"Philip Glass's original score to Monique Gardenberg's 1995 political thriller Jenipapo, starring Henry Czerny, brought the composer another opportunity to write against the backdrop of the Brazilian landscape and the tumult of political upheaval. The story of the film follows a reporter in his search to track down an influential priest who has gone silent during a political battle over Brazil's forests. Glass' score reflects the political implications of the film as well as the vast canvas against which it is set. With this release, Orange Mountain Music continues its 'From the Philip Glass Recording Archive' series which seeks to document and expand the composer's recorded legacy." |
