BEST FILM SCORES OF SEPTEMBER 2019
In Noah Land, composer Leon Gurvitch applies piano in many fascinating ways.  The bulk of the score consists of largely solo piano, combining mature and well-developed pieces with others that feel more akin to classical improvisations or etudes.  In all, Noah Land showcases fantastic piano work and a penchant for the experimental – something always welcome in film music.

BY THE FILM SCORER

 

The score for the film was written and partially performed by neoclassical composer Leon Gurvitch who performs the piano passages that create the backbone of the work along with a small chamber ensemble of strings and woodwinds. The end result is an incredibly rich, intimate and at times rather dark score… An overall mood of melancholy surrounds Noah Land, and on occasion, breaks into near thriller styled writing… That said, the majority of the score is centered around Gurvitch’s virtuoso piano performances accompanied by strings and woodwinds… There’s really no reason not to give this emotionally raw work a go.

BY SOUNDTRACK UNIVERSE

 

NOAH LAND is a score that should be listened to alone and maybe in a darkened room with no distractions, it will transport you to a place that is maybe less stressful than the one you are in. Dramatic, romantic, and highly emotive. Recommended.
