Music Composed by Georges Delerue

A Delerue classic comes to CD for the first time. Previously, only portions of the score had been included on a Varèse Sarabande collection of the composer’s works.

The Robert DeNiro / Robert Duvall film True Confessions inspired from Delerue one of his most hauntingly beautiful and spiritual works.

In True Confessions, Delerue is often called upon to musically detail the silent, brooding faces of DeNiro and Duvall as they contemplate their intertwined fates. It was in such introspective cinematic moments that Delerue felt he reached his highest calling: "Interior states, the spiritual -- that's what I really like to do. At some point, when you can't say anything more with words or even with images, it's the role of the music to intervene."

Delerue eschewed the bombastic, wall-to-wall musical sensibility typical of big studio releases, hewing instead to the personal hallmarks that had made his career: a delicate, deceptively effortless lyricism, often fueled by impressionistic arrangements for strings and woodwinds. The score's liturgical choral touches may echo the film's setting and themes, but they also underscore the adjective most often used to describe the elusive character of the composer's music: mystical.

True Confessions is an absolutely indispensable Delerue score and ranks with the composer’s finest opuses.
