The soundtracks were composed by Polish cinematic music composer Andrzej KorzynskiFind albums by this artist. The music was recorded by an East German orchestra conducted by Manfred RosenbergFind albums by this artist. The album presents thirty one short tracks, which were incorporated into the soundtracks of four movies. Shortly after the last of these four films were made Bleiweiss and his family escaped from East Germany to West Germany, where he continued his work as a film director. The music, as usual in the case of Korzynski, is full of atmosphere and tension, wonderfully arranged for orchestra and synthesizers, and sound completely contemporary and untouched by the passing time. It is a wonderful example of cinematic / incidental music that has a complete and full "life" by itself and is fascinating without the initially intended role as soundtrack. Korzynski is a masterful composer, who wrote many soundtracks for TV and cinema over the years but also composed popular music As usual GADFind albums on this label Records bring this music to our attention, saving it from oblivion, which is truly commendable. This album is the fourth album with soundtrack music composed by Korzynski released by GAD over the years.
