About This Song
About "Legrand: La Valse des Lilas" by Alison Balsom
Legrand’s lilac waltz becomes a smoky, tender trumpet reverie. Balsom bends the melody like a dancer tracing circles in dusk air, balancing nostalgia with a faint, restless sway. The result is elegance tinged with longing, a bouquet slowly wilting in warm light.
