Addio, Fratello Crudele - 10/10 - Revisione del John Mansell, presentato a (Inglese)
Originally issued on a two LP set back in 1971, which also featured Morricone’s score to INCONTRO, this is the first ever CD releases of this near forgotten Morricone score, again it is Digit movies that we have to thank for locating and restoring this soundtrack from the vaults of CAM records in Italy.

Poignant, emotional, highly lyrical and totally mesmerizing is the way in which I would like to describe Ennio Morricone’s, gracious and romantically laced score to ADDIO FRATELLO CRUDELE (Tis, pity she’s a whore). The opening track is certainly a very good example of what we can expect from the remainder of the score, Giovanni and Annabelle is a theme that is filled with all the mixed emotions that one associates with love, happiness, sadness, hurt, tinges of melancholy but above all devotion and tenderness. This is a delicate tone poem performed at the outset by solo woodwind, enhanced and supported by underlying or layered strings as only Morricone can provide, and solo violin that are underscored by harp. The theme gradually builds with the string section becoming stronger as it progresses. The composer also adds subtle flourishes from harpsichord, that further embelish and punctuate the strings and wood wind, the composition then returns to solo woodwind and comes to its conclusion as it began. Track number two FRATE BONAVENTURA is also a fairly low key sounding composition, strings again are used in predominance, along with wood wind and harpsichord, and at first we hear little interludes of chorale backing, which after a while become more pronounced and at times overpower slightly the strings. I must admit that I personally think that this is one of the Maestro,s most lovely sounding scores, its subtle but strong expressive themes being attractive, haunting and highly sensitive. Track number three IL MIO MONDO CON LEI ERA PERFETTO, too features wood wind as its main solo instrument, this time supported by a lightly strummed guitar, which adds depth to the cue. So overall, this is a jewel of a soundtrack, a beautiful and lyrical work that will be welcomed by any real fan of Ennio Morricone, and also a score that once listened to will be returned too on many occasions. Highly recommended.
Digitmovies proudly presents the long awaited CD release of M° Ennio Morricone’s score for the movie „Addio fratello crudele” („’Tis pity, she’s a whore”) directed in 1970 by Giuseppe Patroni Griffi, one of the most versatile artists to emerge from the Italian film industry in the last century (he sadly passed away a year ago, in 2005 December). Director/writer Patroni Griffi freely adapted his screenplay from Shakespeare contemporary John Ford's Jacobean tragedy written in 1627. The movie – stunningly photographed by Vittorio Storaro – features a first rate international cast: the British born iconic beauty Charlotte Rampling (playing the role of Annabella), Oliver Tobias (as Giovanni), Italian actors Fabio Testi (as Soranzo) and Antonio Falsi (as Frate Bonaventura). This CD project was made possible thanks to the generous cooperation of C.A.M. (in whose archives the original stereophonic master tapes have been preserved) and to Maestro Ennio Morricone himself who authorized every selected track and supervised the production. During the film’s theatrical release (1971-72) only a 45 rpm single was released in Japan, while the first long play album containing 9 selections (with appr. 32 minutes playing time) appeared only in the year of 1979 in France (coupled with Morricone’s score “Incontro”). This premier CD release contains all but one of the album tracks (Mº Morricone decided not to include here the simplistic piece “Tassilo”) and 8 tracks that have never been released before. Morricone’s medieval flavoured score is rich in haunting melodies and brilliant orchestration ideas. The main theme “Giovanni e Annabella” – certainly one of the most beautiful love themes Morricone ever composed – opens the movie and our disc as well: after a peaceful harp introduction the heart-touching melody played by oboe describes perfectly the intense but hopeless love between brother and sister. The love theme is reprised several times throughout the score (tr.6, tr.9, tr.12, tr.14, tr.15). Fragments of this particular motif reappear in the long, meditative piece “Frate Bonaventura” (apart from the original album version (tr.11) a longer unreleased version (tr.2) is also included here) where Morricone brilliantly incorporates in his music also the notes of the famous chant “Dies Ireae” (often cited in Mº Morricone’s compositions). Noteworthy is the use of choir (Cantori Moderni di Alessandroni) and the famous “Morriconian” layered strings. Another jewel of the score is the theme written for Soranzo’s character (tr.8). Its first part is a musical portrayal of the arrogant nobleman, while the second part (for oboe, bassoon, flute then enhanced by choir and orchestra) accompanies the wedding night love scene, one of the artistic highlights of Italian cinema, photography and music. Giovanni’s suffering and pain caused by forbidden love is reflected in the sacral piece “In fondo al pozzo” (tr.5). The score is enriched with period music such as the quiet, low-key composition for guitar and recorder (tr.3) and the delicious canon (tr.10). In contrast to the melodic tracks, Morricone also recorded some experimental compositions (tr.4, tr.7, tr.13) that were not used in the final cut of the movie. The concluding requiem finely performed by I Cantori Moderni (tr.16) emphasizes the tragic ending: uncompassion and death.
