Description: | Morricone: Cinema Rarities For Violin And String Orchestra by Marco Serino, released 6 October 2023.
This version of Morricone: Cinema Rarities For Violin And String Orchestra comes as a 1xCD. - .. RARITIES FOR VIOLIN AND STRING ORCHESTRAThe idea for this album came about during the recording of it's predecessor Cinema Suites (BBC Music Magazine's "Screen Choice", Album of the Week on WDR3 etc.), when the Morricone family sent Marco Serino a number of rarities that they hoped could also be recorded, particularly "Dedicated to Maria" (from the film The Sleeping Wife) that the composer had dedicated to his wife. These works, along with others that Serino rediscovered in his own archives, make up the backbone of Cinema Rarities, an ideal sequel to the previous recording. After twenty years as Ennio Morricone's chosen violinist, Serino continues his exploration of the compositions for violin and orchestra, but this time with a particular focus on pieces that, besides being less well known to the wider public, all share a degree of "Italianness". The main nucleus of the program consists of three suites named after three Italian film directors (Silvano Agosti, Mauro Bolognini and the Taviani brothers), with whom Morricone worked closely. Although the respective films did not achieve the international acclaim of those directed by Sergio Leone or Giuseppe Tornatore, which featured in the previous recording, they inspired the composer to come up with new and distinctive solutions, such as "Love Remembered" from The Inheritance, considered by Marco Serino to be one of the most beautiful. Equally quintessentially Italian are the two extracts from the scores for The Lady Caliph directed by Alberto Bevilacqua, including the lovely "Nocturne" and the brief "Quasi un Vivaldi" (from Sergio Sollima's film Revolver), which herald by almost a decade remakes like Gian Piero Reverberi's Rondò Veneziano. A unique place is occupied by Four Adagios, a collection of four pieces chosen by the composer himself (including the iconic "Whoever" and "Deborah's Theme"), which in this arrangement for violin cites the main theme of the first movement of the Beethoven Concerto. Dedicated to Serino and performed worldwide under the baton of Morricone, Four Adagios speaks to the artistic partnership between composer and violinist, their mutual professional respect and deep friendshipRecorded 11-13 April 2023 at Oratorio di San Rocco, Padua, Italy
This is the premiere performance of the Mauro Bolognini Suite. All the other pieces are recorded here for the first time, with the exception of the two that make up the Silvano Agosti Suite, which already appeared in this format in the original film soundtracks."Cinema Rarities for Violin and String Orchestra" is a captivating CD that brings together the evocative world of film music with the expressive power of classical performance. Featuring violinist Marco Serino and the renowned Orchestra di Padova e del Veneto, this album explores rare and lesser-known cinematic gems arranged for violin and string orchestra. The selection spans various eras and styles, offering listeners an immersive journey through emotional soundscapes crafted by some of cinema?s most imaginative composers. Marco Serino is celebrated for his virtuosic technique and sensitive interpretations; he has performed internationally as both soloist and chamber musician, earning acclaim for his recordings across diverse repertoires. The Orchestra di Padova e del Veneto stands among Italy's leading ensembles, known for their refined artistry in both classical masterpieces and innovative projects like this one.
