Mae McKenna and Belinda Sykes. London Symphony Orchesta, Karl Jenkins River Queen is the story of a young woman's search for identity and love; a woman torn between the two worlds of white colonial New Zealand and native Maori culture. Directed by New Zealander Vincent Ward it stars Samantha Morton, Kiefer Sutherland, Stephen Rea, Cliff Curtis and Temuera Morrison. The film is released in the UK in June 2007 “Essentially, the music reflects the two cultures that pervade the film; the native [Maori] and the British, which in this instance is predominantly Irish. We've tried to stay away from the obvious 'haka' route making the native-sound more universally tribal and indefinable. The Irish element has a strong Celtic feel but I have endeavoured to use musical leit motifs [fragments of theme] depicting differing characters and ideas, from both sides of the divide, interweave, sometimes in the same cue” Karl Jenkins | | | In stock - usually despatched within 1 working day. |
