Ennio Morricone's soundtrack from Escalation, Roberto Faenza's directorial debut from 1968.
Morricone always took opportunities to work with first-time directors who were more open to new musical experiments. Faenza didn't have any ideas regarding the soundtrack for his first film, so he gave Morricone total freedom. To match the eccentric subject matter, Morricone invented fresh ideas and new sounds never used in film before. These experiments included overlaying sound effects produced by the human mouth, throat and larynx, performed by Carlo Nicchio and by the composer himself.
This 40th anniversary CD edition contains the complete score recorded for the movie and includes five extra tracks over the CAM CD and LP release.
