No-Do (The Beckoning) (Alfons Conde)
Original score from the 2009 horror mystery feature film directed by Elio Quiroga, starring Ana Torrent, Francisco Boira and Héctor Colomé.
THE STORY: Francesca, a young pediatrician, and her husband Pedro, move to their new country house trying to forget a tragic event that has marked their lives.
THE SCORE: Alfons Conde, who wrote the acclaimed scores for The Abandoned and The Dark Hour, is back with a new lagre orchestral horror score for director Elio Quiroga (The Dark Hour). No-Do, which will be marketed under the title The Beckoning in the US, is a ghost thriller taking place in a haunted house – and Conde’s music is just as chillingly eerie and musically inventive as you would expect after hearing his two previous scores! The Bulgarian Symphony Orchestra is augmented by the choir Kup Taldea and many of the score’s most exciting moments are the ones where the vocal writing takes the lead (the eerie solo in the ‘Main Title’ and the ominous a cappella writing in ‘The New House’ are just two of many examples!). As showcased by the Alfons Conde scores MovieScore Media has released, this is a composer who is in full command of the orchestra and the score for No-Do demonstrates again his ability to write music that is constantly interesting, highly emotional – and challenging! Our release of the score co-incides with the Spanish theatrical release of the film.
