1988, a great film by Martin Scorsese is released, "The Last Temptation of Christ" with extraordinary music composed by Peter Gabriel, narrating the complete life of Christ, his struggle between flesh and spirit where the soul is the battlefield of these two immortal truths, for this reason, the film was censored by the Vatican.
2004, an equally great Film by Mel Gibson is released, "The Passion of The Christ", which instead describes the last 12 hours of Christ's life, from the Garden of Olives to the resurrection.
The images and soundtrack composed by John Debney perfectly describe the human pain where the ability to do something is vain, except for that fragile attempt to extend a hand in a sign of devotion and respect for "the sacrifice of the Messiah" with the hope of grasping the impossible and the unattainable. The symbolism of the flogging and crucifixion are strongly raw for the necessity of making people understand the perpetual pain and evoke contemporary massacres and torture, very original passages both in the film and in the soundtrack, are the use of original languages (Aramaic, Hebrew, and Latin), truthful are the passages of the images, like that of the embarrassment of the choice of Pontius Pilate, who washes his hands of it, the faces of the executioners, stained with the innocent blood of a Man who sacrificed himself for men, and the evil, the demon that silently roams, walks and tempts every soul it meets, with distressing appearances, but in the end, will not be able to have the soul of Christ.
Excellent and imposing the soundtrack, the orchestral part is majestic and infinite, meticulously describing the delicate and controversial theme, there are electronic instruments and typically traditional percussion, condensed into a symphonic-choral explanation, voices sung in Aramaic characterized by territorial blends, the range of tones and volume are increasing in a waterproofing of sound enrichment and a personally sentimental convulsion, fifteen glorifying tracks.
"The Olive Garden" the fog, the silence, and the putrid evil spies on the Man -"Bearing The Cross" harps, violins, flutes, and contemplative hymns - "Jesus Arrested" Middle Eastern vocal imprints, someone betrayed and the instruments begin to surround the Messiah while the demon smiles satisfied - "Peter Denies Jesus" kneeling, looking up to God and asking for forgiveness, because they do not know what they do -"The Stoning" there is full participation of Gingger and the Indian Shankar, who was also a great performer for Peter Gabriel in "The Last Temptation of Christ" - "Song Of Complaint" the darkness of contemplation, full of ethnic-oriental density - "Simon is Dismissed" drums and ethnic instruments, frantic and indissoluble bells - "Flagellation-Dark Choir-Disciples " a moving Western instrumental melody, soft and painful voices, the violins, harp, and flutes accompany the prayer of a body now lying exhausted on the ground but infinitely conscious and at peace with God -"Mary Goes to Jesus" we have a profound, painful Gregorian-style chant, accompanied by heart-breaking violins and cellos - "Peaceful But Primitive-Procession" a thousand gazes penetrate a single gaze -"Crucifixion" an emotional track with drums that free the Man from his pains and the pains of those who do not know a truce, accompanying him, with a beat of wings, to the freedom of sinners - "Raising The Cross" repentance -"It Is Done" a mother of admirable stasis -"Jesus Is Carried Down" all is accomplished, all is announced -"Resurrection" Fiat Lux and there was light.
It may seem an excessively dramatic soundtrack, but it is how it should be, the mirror of the theme, the sacrifice, the pain, the human misunderstandings that perpetually bring hate, war, and death.
