Chanson Du Jour: La Valse D’ Amelie
Chanson Du Jour 10/20/2016 “La Valse D’ Amelie” by Yann Tiersen
This is one my favorites from the film Amelie. Composer/performer Yann Tiersen plays piano, accordion, violin as well as melodica, xylophone, toy piano, bicycle wheel and a typewriter in one of the greatest film soundtracks ever made. Tiersen won a 2001 BAFTA Award for Best Film Music for Amelie (should have won the Oscar.)
