Sound of Cinema - Olympians
'Rising Phoenix', a new documentary film charting the history of the Paralympic Games is launched this week with a new score by Daniel Pemberton. Matthew Sweet features some of this music and other soundtracks which have taken their inspiration from the history of the Olympics, at a time originally earmarked for the launch of the Tokyo 2020 Paralympics.
The programme includes music from ‘Clash of the Titans’, ‘The Giant of Marathon’, ‘The Games’, ‘Foxcatcher’, ‘Unbroken’, ‘Race’, ‘Munich’, ‘Visions of Eight’, ‘I Tonya’, ‘Bhaag Milkha Bhaag’. The Classic Score of the Week is ..... (well what else could it be?) ........ Vangelis’s distinctive synth sounds for ‘Chariots of Fire’.
