Garbo: The Spy (Fernando Velázquez)

Original score from the 2009 history feature film directed by Edmon Roch, starring Rupert Allason, José Antonio Escoriza and Aline Griffith.

THE STORY: A compelling account of Juan Pujol, an extraordinary Spanish double agent during WWII who helped change the course of history.

THE SCORE: Acclaimed composer Fernando Velázquez’ score for Edmon Roch’s exciting documentary about “The Man Who Saved the World” – counterspy Joan Pujol, also known as Garbo – is a beautifully engaging chamber jazz score which is built around an infectious main theme. Velázquez builds his variations around this theme with a small jazz combo and a small chamber orchestra, resulting in a score that is as quirky and unique as the film’s main character himself. The album also features a couple of songs by RiP and also Velazquez’s own song ‘Mars in Ball” with the composer himself on vocals.
