Saimel Records has released Ennio Morricone "La Gabbia" with extra music, and another two CDs "Miss Arizona" (Armando Trovaioli) and "Messi de Alex de la Iglesia" (Joan Valent).

LA GABBIA
Music composed, orchestrated and conducted by ENNIO MORRICONE
Barcode: 8436548730192
SAIMEL 3998971
In 1985 Ennio Morricone was commissioned to compose the music for “La Gabbia”, erotic film, with dramatic notes, which was directed by Giuseppe Patroni Griffi ("Addio Fratello Crudele", "Metti, una sera a cena").
Ennio Morricone composed music in which dominates the melodic character. The Roman composer makes use of a wide sound spectrum, creating eclectic themes with musical influences from contemporary music to pop, to rock or jazz.
With more than 52 minutes in length, this edition of Saimel contains three unpublished themes and additional music, never before published, in other two tracks.
"La Gabbia" becomes another clear example of the inexhaustible talent of Ennio Morricone, an essential composer.

MISS ARIZONA
Music composed and conducted by ARMANDO TROVAIOLI
Barcode: 8436548730154
SAIMEL 3998967
Limited Edition of 300 copies. First Time on CD
Directed in 1987 by the Hungarian filmmaker Pál Sándor, "Miss Arizona" is a melodrama inspired by true events starring a couple of cabaret artists during the convulsed interwar years.
For the music was not only necessary to compose a dramatic score, but also to find the handful of songs that stars would perform in the Arizona club. Armando Trovaioli chose to write new compositions, whose lyrics were further related to the story itself. Given the experience of Trovaioli in the genre of varieties, the musician readily resolved the challenge and composed half a dozen songs, performed by Hanna Schygulla herself in English. The songs worked very well in the story. The rest of the score composed by Armando Trovaioli is a little jewel, practically unknown and mistreated in attempting to shorten the film length. He was faithful to his sensibility and to his preference for the piano as a solo instrument.
As the Main theme, he adapted the melody of One Day in May in Budapest, converting it into a nostalgic leitmotiv, which acquires its greatest expression in the beautiful suite that opens up the disc, Accadde a Budapest and in the epilogue. Trovaioli also wrote sad and intimate parts, associated with the character of Sándor, alongside incidental music, dark and gloomy, used in the most dramatic moments of the story, which had to do with the Jewish persecution. Moreover, he expressly composed an innocent love theme with an orchestra and synthesizer for the brief romance of András. And another motif for the moment in which the main characters see their destiny improved thanks to the diamonds, in which, as a curiosity, Trovaioli wanted to wink at Mastroianni, recovering a part of the melody that he had composed seventeen years ago for another film starring him, "Dramma della gelosia”.
Some tracks in the original master tapes had some imperfections which we tried to correct as best as possible during the mastering process in the way to offer the best possible listening.

MESSI de ALEX DE LA IGLESIA
Music composed by JOAN VALENT
Barcode: 8436548730178
SAIMEL 3998969
Screenplay by JORGE VALDANO
With participation of Johan Cruyff, Andrés Iniesta, Diego Armando Maradona, Javier Mascherano, César Luis Menotti, Gerard Piqué, Alejandro Sabella, Jorge Valdano
In his new collaboration with director Alex de la Iglesia (“Las brujas de Zugarramurdi / Witching and Bitching”), composer Joan Valent has created music to accompany the trajectory of Messi, an icon in sport today and a media figure as there are few today. The soundtrack has a central theme that brings an epic component to define the character and his extraordinary personal and professional journey. It is a powerful music, brass and percussion transmit a great tone.
Along with that epic sound also found soft music, which has a melodic and delicate tone. Describe Messi, especially his childhood and youth. Provides warmth and closeness to the character and transmits a gentle character.
We are therefore faced with a singular work, a music that contributes to the discourse of the film, creating sensations that reinforce the images and, at the same time is nice in its isolated listening. A perfect musical combination.

I have had the opportunity to purchase these three soundtracks recently and I really look fantastic.

The Gabbia is a soundtrack, made in Morricone and alternating melodic music with a more contemporary and leaves a great taste after listening.

Miss Arizona is also very melodic and pleasant soundtrack and the songs included in the album are very good.

Finally disc Messi seems to me a very pleasant surprise as the composer has created a variety of topics combining stunning epic themes and powerful with other radiating an impressive lyricism and truly excited as when you cut that out in Grandma documentary soccer player.

I hope to serve my little comment to value three soundtracks liked sure many who have the opportunity to enjoy.

I thought this was even funnier.

Can we have a photo of you holding your CDs so that we can all see how fantastic you look?

Hey, Bill, I think Fuiano is better than some others. Have you read Ivanna Mattei's notes in some of the Cometa releases?

With a cover such as this, we shouldn't focus too much on grammatical blunders. smile

Saimel Records has released Ennio Morricone "La Gabbia" with extra music ...
SAIMEL 3998971


I'm curious about the fluctuation in the price of La Gabbia.

Screen Archives Entertainment lists La Gabbia for $19.95 ...

http://www1.screenarchives.com/title_detail.cfm/ID/28425/LA-GABBIA/

... whilst Intrada is charging customers $29.99 for this Saimel release:

http://store.intrada.com/s.nl/it.A/id.9428/.f?sc=13&category=22848


Are there any reasons why the costs vary between vendors?

What has happened to this Trovajoli title?
MISS ARIZONA was on my wish list for future puchase, but it has disappeated from SAE's website (... and Intrada never even bothered to stock MISS ARIZONA in the first place).

What is its status? Is MISS ARIZONA sold out or no longer available with American vendors?

SAE Likely only had a few in stock and because it might have been a slow seller they decided not to restock it. They could likely order a copy in for you if you email them, one of the things that put me off ordering from SAE was that my orders always seemed to take a long time to ship. A month or more might have went passed before i have decided to email them to see why my order had not shipped. Everytime this happened was because an older title was not in stock, worse still SAE would ship my order without even asking if I wanted to wait a bit longer.

Rarely order from them now nearly every order seemed to be delayed I could understand about pre orders, they must not have had a lot of those Italian titles in stock and then only ordered a copy in once someone orders a copy from them.

SAE Really needs to have something on there website to tell you if an item is In Stock
The title is still available from the label http://www.rosebudbandasonora.com/catalog/product_info.php?cPath=1_58&products_id=18641

Thank you, Mr. Saiz!

This title (and other Saimel albums) should be more available via U.S. vendors.
I wish SAE (and Dusty Groove and Intrada) would continue to stock Saimel Ediciones (I also would like to get Carlo Savina's I DUE KENNEDY and L'ORCHESTRA ROSSO, for example).

Not to mention the back cover (I'm assuming we cannot post it here?)

Is there another email address for SAIMEL ?
Because I wrote to the label through its website, but I don't if it is the right way.

How to contact Mr Saiz or someone of SAIMEL ?
Thanks.

I read LA GABBIA includes Ennio Morricone's theme "Bach" from LE PROFESSIONNEL. Is it all around the score?

You can check it out on Spotify or on http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lp07o7bZs68&list=PLDmdF1ma6cZqajgeKJp-uil0liuP26SRH wink

Juanki, you also can find the answer in the database of www.chimai.com:

http://www.chimai.com/index.cfm?module=MUS&mode=DET&id=3116

As you can see, the tune has been reused four times in LA GABBIA. And these variations happen to be different than the ones written originally for LE PROFESSIONNEL. I remember most of them as very delicate.
