veröffenlichung La-La Land Records: THE GODFATHER: CODA (3CD) (Carmine Coppola)

[Alexander Grodzinski]

LLLCD 1683

Music Composed by Carmine Coppola

Limited Edition of 3000 Units

Twice before, La-La Land Records has made you movie music offers you couldn’t refuse. Now… just when you think you’re out… THEY PULL YOU BACK IN!

For the 35th anniversary, La-La Land Records, Paramount Pictures and Sony Classical proudly present a remastered and expanded Limited Edition 3-CD release of composer Carmine Coppola’s (THE BLACK STALLION, THE OUTSIDERS) original motion picture score to the 1990 dramatic epic THE GODFATHER CODA: THE DEATH OF MICHAEL CORLEONE. Written by Mario Puzo and Francis Ford Coppola and directed by Coppola himself, the film stars Al Pacino, Diane Keaton and Andy Garcia.

Composer Carmine Coppola shared musical responsibilities with Nino Rota on the first two films, together winning the Best Original Dramatic Score Academy Award for THE GODFATHER PART II. For the third chapter, director Coppola reunited with several other key contributors from the first two epics, such as cinematographer Gordon Willis and production designer Dean Tavoularis, but with the passing of Rota in 1979, the director’s father was the logical choice to score the final part of the Corleone crime saga. Using Rota’s music while composing new material, the score is operatic in its power, honoring the classic GODFATHER themes and motifs within a musical storm of brilliant original material including the Oscar-nominated song “Promise Me You’ll Remember” (performed by Harry Connick Jr.). Love, loss, death, power and sin – you’ll find it all here in this magnificent work, finally unleashed in this revelatory remastered and expanded presentation.

Produced by Dan Goldwasser and Neil S. Bulk, mixed by Chris Malone, and mastered by Doug Schwartz, this special 3-CD release, limited to 3000 units, includes previously unreleased and unused music and has been approved by Francis Ford Coppola and American Zoetrope.

Disc One showcases the film’s expanded score presentation as recorded, debuting many cues for the very first time, while Disc Two presents even more alternate cues, followed by several cues from the original 1972 film that were re-recorded. Disc Three features the remastered Original 1990 Soundtrack Album. The first two discs are newly remixed by Chris Malone from 6-track mixes found on the original ½” digital scoring masters and the third disc is sourced from the original digital album master. The exclusive, in-depth liner notes are by writer Tim Greiving and the sharp art design is by Dan Goldwasser.

[magnum-p.i.]

Hatte ich schon damit gerechnet, daß der dieses Jahr kommt. Brauche ich allerdings nicht. Wie es aussieht, scheint LLL keine großen Probleme zu haben, Paramount-Titel zu bringen. Alles andere läuft ja leider nicht so glatt, wie die aktuellen Bond-Verzögerungen beweisen.

[Mistermaffay]

Puh, interessiert das wirklich irgendwen? 
Godfather I und II ? Gewiss!

Aber Teil 3 ?! Der ist als Film ja auch schon deutlich weniger interessant. 

Und dann braucht es hier eine überteuerte 3(!) CD Box ?!
