O.S.T./PIERO PICCIONI – CADAVERI ECCELLENTI

A superb soundtrack composed for the Francesco Rosi’s film Cadaveri Eccellenti based on the novel Il Trattato by Leonardo Sciascia. A portrait of Italy during the infamous Years of Lead (Anni di Piombo), Cadaveri Eccellenti presented in 1976 at the Cannes Film Festival caused an outcry for the inconvenient issues addressed. Jazz and funky tunes are mixed here with a big orchestra-style peculiar of the best composition by the maestro Piero Piccioni, this album is an enjoyable journey into dark and light atmospheres. Limited edition of 500 copies.
