\n<\/strong><\/p>\nIn celebration of John Williams\u2018 90th birthday and the 25th Anniversary of the acclaimed feature film AMISTAD, La-La Land Records, Paramount Pictures, DreamWorks Pictures and Geffen Records present AMISTAD, a special 2-CD remastered and expanded release of Academy Award-Winning composer John Williams\u2019 (E.T., SCHINDLER\u2019S LIST, SAVING PRIVATE RYAN) original motion picture score to the renowned 1997 big-screen historical drama directed by Steven Spielberg and starring Morgan Freeman, Anthony Hopkins and Djimon Hounsou. Maestro Williams\u2019 masterwork encompasses the depths and heights of human experience, unleashing unforgettable moments of anguish and uplift as it supports the film\u2019s true chronicling of the 1839 African slave ship revolt abord the La Amistad and its subsequent landmark U.S. court case.<\/p>\n
A breathtaking fusion of orchestral Americana with African percussion rhythms and vocal chanting, this important John Williams score finally gets a definitive release with this deluxe 2-CD presentation, meticulously produced, edited and mastered by Mike Matessino, in consultation with the composer and director.<\/p>\n
Remastered in high resolution from studio master elements, Disc One and Disc Two of this program features the film Score Presentation, which expands the original 1997 soundtrack album by almost double its length, including cues not used in the film. The score presentation is followed on Disc Two by 50 minutes of bonus tracks including source music, concert arrangements, and alternates – some of which offer completely different approaches than the film versions. The exclusive, in-depth liner notes are by writer Jeff Bond, with the packaging\u2019s elegant design by Jim Titus. This is a limited edition release of 5000 units.<\/p>\n
