Concerto per pistola solista

Beat Records keeps on exploring original soundtracks composed by Francesco de Masi with this release of Concerto per pistola solista, a movie directed in 1970 by Michele Lupo that starred the great Gastone Moschin as a busy policeman looking for a mysterious assassin. The score composed by the Maestro is intense and provides excellent support to the movie. A symphonic score performed by a great orchestra, it is accomplished through gorgeous sounds and keen intuition, starting with the main titles in which we hear some gunshots mimicked by the music. A meeting between the Maestro and the Director that for all the duration of their collaboration gave great artistic results, a joint venture that ended right in this occasion. The incomplete soundtrack was previously released by CAM, but thanks to our collaboration with the historical label we were able to present all the music that was composed for the movie, from the original master tapes, for more than 70 minutes of great compositions by the popular Roman composer

The CD is a limited edition of 500 copies and comes in a jewel case with a 12-page booklet. Mastering by Claudio Fuiano, liner notes by Filippo de Masi and graphic layout by Daniele De Gemini.

A precious addition to your collection!
