Description:
This famous song dedicated to the sea was written by Trenet in about twenty minutes during a train journey. Charles Trenet (1913-2001), a polyhedric French artist, successfully dedicated his energies to music, cinema and literature. In 1943 he composed "La Mer" which is, perhaps, his greatest international success. Andrea Ravizza has created this transcription with the lyric atmosphere interweaving with the toughness of a big band sound.
