I have been very lucky to have recorded this video in 1997/1998 i think (not sure) on My VCR. Back then , the onyx german channel was posting some of the boston pops show kind of in "loop" mode, but unfortunatly didn't posted all of them. 
they did 4  tunes on this concert but the 3 other tunes that i tried to post at the same time have been removed by youtube. certainly because of the third guest, tonny benett. i'll try to repost ithem again, hoping that youtube will not block the videos this time.
 
I studied Jazz piano 24 years ago with one of Legrand's session Pianist. It was for the movie "3 places pour le 26". it was featuring actress Mathilda may some years after she did "Lifeforce".
It was a musical, from Jacques demy, featuring Yves montand as the main actor and of course, Michel to compose the soundtrack. they tried to re-produce the success of the "parapluies de Cherbourg", but it didn't worked at all.
A bluray of this movie is available in france. My (ex) teacher (i only had one piano teacher in my life) plays the piano in one of the scene, and was the one who was taking care of all the rehearsal with the dancers and singers for the screen.
I know some anecdotes on michel and the production of this movie from my teacher's mouth, but for personnal reason, I'll not share them sorry. i
I don't think it must be known the day he passed away.
 
I'll come back here to post the link to the THREE (!!!) other videos once they will be uploaded (and i hope, not blocked).

Impressive.  Most impressive.  You should send these to Jim Nova.  Maybe combine the Force...err combine forces. 

Made a sheet music video for the 1st Part of the tribute
 
 
   

OK so I just received my box, opened it and started reading one of the booklets, looks wonderful and all !
Then I play the first CD and... it only has 9 tracks, with one being 28 minutes-long !!
So I listen to it, sounds like it is CD1 but with an extremely weird sequencing, and tracks 8 and 9 not working properly.. 
I then try the 2nd one, and... it has the exact same thing 😶
I then try CD3, 4, 5, 6, 7 ...guess what 😯
 
I got 7 CDs of this :
 

 
Gonna email LLL right way about it, but did this happen to anyone else here ?

Annnd here's another one
 
 

If someone get the full program scanned, I will be interested! 😉

Who complained about Brossé's accent?
 
You never heard mine! 
 
😝

I know a lot of us here are fanatical about John Williams, and at times that may seem like a niche interest, so it is always lovely to see the outpouring of admiration for him from the general public. It is a wonderful reminder of just how important his music is, and of how many people his music has touched.
 
There are literally generations of people making their way home from the concert hall still enjoying the memory of his music.

Sensational evening - I cried several times and I’m proud to say so! 

I'm home, hey London guys, are you going out to take a beer after the concert?

I just opened one.
 
Santé!

We must see it

That was amazing. I managed to get some in video too on the sly 😂

It feels like JW just won an oscar and we all heard it together

That was tons of fun, y'all! Brings me back to the live chat days!

Best Marion's Theme, Best new Han Solo and the Princess arrangement, best Yoda's Theme... lots of bests to be sure!

Classic FM recording will be available for 7 days!
Kudos to all JWFans who persevered through and made it to an absolutely hair-raising concert!

Fantastic concert. Probably the best renditions of the concert arrangements that I have ever heard. The players really gave everything, and I'm sure JW enjoyed it greatly.

And this week the two looks green, the match is perfect.

Yoda!
Never cared that much for his theme.

There's gotta be more than Jaws!
 
 
Nice intensity though! Damn, listen to those low woodwinds!

Jaws.
 
Sounds better in the RAH than it does on CD.

Raiders' March, perhaps?
 
EDIT: Not yet... it's Jaws. 🦈
