ANDREY DERGATCHEV
The Return OST
CD
The soundtrack to Andrey Zvyagintsev's 2003 film 'The Return' (winner of the Venice Film Festival's Golden Lion award) is a genuinely haunting and evocative piece which suits the encroaching shuffle of autumn perfectly. Composed and collated by Andrey Dergatchev, 'The Return' draws on a number of sources and influences in order to achieve its chastened and sober sound. With obvious debts payed to William Basinski and the John's Cage and Zorn, Dergatchev weaves a sequestered accompaniment that can more than be enjoyed in autonomy from the silver screen. At times nothing more than field recordings overlaid by the actors' Russian dialogue ('Shorty') or dusty piano draped across a shimmering back drop ('The Road'), Dergatchev is a master at allowing music to unfurl in the most gradual of fashions imaginable; the almost choral vocals and tundra soundscapes of 'In The Bedroom' being a perfect example. Dusted in pathos throughout, 'The Return' (accompanied by a photo-laden booklet) is a stunning piece of work that engages on multiple levels, the most obvious of which being its heart wrenching and profound beauty.
