The Spiritual Conquest of Music.......2002-10-02

THE OTHER CONQUEST (LA OTRA CONQUISTA)

Music, as a universal language, elevates a film to a unique dimension intimately related to the audience's emotional response. It is not a coincidence that the most memorable scenes in films tend to feature expressive, hypnotic, revealing music... or silence pregnant with the absence of music.

In creating the soundtrack for The Other Conquest, we were fortunate enough to work with two exceptional Mexican composers - Samuel Zyman (symphonic music) and Jorge Reyes (ethnic music) - whose styles are quite different from one another, but who share the artistic qualities, refined sensibility and evocative power that make their music so memorable. Beyond merely shading or underscoring various dramatic situations or specific images, the music is able to tell the story on its own. As a point of departure, I first added music to the film by using existing works, which helped define the structure and dramatic intention of the score. For instance, the "final journeys" of Friar Diego and Topiltzin, at the beginning and end of the film respectively, are inspired by the first measures of J.S. Bach's Passion According to St John, to the extent that the camera movements in both scenes stem from the music. Then I asked Samuel Zyman to compose a contemporary classical version that became Passion According to Topiltzin, the central theme of the film, which marks the beginning of the Spaniards' attempt to convert Topiltzin spiritually. With the exception of Bach's Passions, Zyman and Reyes replaced the provisional works (much like the Aztec gods that were destroyed to make way for the new icons of Christianity), so that at times one feels the timeless spirits of Mozart, Chávez, Fauré, Penderecki, Bach himself and other composers underlying the original music. In the New World, imposing cathedrals were built from the stones of pyramids.

More than illustrating the 16th century, the music of this film tries to express the cyclical nature of history by reflecting artistic quests common to civilizations that have undergone - and are still coming to terms with - processes of colonization, conquest, and attempted spiritual conversions. In the soundtrack as in the film itself, the premise was to represent two aesthetic languages and two contrasting ways of looking at the world, as is the case with the Spanish and Nahuatl languages, in such a way that both artistic voices would be able to surprise and move us profoundly through the universal language of music. To attain this, music supervisor Andrea Sanderson worked closely with both composers (who never shared the same physical space) to create the film's own musical language. As the story of The Other Conquest unfolds, the respective music of Zyman and Reyes merge to become a powerful hybrid that combines symphonic and ethnic elements, including beautiful solo and orchestral passages, sacred choruses, corporal rhythms, primeval vocalizations, original pre-Hispanic instruments (some of them, archaeological gems in themselves) and the discreet use of synthesizers. Thus, a new voice is born, one which is much more than the simple juxtaposition of both - which is precisely what happened with mestizaje and the birth of the Mexican nation.

With characteristic mastery and interpretive beauty, Plácido Domingo adds the crowning touch by singing the aria "Mater Aeterna", which functions as a kind of coda to the film by celebrating the syncretic fusion of the Mother Goddess Tonantzin and the Virgin Mary into one of the principal symbols of Mexican identity: the indigenous Virgin of Guadalupe.

For producer Alvaro Domingo and for myself as the writer-director of The Other Conquest, it has been an invaluable experience and a source of immense satisfaction to have undertaken the musical adventure contained in this compact disc, where the extraordinary talents of Plácido Domingo, Samuel Zyman, Jorge Reyes, Andrea Sanderson, and the Academy of St Martin in the Fields under the masterful direction of David Snell, have all joined together with a shared artistic goal: to take us on an unforgettable journey that rewards the listener both aesthetically and spiritually. I believe that the music of The Other Conquest represents that fragile, unknown bridge that Topiltzin and Friar Diego dared to cross, at the end of which there may be a ray of light that reveals that, in spite of everything, what unites us as humans is greater than what separates us.

Birth of the Mexican Nation.......2001-02-14

For a complete and thorough analysis of the music refer to the eloquent explanation by one of the composers, as noted above by Samuel Zyman. That is what hooked me into buying this CD, as I had not seen the movie only read his notes. This CD is haunting and oh, so ever enchanting, as it transpotrs the listener to other worlds and realms. The introduction is the the perfect setting to your trip into the world of the Mecixa(Aztecs) and the their inevitable meeting with the Europeans. The opening is erie and even without seeing the movie, the images imagined are primitive and one can visualize pyramids on the landscape and the approaching Spaniards with the introduction of classical sounding orchestral European music. As noted by the composer if one has not seen the movie it transports the listner and one visualizes from one's own perspective since there is no memory of the movie to rely on. It is really very beautiful and great music to listen to during quite periods or for walks in the woods, you might just see a jaguar peering at you or a Mexica warrior lurking somewhere. The songs that are religious themed are so wonderful, it is as though the heavens are opening up and the glory is there for you to behold. With song titles like "A Sprit without a body", I think you get the idea that the music is transcendental. The mixing of classical music and indigenious sounding instruments and noises is genius, the perfect blending of music for the movie. Since the meeting of the cultures was less than peaceful the music rises to crescendos at times signifying conclict and rescinding as a way of showing some type of resolution. I hope to find this movie and have further understanding of what can only be described as music that fuses and reflects the merging of cultures to create the modern mestizo. This is music from the past brought into contemporary standards, a musical journey into world of the Mexica and the Spanish conquistadors. The colorful booklet is informative with it's four paneled presentation that explains quite a bit about the movie. The CD close out with a beautiful number by the executive producer, Placido Domingo, who teamed up with the young Mexican film maker Salvador Carrasco to crate this movie. The song is a moving piece entitled "Mater Aeterna" which pays tribute to the fusion of the the Mother Goddess Tonantzin and the Virgin Mary to create the the modern Virgin de Guadalupe. Classical purists may scoff at this blending of musical traditions but it is a wonderful reflection of the convergence of humanity to creatre something new. Now if I can only find the movie.

A blend of tribal and classical.......2000-07-05

The music soundtrack for The Other Conquest begins with low tribal chanting and a lone flute giving an other world introduction. This feeling continues as the next few tracks include more drums, percussion, voices, etc. Then a short and drastic switch is made: a harpsichord and a more Western feel followed by more of the tribal sounds. Throughout the remaining tracks, these two themes are tossed back and forth.

The soundtrack is composed by two men: Jorge Reyes writing the "native" pieces and Samuel Zyman writing for more traditional Western pieces. It is a unique sound to a soundtrack with the occasional blending of the two themes. Reyes's work evokes a great mood for the Aztecs (a sound I've rarely heard) while Zyman's music is really inspiring. His twisting of Bach's Passion is worth the price of the CD. Yet Zyman does not stay with a 16th-century feel as other pieces are more "modern" classical.

Note that this is a soundtrack, so much of the music is background and used to present moods. In order to fully enjoy this CD, you must like more "international" and ethnic music as well as traditional Western classical. So if you're looking for some good soundtrack music that's a little different, this CD is for you.
