The Red Violin (soundtrack)
The Red Violin is the original soundtrack album on the Sony Classical label of the 1999 film The Red Violin (original title: Le violon rouge), starring Carlo Cecchi, Sandra Oh and Samuel L. Jackson. The original score and songs were composed by John Corigliano[4] and performed by Philharmonia Orchestra with Esa-Pekka Salonen conducting. The album won the Academy Award for Best Original Score[5] and was nominated for a Grammy Award for Best Instrumental Composition Written for a Motion Picture, Television or Other Visual Media, but lost to the score of A Bug's Life. CompositionFilm director François Girard stated violinist Joshua Bell and Corigliano were involved from the outset and reviewed every version of the screenplay as it was in development.[6] Much of the score had to be written before principal photography, which is rare in film.[4] After shooting completed, Corigliano finished "Anna's Theme".[7] Track listing
