BSX Records presents the original motion picture soundtrack to the Dinesh D'Souza film DEATH OF A NATION with music composed by Dennis McCarthy (STAR TREK: THE NEXT GENERATION, McHALE'S NAVY). DEATH OF A NATION is the newest documentary film by author and filmmaker, Dinesh D'Souza (2016: Obama's America and Hillary's America: The Secret History of the Democratic Party). This documentary draws parallels between Abraham Lincoln's presidency and the presidency of Donald Trump.
Among the most dependable TV composers in the business, Dennis McCarthy’s career has ranged from being a session keyboardist and musical director for Glen Campbell to composing Emmy-award-winning scores for television’s “Star Trek” franchise. For more than 35 years, McCarthy has been an in-demand composer for films and television, scoring such shows as “V: The TV Series” (1984-85), “Dynasty” (1985-89), “McGyver” (1985-91), “Birdland” (1994), as well as made-for-TV movies such as “V: The Final Battle” (1984), “Overkill: The Aileen Wuornos Story” (1992), “In His Life: The John Lennon Story” (2000), and “A Modern Twain Story: The Prince and the Pauper” (2007). McCarthy gained prominence as one of the regular composers on “Star Trek: The Next Generation” beginning in 1987, and has continued in the same capacity for three subsequent Trek series (“Deep Space Nine,” “Voyager,” and “Enterprise”), as well as the seventh Star Trek feature film, “Generations” in 1994 and related media such as video games and shorts involving “Star Trek” characters. McCarthy’s efforts have gained him six Emmy Award nominations – and two wins, first in 1991 for his dramatic score to the “Unification, Part 1” episode of “Star Trek: the Next Generation,” and again in 1993 for his Main Title to “Star Trek: Deep Space Nine.”
McCarthy also scored music for feature films, including “McHale’s Navy” (1997), “Letters from a Killer” (1998), and “Die, Mommy, Die” (2003). McCarthy has also scored theatrical plays in Southern California. He continues scoring film projects but takes more time off to spend with his wife Patty and three children and nine grandchildren.

Before anyone says anything, yes it's a very Controversial film given it's subject matter and we fully understand that.
The music is quite outstanding and Dennis McCarthy is a very old friend of BSX's and these were the main reasons we elected to release it.

Well good luck keeping this discussion non-political. I'll just say "no comment" on the film... that said, the sample sound clip is quite lovely.
Chris.
That was way we decided to release the score, Dennis really worked hard on it and the City of Prague Philharmonic under John Beal produced a great recording.
If you hear the other samples you'll understand what I'm talking about.

I don't see what 'open-mindedness' has to do with it, to be honest. I think it's a fair reaction to have to a project like this.
Personally, I wouldn't go so far as to boycott everything by the people involved from now on (I still treasure my copy of STAR TREK: GENERATIONS), but I think it's very fair to express a sense of frustration and disappointment. One can easily say "it's just a job", "we just did it for the money", "what matters is the music, not what it accompanies", "we don't care about politics" etc., but ultimately that doesn't quite cut it to those of us who abhor what the movie represents. A far more powerful statement would have been if the people involved took a stand and said no, so that the filmmaker would have had to use obscure second-rate samples as score, and gone even more under the radar than what it will now.
Either way, I'd be curious to know how this will sell.

Wonderful samples. Thank you!
Respecting people's opinions is a wonderful thing, political or not.

I'm as disappointed as anyone to see McCarthy signing up to score something as grotesque as this but I think it's going a bit too far to criticise the orchestra or James Fitzpatrick for recording it.
