Описание:
This hour-long film provides a sighting of film composer Craig Armstrong performing for solo piano, including works from Moulin Rouge, William Shakespeare’s Romeo & Juliet and Orphans. The film alternates between footage of Armstrong in performance at Studio Йclair in Paris and shots of the cinematic Parisian landscape. On ‘Be Still My Soul’ for example, we get a tour of parks, with slow close-ups of frost-dappled leaves and toy boats sailing across ponds. It’s all very beautiful, but in combination with Armstrong’s reverb-soaked, contemplative keystrokes, you can’t help but think: isn’t this what the inside of my mum’s head is like? There are some particularly beautiful resonances between the film and music though, with Armstrong’s stately melancholy being reflected by the beautiful 35mm footage of the city’s historic architecture. Appropriately, a rendition of ‘Satine’s Theme’ is accompanied by shots of the Moulin Rouge and the present day seediness of the Pigalle district. For the penultimate piece, Armstrong dabbles with flickering delay-looped piano phrases, with images of the Eiffel Tower’s night time light show as a highly appropriate visual accompaniment. Finally, ‘Reverse’ is, as the title suggests, a piece based on electronic backwards effects, and there’s no denying the power in the simplicity of both its composition and delivery. It’s rare to come across a music DVD with such impeccably high production values for its visual element, but given Armstrong’s trade, it’s exactly what you’d hope for.
