GDM music releases on CD the OST composed by Ennio Morricone
for the TV two-part mini-series Viaggio Nel Terrore: L'Achille
Lauro directed in 1990 by Alberto Negrin and starring Burt
Lancaster, Eva Marie Saint, Robert Culp, Brian Bloom, Dominique
Sanda, Renzo Montagnani, Bernard Fresson, Gabriele Ferzetti.
This TV movie was realized five years later the tragic facts
happened aboard the Achille Lauro:
In 1985, while it was still morred in Alexandria's dock, the
Italian liner was boarded by a group of Palestinian warriors.
Klingoffer (Lancaster), an old American passenger with Israeli
roots, was killed during the disperate attempt, although his
illness, to save all the people hold as hostages aboard.
Ennio Morricone did represent musically all the tragic and
painful of the plot alternating tension music with epic atmospheres
that evoke the sea and with a sweet and heroic theme for flute,
piano and orchestra dedicated to the hero Klingoffer.
The CD is enriched with two songs sung by the beautiful voice
of Amii Stewart.
For the making of this CD first generation master tapes were
used containing all the stereo session that, besides a far
superior sound than the previous CD, gave the chance to add
about twelve minutes of extra music, all digitally restored
and remastered. |
