Bill Conti's That Championship Season
26-Nov-2009 - La-La Land Records has released the world premiere of Bill Conti’s orchestral score to the 1982 dramatic feature film That Championship Season, starring Robert Mitchum, Paul Sorvino, Martin Sheen, Stacy Keach and Bruce Dern and written and directed by Jason Miller, based upon his Pulitzer Prize-winning play. It started as a friendly meeting between 4 old buddies with their basketball coach and ended up in revealing the truth about their relationship. The meeting forces the five men to reveal their true identity, to be honest with each other for the first time in their lives. When the night comes to an end they decide to go back to the old glorious days and reunite into the team which won that championship season, back in 1957... Bill Conti’s stirring music anchors the tragedies and triumphs of this emotionally-charged drama, supporting the cast of superlative performances. Produced by Ford A. Thaxton and mastered from MGM vault elements by James Nelson, this limited edition of 1200 copies features in-depth liner notes by Randall Larson.
Available from La-La Land Records.
