Larry Marotta’s second collection of Avant-Garde and Experimental Cinema Silent Film Soundtracks for Pimalia has been released.  Volume Two features more of Larry’s thoughtful, unpretentious, expressive - and sometimes even controversial - guitar excursions, this time based around the following films commissioned for the Kino DVD series.

Both volumes are available now at Amazon, iTunes. and wherever fine downloads are sold.

Larry Marotta has just been commisioned to compose another film score for Kino DVD’s Avant-Garde and Experimental Silent Film series.  Larry will be scoring Rien Que Les Heures, directed by Alberto Cavalcanti in 1926. It is a 45-minute single feature.

Pimalia is currently working with Larry in producing Volume Two in his Silent Film Soundtrack collection, due out late Summer 2009.  More details on both of these projects as we get them.
