Novecento (Original Soundtrack)

Novecento' is a 1976 movie directed by Bernardo Bertolucci: a monumental historical drama lasting over five hours, set in Emilia Romagna in the first half of the 20th century, with an international cast that includes, among others, Robert de Niro and Gérard Depardieu. For this soundtrack Ennio Morricone wrote a pure classical and symphonic music score, and personally directed the orchestra through the meanderings of compositions that are always full of tensions, whether dramatic, romantic or epic in character. 'Novecento' is a milestone in the history of cinema, and in the same way the soundtrack is a 'classic' in the vast Morricone's repertoire. Originally released in 1976, 'Novecento' is here reissued in an exclusive and limited edition on clear red vinyl, with audio remastered from the original tapes and a new artwork.
