    "Andrei Sigle's moving compositions recall the sweep of late 19th century Russian composers..." - Variety

    Performed by Polar Music Prize winning conductor Valery Gergiev's Orchestra of the Mariinsky Theatre, Russian composer Andrey Sigle's score for Alexander Sokurov's award-winning drama Alexandra, is an immensely beautiful and emotional film score with a distinct classical sound.

    The film, which was nominated to the 2007 Golden Palm at the Cannes Film Festival, tells the story about an elderly woman who visits her grandson at his army camp inside Chechnya. Sigle's orchestral score is both intimate and grand, filled with evocative themes and warm and passionate orchestrations. Cinema Without Border's wrote that the music is "ever evocative and never intrusive, beautiful in its own right" and "haunts with an indelible impression."

    Our release of the soundtrack co-incides with the US DVD release of the film on April 7.

    Very impressive orchestral score, largely evoking the spirit and beauty of the romantic era composers , esp. the great Russians, into this heartwarming, string-driven and intense musical drama really captivated me even from the first note. Congrats to Mikael for another outstanding release!

    Which "great" Russian composers is that? So many to choose from.

    A bit more specific?

  5. This was one of my favourite films from last year. The score has a lovely, gentle presence in the film.

    But it was written for a film that came out in 2007. If I had of known about it in 2007 it would have made my Top 10. BTW, score of the year... UN HOMME ET SON CHIEN by Philippe Rombi.. by a landslide!
