Don Pyle and Andrew Zealley - The Law of Enclosures (CD)
(Greek Buck - www.greekbuck.com)
[Genres: score, orchestral]
In
case you didn't know, Don Pyle and Andrew Zealley make up Toronto's Greek Buck, a great
independent duo that doesn't get the recognition it deserves. This release is the score
from a film called "The Law of Enclosures," directed by John Greyson. The score
itself is very moody, featuring twenty-six orchestral pieces, with occasional appearances
of vocals by Farawla and Sarah Polley (who has a lead role in the film). Despite these
vocals, most of the album is completely instrumental, with a wealth of string instruments,
including violins, a viola, violincello, and a guitar. Pyle and Zealley truly display a
well-developed talent for composing, as they have both crafted a wonderful film score that
rocks without rocking (that was not clever). By the way, this won the best score
award at 2001 Manitoba Film Festival.
