To coincide with the new 2CD limited edition release of John Williams' award winning score for Empire of the Sun, I speak with the producer and scholar of this very special movie and music. Mike Matessino has been involved with many high profile soundtrack releases, and this release is no exception. We discuss the movie and music in detail, with numerous cue commentaries and Mike reveals the unique scoring and spotting approach that Spielberg and Williams took.
The CD is available from www.lalalandrecords.com and you can read more about Mike's work and biography at www.mikematessino.com
