Shigeru Umebayashi - Music For Film
Presented by Film Fest Ghent, Shigeru Umebayashi - Music For Film is the sixth album from the series on Silva Screen Records. This year, Silva Screen is honoured to release three albums of music by three outstanding composers, Shigeru Umebayashi, Mychael Danna and Gabriel Yared, featuring previously unreleased music, recorded by the Brussels Philharmonic under the baton of Dirk Brossé.
Shigeru Umebayashi - Music For Film is an updated version of Film Fest Ghent’s 2010 tribute to the composer’s work which featured his most celebrated music. This edition includes material that has not been otherwise released featuring two pieces from A Single Man, a cue from the anthology film Hero and ‘Moyou’, a new arrangement from his breakthrough score Sorekara, which features in the film The Grandmaster.
Shigeru Umebayashi is an internationally renowned composer who is best known for creating ‘Yumeji’s Theme’ for Wong Kar-wai’s film In The Mood For Love. In addition to collaborating with Wong Kar-wai on 2046, Umebayashi was the music producer and composer for Zhang Yimou’s films House Of Flying Daggers and Curse Of The Golden Flower.
“Umebayashi’s oeuvre can be found at the confluence of Western and Eastern music. It is unique, stylistically original, authentic in colour and has its own character. Its vibrant intensity transports us. It is Ume” - Dirk Brossé

Gabriel Yared - Music For Film
Gabriel Yared - Music For Film
Presented by Film Fest Ghent, Gabriel Yared - Music For Film is the seventh album from the series on Silva Screen Records. This year, Silva Screen is honoured to release three albums of music by three outstanding composers, Gabriel Yared, Shigeru Umebayashi and Mychael Danna, featuring previously unreleased music, recorded by the Brussels Philharmonic and the Vlaams Radiokoor under the baton of Dirk Brossé.
Oscar winning composer Gabriel Yared has been associated with Film Fest Ghent’s film music events since the establishment of the World Soundtrack Academy. When the festival launched the World Soundtrack Awards in 2001, he appeared at the very first World Soundtrack Awards Ceremony & Concert as the guest of honour. At this inaugural event, he also received the festival’s Special Joseph Plateau Honorary Award from director Jean-Jacques Annaud, for whom he scored L’amant and Wings of Courage. In 2004 the World Soundtrack Academy awarded him the Film Composer of the Year Award for Cold Mountain, one of his many acclaimed collaborations with director Anthony Minghella.
In celebration of Gabriel Yared’s 2020 Lifetime Achievement Award and on the original album’s
10th anniversary, Silva Screen Records have reissued the Gabriel Yared - Music For Film album, greatly expanding it with 50 minutes of additional music. The newly recorded pieces include ‘Ut Jucundas’, composed in 1992 for a Gaz de France advertisement, ‘Rosa’s Theme’ from Yared’s newest work The Life Ahead, ‘Elegy for Charlotte’ from Autumn in New York, the ‘End Credits’ from Amelia and the premiere recording of the City of Angels suite. The album also contains suites especially created for this album from L’avion, Les saveurs du Palais and Tom à la ferme and three previously unreleased tracks, recorded at the 2011 sessions, from L’amant, Tatie Danielle and Coco Chanel & Igor Stravinsky.
One of the most well-respected composers in film, Yared won an Academy Award for his score to Anthony Minghella’s The English Patient, which also won him a BAFTA, a Golden Globe and a Grammy. Yared was originally known for his work in French cinema, starting with Jean-Luc Godard and later Jean-Jacques Beineix (Betty Blue) and Jean-Jacques Annaud (The Lover). He also composed ballet music for works such as Clavigo for The Paris Opera and Wayne McGregor’s Raven Girl for The Royal Opera Ballet.
“I hope that by listening to some of my film music and just closing your eyes, you can imagine and invent your own film. This is what music aims for, just any kind of music: to trigger the imagination and let you create your own images, your own world.” - Gabriel Yared
