Sotto Le Nuvole (Pompeii: Below the Clouds)

Description

Cover Notes: `Sotto le Nuvole’ is less a soundtrack than a process of aeration – a sonic puncture in the material of the film which allows its central message to breathe, and a remarkable experiment at the limits of the saxophone’s possibility. ‘It was important to me that the music was whispered in the same landscape that Gianfranco has worked for the past three years, so that you can hear the volcanic air gulping, the lapping of the waves, the steam and bubbles popping against John and Seymour’s saxophone breaths – an echo from a suspended time’.
