Renaud Capuçon

Cinema

Renaud Capuçon has been in love with film music since, as a 12-year-old, he heard Ennio Morricone’s marvellous score for Cinema Paradiso. A fine arrangement of that music for violin and orchestra is the first of 19 movie excerpts that make up this 76minute album. Most people will know The Godfather and Out Of Africa, but stuff like the score for Yentl, or Joyeux Noël, are pleasing rarities. A perfect stocking filler for Christmas.
