Description:

Born in 1960, this is a new album by Eric Trafas, one of the finest trumpeter/musicians of his generation. This is a collection of film music by Trafas, one of the world's leading jazz musicians, whose style has often been compared to Miles Davis. Revisiting some of the greatest musical works from the golden age of cinema and adding his own unique touch, Trafas' music is revisited and a new sound is added to this remarkable jazz album.The Great Thief" starring Jean-Paul Belmondo, Fellini's "The Road", "One Silver Dollar" sung by Marilyn Monroe in the movie "The River of No Return", "Phantom", "Elevator on the Death Row", TV drama "Dandy 2" starring Roger Moore and Tony Curtis. Dandy 2," starring Roger Moore and Tony Curtis, and "The Evening Sun," starring Yves Montand and Romy Schneider, were among the films that brought back memories of being a movie fan, of sitting in dark movie theaters as a child or teenager, and were planned as a jazz tribute to the celluloid that movies illuminate. The album is a tribute to Nino Rota, John Barry, Ennio Morricone, Miles, Michel Magne, and others who made film music along with their films.
