Quartet Records, in collaboration with GDM and Universal Music Publishing, presents a remastered reissue of one of Ennio Morricone’s most celebrated collaborations with Giuliano Montaldo (SACCO E VANZETTI, GLI INTOCCABILI, AD OGNI COSTO, IL GIOCATTOLO, TEMPO DI UCCIDERE). The 1973 historical drama GIORDANO BRUNO is about the free-thinking philosopher, poet and scientist Giordano Bruno (Gian Maria Volontè), who, fleeing from his enemies in the Catholic Church, has found some protection in Venice. But the Roman Inquisition, fearing his influence in Europe, wants to put him on trial for heresy.

The minimalist, cerebral and spiritually unsettling soundtrack adds additional layers of interpretation to the protagonist’s ideological drama. Morricone doesn’t seek to illustrate scenes directly, but rather to provoke an intellectual and sensory interpretation of what is happening on screen.

GIORDANO BRUNO was originally released on vinyl in Italy by RCA. The same program was reissued on CD in the 1990s, paired with its sister-score EL GRECO. An expanded 66-minute edition including virtually all the music recorded by Morricone for the film appeared on GDM in 2009, supervised by the composer and produced by Dániel Winkler and Claudio Fuiano. This is a reissue of the same program, mastered by Chris Malone. The booklet includes liner notes by Miguel Ángel Ordóñez discussing the movie, the music and the composer.
