Legrand meets his match in Barbra Streisand.
Michel Legrand is best known for creating the soundtracks for over 200 films, including The Umbrellas of Cherbourg, The Thomas Crown Affair and The Go-Between. But he had an insatiable creative spirit that led him into the world of theatre, ballet, opera and more.
Today, Donald discovers how Legrand found an equally tenacious artist in Barbra Streisand and turns his hand to Broadway.
