Composer Alexandre Desplat has recorded at Radio France's Studio 104, with the Orchestre National de France and the Chœur de Radio France, the soundtrack to Luc Besson's film, Valérian.
The Orchestre national de France performs the orchestral suite from the film "Valérian et la Cité des mille planètes", directed by Luc Besson, under the direction of composer Alexandre Desplat. Excerpt from the concert given on December 6, 2018 live from the Maison de la Radio auditorium.
Some 95 musicians from the Orchestre National de France and 40 singers from the Chœur de Radio France took part in the recording at Radio France's Studio 104, renowned for its exceptional sound.
Solrey, Alexandre Desplat's artistic director and "first ear", as well as the teams of Peter Cobbin, the sound engineer, were in the control room to both ensure that the work sessions were properly recorded, but also to cast an outside critical eye on the composition being played.
