Italian Music For Film |
| | Description: | For his third album for Chandos, the saxophonist Marco
Albonetti turns to the rich tradition of film music from
his native Italy. Marco writes: â??Film music has been
described as the defining new genre of classical music in
the twentieth century. It engages both the ear and the
heart of an audience. The masterpieces composed by
two Italian film composers in particular, Nino Rota and
Ennio Morricone, embody the cultural identity of most
Italians and they have become recognised and loved by
audiences around the world. The film themes on this
album capture the magical combination of romance,
melancholy, friendship, and violence. The notes vibrate
with such passion that the compositions continue to
engage the listener, bringing the work of these great
Italian composers to life wherever and whenever it is
performed. Film music is meant to be an
accompaniment to the action on screen. However, the
music of the great Italian composers is so powerful and
enduring that these melodies can stand on their own
merit, transporting us to another time and place,
evoking memories of past experiences or introducing us
to new worlds, places which we can only see in our
imagination. This album is a tribute to the Italian spirit,
to my spirit, expressed through a musical journey: it
offers Postcards from Italy. - ITALIAN MUSIC FOR FILMFor his third album for Chandos, the saxophonist Marco Albonetti turns to the rich tradition of film music from his native Italy.
