Craig Armstrong

[Eine Alpensinfonie]

Craig Armstrong is best known for his film scores, including
William Shakespeare's Romeo & Juliet
Moulin Rouge
The Quiet American
World Trade Center
Elizabeth: The Golden Age
Love Actually
The Incredible Hulk

However, he has a fair number of concert works to be proud of:
Slow Movement for strings
20 Movements for orchestra
One Minute
Immer
When Morning Turns to Light

For anyone wanting to dabble, this might be a good place to start.

What IS it with all these Armstrong threads?!

You got a bee in the bonnet, Alpie?

Mangerton will have something to say about it!

Invictus maneo....

It is indeed a good disc , though nothing to frighten Beethoven , Brahms , Elgar etc

Of course not, but there are so many composers who are ignored simply because they are not in th musical premier league.

Thanks Eine. A very good film composer whose atmospheric music has accompanied memorable moments in cinema. I very much liked 'Finding Beauty' from 'Saving Private Ryan' and all of the 'Moulin Rouge' score, along with pieces like 'Weather Storm' -

I didn't realise that he had also written concert works and will certainly have a listen to them.
