Quartet Records has released a soundtrack album for the French/Spanish co-production Le moine (The Monk). The album includes the film’s original score composed by Alberto Iglesias who is having a busy year with two potential Award contenders, including the John Le Carre adaptation Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Spy and Pedro Almadovar’s The Skin I Live In coming out later this year. The music for Le Moine is performed by The London Session Orchestra and the Metro Voices. The soundtrack is now available to order from Europe on Quartet Records’ website, where you can also listen to audio clips. The album is also available in the US from Screen Archives. Le moine directed by Dominik Moll is an adaptation of the classic 1796 Gothic novel by Mathew Gregory Lewis and centers around Capucin Ambrosio, a pious, well-respected monk in Spain and his violent downfall. The movie stars stars Vincent Cassel and Geraldine Chaplin. The thriller was released in France last month. A domestic release has yet to be announced.
