En Français

Barbra Streisand

Four tracks of lush, mid-sixties orchestral pop sung entirely in French. A masterclass in linguistic phrasing and theatrical chanson storytelling.

1966 · CBS

A sophisticated and theatrical blend of romantic longing and mid-century European elegance.

Moments Worth Listening For
The soaring, triumphant crescendo in the final minute of Non...c'est rien where her belt meets the full brass section.
The delicate, almost whispered woodwind introduction to Les Enfants qui pleurent that sets a fragile, cinematic mood.
The rhythmic, rolling piano figure in Et la mer that mimics the movement of waves beneath her fluid vocal line.
