La-La Land Records, Paramount Pictures and Geffen Records proudly present a remastered and expanded Limited Edition 2-CD release of acclaimed composer Nino Rota’s (8 1/2, LA DOLCE VITA, THE GODFATHER) Oscar-winning original motion picture score to the 1974 masterpiece THE GODFATHER PART II starring Al Pacino, Robert Duvall, Diane Keaton and Robert DeNiro, and directed by Francis Ford Coppola.

This deluxe release of Nino Rota’s brilliant score marks the 50th Anniversary of the classic second film in THE GODFATHER saga - arguably the greatest sequel of all time - and its iconic music, both of which have cemented themselves into our culture for eternity. Beyond the composer’s artful reprisals and interpretations of first film’s legendary waltz and love themes, the music of PART II soars further with Rota’s emotional new themes and explorations that enrich the film’s epic nature. And the Academy took note - among the film’s eleven Oscars, including Best Picture, the composer won for Best Original Score.

Produced by Dan Goldwasser and Neil S. Bulk, mixed by Chris Malone from original multi-track material, and mastered by Doug Schwartz, this special 2-CD release, limited to 5000 units, includes previously unreleased and unused music and has been approved by Francis Ford Coppola and American Zoetrope. Disc One showcases the film’s expanded score presentation along with Nino Rota source music and additional material, while Disc Two presents the remastered Original Soundtrack Album and also source cues, showcasing music by Carmine Coppola, as well as a rare Nino Rota demo recording! The exclusive, in-depth liner notes are by writer Tim Greiving and the sharp art design is by Dan Goldwasser. -LA-LA LAND
