8-Aug-2008 - Intrada Records has released in their Special Collection the world CD premiere of the score for Shogun. The powerful score by Maurice Jarre offers rich symphonic music by turns stirring, melodic, flavorful, and exciting.  Jarre melds the evocative sounds of Japan with a full orchestra to create a world of Japan at the dawn of the 17th Century. Moving romantic ideas, exciting action sequences, and more! In 1980, Jarre assembled a terrific representation of his score for LP on the RSO label, fashions one of his most compelling albums of a sensational award-laden career. This CD presents this program, newly re-mastered by Universal Music Group engineers, packaged with the original LP art plus liner notes from John Takis. Maurice Jarre conducts the orchestra. This release is limited to 3000 copies.
