Director’s Note on the Film Music

The work on the film score started long before shooting. Thanks to Terrence Malick, I had the chance of meeting  Hanan Townshend. From the start, a collaboration with him seemed very stimulating. I wanted to combine synthetic sounds with the concrete sounds of wind instruments, recorded in such a way that the material component of the instruments emerges. I felt that the two levels, sometimes with the addition of string instruments, successfully reflect the two dimensions of the film: contemporary and the 1700s. Just like the protagonists sum up the characters in the present and past, the music of the past and future become one. Hanan and Federico Pascucci, along with the wind ensemble of Errichetta Underground, have made my dream a reality. I couldn’t have wished for anything better.

Composer’s Note

The score for The Book of Vision comes from a fruitful composer-director collaboration. Working with various pre-recorded pieces and improvisations from Errichetta Underground, director Carlo Hintermann and I created a collage-like score that weaves through different worlds of the film. The score is built around the saxophone, often riffing off inspiring classical pieces from the likes of Brahms and Liszt. Compositionally, the original work is an extension of this world, blending clarinet, saxophone ensemble and strings to enhance the mystical, woody soundscape. Federico Pascucci’s additions to the score rounds out the soundtrack and brings a lovely romantic heartbeat. A very unique collaboration for a unique film.
