Beat Records is pleased to release for the first time on CD the OST by Riz Ortolani for the dramatic comedy Porca vacca, directed in 1982 by Pasquale Festa Campanile.
At the time of the film's release, nothing came of this beautiful soundtrack by Riz Ortolani. Thanks to the stereo master tapes of the original sessions, it was possible to release the complete score for the first time. Riz Ortolani composed and conducted an OST introduced by a rhythmic comic theme which is reprised in a slow version with accordion After a cheerful introduction, the orchestra describes the historical period of World War I, and the military-flavored theme for trumpet and strings and is reprised by the harmonica. The harmonica, guitar, piano and rhythm section perform a folk-flavored motif perfect for the sad atmosphere of those distant days then reprised for harmonica alone. Dissonant passages for strings create a tense and macabre atmosphere, (and the harsh conditions of the war are underlined by dramatic passages with a little space dedicated for a love theme. As a special surprise for fans of the legendary Renato Pozzetto, we also include the popular songs of the period in which the story is set, performed by Pozzetto and choir as they are heard in the film, all arranged and conducted by M°Ortolani. With a duration of 54:59, this CD can finally be added to your collection of works by the great composer.
