Bruc - 10/10 - Recensie van John Mansell, ingevoerd op (Engels)



Epic and future classic film scores come along very few and far between, so when one does arrive it is important that we as soundtrack collectors support it and embrace it and also encourage it’s composer with positive feedback, plus we must ensure that all our fellow collectors are aware of it’s existence, so they too can appreciate it. BRUC is one such instance, this is a score that I would have to say is already on my top twenty films scores list. The reasons for this being is that it is not only a work of thunderous and epic magnitude but it also is a score that oozes class and boasts a remarkable collection of melodious and haunting compositions courtesy of highly talented Spanish Maestro Xavier Capellas. BRUC is a period piece set in 1808, and centres around a young man Joan who is just 20 years of age who leads a small group of followers and ambushes Napoleons grand army on the border of France and Spain, because of the element of surprise the smaller force inflicts a humiliating defeat upon the superior French force and infuriates and embarrasses the Emperor Napoleon who sends his most trusted Captain to track down the young Spaniard, what ensues is a brutal and relentless manhunt. Capellas music is as brutal and unrelenting as the film itself and heightens the already taught and exciting atmosphere of the production. But saying this the composer also etches the movie with some of the most haunting and melodious tone poems that I have heard in some time. Again and again you will listen to this score and on each occasion will find something new and fresh within it. This is a score that has many faces, sensitive, emotive and also savage and powerful. It is performed in the main by a large orchestra (The Kiev Symphony) which is supported by the use of featured instruments such as, bouzouki, daduk, cello, violin and guitar. The composer also effectively utilizes choir and solo female voice the latter adding a softer but also and earthy sound to the work. In track number 11, WHEN WILL I SEE YOU AGAIN ? We are treated to a heartrending melody as bouzouki, violin and cello combine to create a mournful but highly emotional piece which is unfortunately short lived. Track two is also a short lived but effecting cue where the composer utilizes daduk underlined by subtle strings and augmented by guitar again creating an poignant mood.

Track number three ECHO is one of the scores highlights, thunderous percussion and female voice herald its beginning, then the brass enter the equation creating a tense and urgent atmosphere, strings join the proceedings and carry it forward in a forthright and purposeful fashion. The strings then combine with horns and percussion to give the central theme a full work out, this is a powerful and resounding composition and to be honest the entire score is a triumph to be savoured, enjoyed and held in high regard by collectors and aficionados of movie music, I am of the opinion that the many composers that are now becoming popular from Spain will in the future be our A lister’s or high profile movie music Maestro’s and Maestro’s they are too in the true sense of the word as they are all meticulous and original music smiths that bring much to the art of scoring films and have studied the subject of music composition in depth and earnest. Xavier Capellas is in my opinion one of the most talented composers I have come across during my time collecting, reviewing and talking/writing about film music. Buy this compact disc or regret it forever.
