It’s an album born under the Californian sun. Imagined and performed by the French flutist Julien Beaudiment, who spent two years with the Los Angeles Philharmonic before becoming a soloist with the Lyon Opera Orchestra, California Dreamin’ tells in 16 titles another story of Hollywood: that of the composers who found refuge and success there. Meet the flautist who cheerfully goes from Stravinsky to La La Land, from Georges Gershwin and John Williams to the Mamas and Papas.
