GRAMMY Award goes to Midnight In Paris !
Congratulations to Conal Fowkes, Eddy Davis and the Yerason Trio (Yrving Yeras, Lisa Yeras and Conal Fowkes) for their contributions to this wonderful album.
Last night at the 55th Annual Grammy Awards Ceremony the prize for Best Compilation Soundtrack For Visual Media went to Midnight In Paris. A quarter of the tracks on the album feature Conal Fowkes. Three solo tracks, interpreting the music of Cole Porter, and a fourth track (arranged by Eddy Davis) where Conal plays with the Yerason Trio (Yrving and Lisa Yeras-violins) a version of Barcarolle by Offenbach.
Midnight In Paris has already won an Oscar for Best Original Screen Play and now a GRAMMY (the first for a Woody Allen soundtrack) just puts the cherry on the cake!
Congratulations to all the artists on this wonderful album!!
