Marco Fedalto - Album 'Il Cinema Suonato'

Cinema must be listened to... not just watched

Since its inception, cinema has attained artistic worth 80% of the time (if not even 90%) due to its music. This is because the visual aspect is, first of all, narrated by the musical notes which have always expressed the "unsaid" underlying the images. Therefore, cinema should firstly be played to be understood viscerally, and, only then, as something integral, scripted, acted, directed, photographed, set designed, edited acoustically and visually, and then worked by hand. Without an original score, many of the films we know and love would not be the same, and wouldn’t leave that indelible mark on our cinematic memory many years after seeing them in theaters or directly at home. In this album, "Cinema" is "Played" - hence the magnificent title - by the excellent virtuoso musicians of IL CINEMA SUONATO, a chamber orchestra created by the conductor and composer Marco Fedalto. He is the author of all the orchestrations that are so respectful of the primordial thematic form, yet offer a richly imaginative and enlightening creative interpretation. Furthermore, he is also the composer of two pieces included in the track list with a performance which is both accurate and successful in highlighting every melodic choice made on the film by the original composer, as well as wonderfully vital outside the original context.

This album is an excellent collection of single themes and suites taken from films of yesterday and today, and written by the likes of the eminent Nino Rota, Ennio Morricone, Henry Mancini, Pietro Mascagni, Yann Tiersen, as well as Fedalto himself.
