Last evening I watched Terrence Malick’s philosophical film with my wife. The visual images and background music are stunning. Here is a link to the music from the film. Much of this music was familiar, but there were many pieces new to me, or at least I do not have them among my collection. I added several this morning.
If I were to pull out a few from this list I would highly recommend the following.
- The Moldau by Bedrich Smetana
- Symphony No. 4 by Brahms
- Mussorgsky: Pictures at an Exhibition
- Harold in Italy by Hector Berlioz
- Lacrimosa 2 by Zbigniew Preisner or also known as A Requiem for My Friend. A haunting piece of music.
- Symphony No. 3 by Henryk Górecki
- Symphony No. 1 by Gustav Mahler
The film is on the long side, but the photography and music is worth the time.
