Craig Armstrong - Angelina
Angelina appeared on Piano Works - the third album of Craig Armstrong, containing solo piano pieces from different soundtracks played by himself.
*Accompanying his album Film Works, Piano Works (2004, Sanctuary Music / Universal) is a more personal endeavour, seeing Craig Armstrong return to the simplicity of the piano to create stripped-down versions of themes for films such as the BAFTA award-winning Moulin Rouge!
Also included are new works, where Armstrong brings in Berlin electronic artist AGF to elicit a sound that rests firmly in the modern age. Armstrong says of the album: ‘The piano has always been a very personal form of musical expression for me. It was important for me to involve an electronic element within the album to place the record in the 21st century, not as a reverie in the past but a piece of work that looks forward.’
Craig Armstrong, OBE (b. 1959)is a Scottish composer of modern orchestral music, electronica and film scores. He graduated from the Royal Academy of Music in 1981, and has since written music for the Royal Shakespeare Company, the Royal Scottish National Orchestra and the London Sinfonietta.
Armstrong's score for Baz Luhrmann's Romeo + Juliet earned him a BAFTA for Achievement in Film Music and an Ivor Novello. He would collaborate with Luhrmann again on his next two films, Moulin Rouge! and The Great Gatsby. His score for the former earned him the 2001 American Film Institute's composer of the Year award, a Golden Globe Award for Best Original Score and a BAFTA. Armstrong was awarded a Grammy Award for Best Original Score in 2004 for the biopic Ray. His other feature film scoring credits include Love Actually, Oliver Stone's World Trade Center, Elizabeth: The Golden Age and The Incredible Hulk.
