New In Soundtracks [Issue #20]
Andrey Dergatchev
The Return (CD ECM)

The moving score to the directorial debut of Andrey Zvyagintsev’s powerful film, The Return, lays out an emotional, haunting collection of ethereal tracks often interspersed with the actors’ Russian dialogue from the movie. Like recordings of great operas or readings of plays, Dergatchev’s work is so compelling that it creates a story within itself of an astounding narrative.
