[...] 09. Home by Armand Amar A beautiful documentary with an even better score. It has all the hallmarks of a great score. The themes are beautifully presented with the breathtaking images. Its also a very versatile soundtrack with music from all over the world. Armand Amar is no stranger to me, but he might be to you. I suggest you check him out now and one of my favorite scores; Le Premier Cri which he also composed the music for. Read my review here. [...]

Taking into account that Naive label was involved, I guess that Vivaldi’s “Cum dederit” would be the one from the “Vespri per l’Assunzione di Maria Vergine” CDs. In which case, it’s (according to the covers) Sara Mingardo (contralto), Concerto Italiano (ensemble) and Rinaldo Alessandrini (conductor).

Well, actually “Cum dederit” is by Vivaldi. 4th movement of Nisi Dominus, RV608.

Hi Matthew, John’s comment above mentioned a deluxe edition, with 24 full tracks, being released. Maybe that could help. I look forward to this edition, too.

BTW, for those of you who already watched the film, have you noticed that the narrator’s got a very clear and beautiful voice? Quite remarkably nice and pleasing to the ear. And guess what? It’s Glen Close’s. I myself get thrilled to learn of this.

With DVD watching, the end title caption could be small and hard to read, but on the big screen, you can see it clearly.

Glad you enjoyed the movie and the score. Wish I could see it in theaters, but where I am from that won’t happen. A shame really, but at least I can enjoy the score whenever I want
