On the 27th of April, Larghetto Music will release the soundtrack to the new comedy COMME DES GARCONS. The CD has been announced but the covert artwork and track-listing are not available yet:

https://www.amazon.fr/s/ref=nb_sb_noss?__mk_fr_FR=%C3%85M%C3%85%C5%BD%C3%95%C3%91&url=search-alias%3Dpopular&field-keywords=Vladimir+Cosma+Comme+des+gar%C3%A7ons+

This movie directed by Julien Hallard and starring Max Boublil is set in the French town of Reims in 1969 and deals with the creation of a female soccer team.

Here's the track-listing of the brand new CD:

https://musique.fnac.com/a11923272/Vladimir-Cosma-Comme-des-garcons-Digipack-CD-album

21 tracks all by Cosma, as it seems, so no boring additional songs. Durations are not known yet. I can't wait to listen to it!

Eda, regarding the piano track you mentioned in UN PROFIL POUR DEUX, I should see the movie again because I can't remember it off the top of my head right now. Still, I think there was toward the very end of the movie a rather long piece which was not penned by Cosma. The main characters are busy watching a movie in that scene if I'm not mistaken. Maybe you should check out the end credits?

Hi Laurent,

Ok,

http://streamcomplet.me/un-profil-pour-deux/

Here is full movie in French, just see by this time: 01:24 - 01:27 (84-87 minutes)

Twice this piano theme was used in this movie.

You mean this one - not penned by Cosma? What is this then? Classic?

In the End titles they credited another theme - not this piano, Ma Chere Christine and Le Demenagement

Excerpts from COMME DES GARCONS can be played here:

https://www.qobuz.com/lu-fr/album/comme-des-garcons-original-motion-picture-soundtrack-vladimir-cosma/bbswqwmflvgoc

For some reason, I can read only the first 7 tracks. Eda, I'm sure you will recognize a few cues, in particular Ballade 69 and Pop, sweat & tears. Among the new material, my favourite theme is Emmanuelle (slow rock), a superb pastiche of the 60's.
I've seen the movie yesterday and enjoyed it as well as its score. This is throughout pure Cosma, very much tuneful and pleasant.

Hi Laurent,

Thanks for the link, i was able to listen to all the tracks, nice new tracks. If you meant "recognize" - they are pre-existing, no, to me - all are new material.

I'd like to watch movie too, someday when they'll release Russian version.

And Laurent, one more thing!

I have recognized main theme of "UN PROFIL POUR DEUX"

Actually COSMA wrote this main theme in 1971 for "TANG"

It's been released Single.

The track 2 - KYO ET L'AMOUR - same theme, but another arrangement.

Cosma rearranged this theme for UN PROFIL POUR DEUX

Yes, well done for the identification of the love theme of TANG in UN PROFIL POUR DEUX. TANG is an early score still very much influenced by Legrand. Another exercize for you: did you recognize the tune rearranged in Techno-tango sur Seine? This one is much easier. You also recognized L'ADIEU AUX AS in the other thread and are therefore a true Cosma expert.

Back to the new score: I don't have the CD yet but it's available on Spotify.

I also agree that Cosma's music is pretty much addictive. So don't listen too much to it!

WOW!
Nice gem, thanks!

It's again reused in Un profil as ALEX ET FLORA and as SUPER 8

I've never had heard that Yourtube cue before and never heard of it

"Techno-tango sur Seine"
of course, it's DUPONT LAJOIE

You know, i enjoyed this movie and the plot of this movie still actual. I'm big fan of FRENCH CINEMA.

Laurent,

You were right!

I've checked once again End Titles and indeed, this theme is not by Cosma (which i was thinking of)
Here is it
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_BYe-UfzgPk

Now we can close this OST for Un Profil Pour Deux, because all which was there is identified .

Cosma indeed used his old music but in new style.
As you noted from Dupont Lajois, from Les grands détectives and main theme as i said from TANG.

Anyway i've enjoyed the arrangements of new style. And i liked RICHARD.

I don't know this musician but it was easy to recognize that this piece isn't by Cosma who doesn't write in this minimalistic way, let's say à la Philip Glass. There is only one exception I can think of: the main theme from HITLER A HOLLYWOOD available as download only. But even there, Cosma didn't use a repetitive pattern only and inserted a real theme.

Noone else enjoying the music of Cosma over here? It seems as though Eda's questions and remarks are too precise and therefore too daunting (I can't answer them all) but otherwise and beyond specific questions, I really recommend the three boxes of 17 CD's each to the readers of this board, or at least to start with samplers. A now OOP 2 CD set was once published in the U.S. by Drg records but it seems that his music isn't widespread enough abroad. Yet this talented musician always develops clear, fresh and recognizable tunes wrapped in inventive and pleasant arrangements. You never get bored with his music. His output is very much influenced by his Rumanian origins, even in a movie like UN PROFIL POUR DEUX, which has no connection whatsoever with East Europe.

I've got HITLER A HOLLYWOOD long time ago but i've already forgot all the music, because it was 5 years ago and i've never seen that movie and didn't listen to this score all of those years.
Yeah, GLASS or MICHAEL NYMAN and YANN TIERSEN (Tabarly - La Longue Route).... same style.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7wc9jRXksuA

I'm also upset that at this board not too much COSMA fans .... Well, let's hope that they are reading us at least.

RE: COMME DES GARCONS

Emmanuelle (Slow-rock), Papillon, Dolce, Emmanuelle et Giacomo (all are same themes) is slightly reminds Camping theme from Dupont Lajois

But anyway this is another theme (just like Pourquois pas nous VS La surprise du chef)

If you listen to Carpi's L'INGORGO (Le Grand Embouteillage) you can find very similar track which is VOLO SERENO and Trovajoli's one of themes from LA STANZA DEL VESCOVO.

Style of some tracks reminds me his Le Diner De cons and Bolling's Le Gitan scores.
Ballade 69 indeed is familiar to me.
Arrêt de jeu also i've heard before.

It's a theme from LES SOUS-DOUES EN VACANCES (B.B.? I Presume)
__________________

The track "JAZZ chases GABE" from LES RACINES DU COEUR (DAZZLE) (1994) - which is CD 15 BOX 2009

This is recycling theme of LES JEUNES FILLES (1977) - CD 11 on BOX 2016
And i guess at some other films too

__________________
Eda, I compared Les vahinés du camping / B.B.? I presume (same track) and I don't think it's the same tune as Emmanuelle (slow-rock) and its variations.

For anyone interested in this new soundtrack, I also wanted to say the announced date of release (27th of April) has not been respected but it's now available.

Enjoy

Sorry Lokutus, I found it yesterday in a Parisian shop and can't tell for Amazon and other retailers. But I assume it'll soon be available online too. I can at least attest that the CD exists! Like with UN PROFIL SUR DEUX, there is no real booklet but just one page containing a summary of the movie, the casting and Vladimir just wrote a couple of lines to tell how much he likes to work on first movies.
