GURIDI-BERNAOLA – Various film scores

http://www.encadenados.org/n37/images/bernaolaCD.JPG

The Luis Cernuda Foundation, named after the famous poet, the Provincial Council of Seville and Antonio Armet, the founder of the legendary classical music label Ensayo, joined forces in producing this recording of a live concert centering on the music of two major Basque classical composers who frequently wrote for the cinema: Jes�s Guridi Bidaola (1886-1961), best known for his orchestral suite Ten Basque Melodies (1941), and Carmelo Alonso Bernaola (1929-2002), the latter also acting as conductor. The Guridi excerpts include a passage from his opera Amaya (1920).

Regarding Bernaola, in addition to his concert-hall work, he composed anything from popular songs to TV signature tunes and film scores. The latter include several comedies, three Paul Naschy horror films, the western Cutthroats Nine and numerous prestige projects. Here he is represented by, among other themes, some of the music he composed for a screening of King Vidor’s silent film The Crowd (1928), his signature theme for the Spanish debate program La clave (1976-85) and that for the much-rerun family-oriented TV series Verano azul (1981-82), which, as one of his most familiar compositions, is placed at the end of the concert. In between, we find two compositions for films by Basilio Mart�n Patino, Nueve cartas a Berta (1966) and Los paraisos perdidos (1985), brought together in one track.

Thanks a lot!

Just wanted to refloat this thread. The old link got deleted by the authorities, but they left in this one below. Contrary to what I said above, Amaya is not simply an excerpt from Guridi's music for the opera of that name, but his adaptation of his own music for Luis Marquina's non-operatic film version of the Navarro Villoslada novel, with Susana Canales and Julio Pe�a as the leads.
