Battleship Potemkin. A film by Sergei Eisenstein. Music by Pet Shop Boys.
This is a special centenary edition of Sergei Eisenstein’s legendary Battleship Potemkin featuring the celebrated Tenant / Lowe score performed by Pet Shop Boys and Dresdner Sinfoniker.
A fixture in the critical canon almost since its premiere, Eisenstein’s film about a 1905 naval mutiny was revolutionary both in form and content. Battleship Potemkin is renowned for its dynamic compositional strength and editing of such frame-perfect precision that it’s hard not to be swept along.
The newly performed score blends electronic beats with orchestral grandeur to create a contemporary cinematic experience.
