“If I talk about ‘The Lost Continent’, I talk about one of my favorites, just because it gave me the opportunity to show myself as a man and as a composer. I was gone for more than six months in Indonesia. At that time, for an Italian, going to Indonesia was like Marco Polo going to China! I found there what I expected to find: in their forests were many bamboo trees with which I created incredible sounds. The bamboo, opened in the middle and laid on the floor, made sounds in “pitch”. Using the “diapason” I made a “scale” out of it! (…) I did not have any problem with scoring this movie. I loved the Indonesian music, but I wrote music that reflected my personality. The music took ten days to write, arrange and conduct, and I am very satisfied with what I did (…).” From an interview with the Maestro Lavagnino, one of the legendary Italian score masters.
Recorded directly from the soundtrack of the Cannes and Berlin festival prize-winning film ‘The Lost Continent’.
