Original Film Score Music CD
Listen to an example CD track below
Director Pierre Butron asked long-term collaborators Angélique and Jean-Claude Nachon to compose the music for Le Silence De La Mer and they certainly rose to the challenge. Their score is as haunting as the movie itself and it captures the essence of the film, perfectly.
From the Main Theme, through all its variations and other incidental pieces, the Nachons' music is a real treasure of Le Silence De La Mer. Their subtle and beautiful score helps to elevate it from being a simple French TV movie to a true masterpiece that stirs the emotions and leaves a long-lasting impression.
Included on the CD is all the music composed for the film by Angélique and Jean-Claude Nachon. There are 27 tracks, arranged in the order that you hear them play in the film. There is no dialogue, sound effects or other foreground or background noises that you would hear if watching the film. This is the isolated music only.

Le Silence De La Mer is a French made-for-TV re-make of a classic black & white film of the same name from 1949.
Jeanne lives with her grandfather in a large house in France and one of the rooms is requisitioned for Werner von Ebrennac, a German army Captain. Jeanne is a piano teacher, and Werner is also a composer and pianist. Werner has a huge respect for France and its culture and he shows himself to be a deeply caring and compassionate man. Little by little, Jeanne falls in love with him. Le Silence De La Mer is a tragic and moving tale of forbidden love that will stir your heart and leave a lasting impression.
There is so much to love about this re-make of Le Silence De La Mer: the story, the setting, the script, the acting, the directing, the music score... the list goes on. Everything you could possibly want from a great film is in there. Of course, since it is a modern film, it is also colour and 16:9 widescreen.
It is a French-language film but don't let that put you off if you don't speak French. The dialogue in the film is minimal and the film now has English subtitles to make it very easy to follow along. Arguably, the beautiful French language enhances the film. For sure, it certainly won't spoil your enjoyment if you're not a French speaker.
