Portuguese composer Nuno Malo, whose score for Julgamento was recently released by MovieScore Media, has written an incredibly moving orchestral score for Amália, a dramatic portrayal of one of Portugal's most famous musical personalities - Fado legend Amália Rodriguez. If you have already checked out Julgamento, you know that Nuno Malo is a melody-driven composer who has a very firm belief in the role of strong themes - Amália showcases this even more, and is at the same time a very romantic, beautiful score where Malo's rich string writing forms the backbone of the music. Among the many gorgeous compositions on the album are two versions of "Lament: Fado Dos Meus Erros" - the main theme of the score which is presented in two versions of which one features a very moving cello solo by Tina Guo. Our CD also features two original songs performed by Amália.
