Savina, Carlo -& Aldemaro Romero-
Simon Bolivar
We are pleased to release the complete edition CD of the OST by Carlo Savina and Aldemaro Romero for the historical film "Simon Bolivar." The film was presented at the XI Festival of Moscow (1969) where it won the Special Jury Prize. Carlo Savina and Aldemaro Romero work together on this symphonic score dominated by the charming sounds of Latin America. The historical figure of Simon Bolivar is emphasized through heroic passages for orchestra and chorus which alternate with a romantic love theme and music for the battle scenes. C.A.M. originally released a vinyl LP (SAG 9022) with eighteen stereo selections (lasting 33:09min) which was reissued for the first time on CD (CSE 092) in 1992 in the C.A.M. Soundtrack Encyclopedia series. Thanks to the stereo master tapes from the original recording session, which were kept in excellent condition, we discovered about forty minutes of previously unreleased material such as alternative mixes and film versions. Limited edition of 300 copies.
