Description

Teorema is a film directed by Pier Paolo Pasolini, publicly presented for the first time in September 1968 at the International Film Festival in Venice; it immediately shocked its viewers, like many other of Pasolinis works, and was seized by the Public Prosecutor of Rome and the director, with producer Donato Leoni, were charged with obscenity and eventually absolved.

The music of the film is divided in two: the original vinyl B-side is entirely occupied by Mozarts Messa da Requiem, while the A-side houses five original compositions written by Ennio Morricone. These ones consist of two opening dissonant and discordant tracks, solely played with classical instruments (Teorema, Frammenti), a ballad sung by the Junior Trio (Fruscio di green leaves), a piece that reminds of a western movie by Sergio Leone (Lultima corrida) and a closing instrumental beat/psych song (Beat N° 3).

This Vinyl Magic reissue faithfully reproduces the original 1968 version, and is printed in a limited edition on 180gr transparent lime coloured vinyl.
