Summary
|
Alazar,
a simple farmer who is also a beekeeper, meets the Three
Wise Men Caspar, Melchior and Balthazar, who have set off
to celebrate the arrival on earth of the Messiah. Alazar's
magic bees become magically transformed into the tail of
the bright comet which leads the four of them to the manger.
At first, the brave young farmer's son is on the point of
leaving the Wise Men to their fate because he has been forced
against his will by their magic powers to leave his pregnant
wife Izirah behind. He only very reluctantly agrees to the
Kings' request to accompany them. Although the Three Wise
Men make it very clear to him how important the Messiah's
arrival on earth is, the relationship between the four men
remains very tense. Nevertheless, despite all disagreements,
our travelling companions soon become firm friends -and
after several exciting adventures they finally succeed in
locating the manger. The Three Kings then allow Alazar to
return home to his loving wife. Written by Anonymous

About
the music
|
This
third Image Music release features Ennio Morricone working
with his son Andrea Morricone. Andrea has long been his father's
musical assistant and has contributed themes to some of his
father's scores, notably the famous love theme from Cinema
Pradiso. Andrea is now a respected film composer in his own
right, with both film and television works to his credit.
The music from IL Quarto Re (1995) is full of orchestral and
choral splendour, with all the usual Morricone elements that
make The Mission so popular. There are three distinctive and
attractive themes. 'Exultat' is stirring and addictive, 'Il
Quarto Re' is reflective and beautiful, and 'Con Giogia Serena'
is triumphant and bright, very similar to one of the themes
in City of Joy. All are given both orchestral and choral arrangements
and are developed sufficiently to keep the music fresh. Some
secondary tension material is also provided, but even this
is more agreeable than you might think.(Here) |

Our friend,
Rodison C. Leonardo, was born in
the Philippines, a native Filipino. You can also call him by his
nickname Jing. He's 34 years old, a Roman Catholic. He holds a
degree of Bachelor of Science in Electronics and Communication
Engineering. There was once an occurrence in his life he wanted
to enter Priesthood after his graduation in college. For some
personal reasons, he didn't continue to pursue it. So now he's
been working at Holcim Cement Plant for eight years. Holcim is
one of the biggest cement plants in the Philippines, and he holds
the position there as Maintenance Planner. Until now it's very
hard to admit that he's still a bachelor at his mature age. He
only diverts his time to watch film or hear music after his work.
He loves film and music. His real hobbies are to collect music
in LPs and CDs, and also to collect films in VHS, VCD and DVD
as well. He started to like Sir Ennio Morricone's music when he
saw the film "The Mission" in 1995. He considered The
Mission music 'very influential' to him. Seeking more of Sir Ennio's
works, he joined in one of Morricone's prestige forums. There
he met many friends in different nations who really loved to help
those who were beginners of knowing Sir Ennio and his magnificent
scores. He still makes contact to some of them through e-mail.
Knowing friends who have one common goal, "to spread the
music of Sir Ennio Morricone", is a very remarkable and tremendous
experience for him. It's so great to know there's someone in the
Philippines who really appreciate Maestro Ennio Morricone, truly
the legend of film music.
