Quartet Records, in collaboration with GDM and Finross, presents a remastered reissue of the expanded edition of TRE COLONNE IN CRONACA, one of the great Ennio Morricone efforts of the early '90s for the film of Carlo Vanzina, starring Gian Maria Volonte. The film is a chronicle of the dark maneuvers made by a politician to seize an opposition newspaper. A Muslim terrorist receives the order to kill a stockbroker, which triggers a series of blackmail and deception. A brave journalist intends to shed light on all these murky matters, but the politician has no scruples and knows how to move with extraordinary skill.

Being a great admirer of Elio Petri's work, and in particular of INVESTIGATION OF A CITIZEN ABOVE SUSPICION, Vanzina relied on the actor (Volonte), the editor (Ruggero Mastroianni), the cinematographer (Luigi Kuveiller) and the composer of that film to draw a line of reference to his movie. Morricone assumes the principles that govern his work for Petri, reformulating them. There is no bold experimentation, but the subversive elements, intensity and expressiveness remain. The music has a grotesque, sly and perverse character, a nod to the sensationalism of the front pages.

The album of TRE COLONNE IN CRONACA was released in 1990 on LP and CD in a short program of less than 30 minutes. In 2002, GDM CD Club released an expanded limited edition, supervised by the composer, and produced by Daniel Winkler and Claudio Fuiano, containing all the music recorded for the film and it quickly sold out. This is a reissue of the same program, revised and mastered by Chris Malone. The booklet includes liner notes by Miguel Angel Ordonez discussing the film, the music and the composer.
