - but try "It Will Be My Day" for humour, "To My Daughter" for Nostalgia, and "Ave Maria" for strength.
The backing orchestra is superb, and, although admittedly not in the original French, the lyrics translate well.
All in all a fabulous buy, and - just for fun - listen to track two "Yesterday, When I Was Young" with a good drink and a tear in your eye.
