Description
No stranger to scoring tension-filled films, composer James Newton
Howard ( The Village, Batman Begins, King Kong) created urgent and
entrancing pieces for director Edward Zwick's 2006 African-set
thriller, Blood Diamond. Enlisting renowned soloists such as singer
Youssou N'Dour and duduk player Djivan Gasparyan, Howard also fills
out his dense orchestral songs with performances by the Senegal
Drum Ensemble, resulting in a beautiful yet often startling work.
