‘The Pillars of the Earth’ tells the story about the construction of a cathedral in 12th century England – an almost impossible undertaking in a time of war and great despair. Conspiracies and political intrigue endanger the lives of Aliena the noblewoman, Jack the outlaw-turned-mason, Philip the monk and their hometown of Kingsbridge. Will faith and love prevail in the face of violent attacks, ruthless kings and greedy bishops?
The soundtrack, composed by Tilo Alpermann, reflects these themes: darkness and violence, longing and loss, faith and passion. Tilo Alpermann’s composition wonderfully orchestrated by the FilmHarmonic Orchestra in Prague is a piece of art retelling the story of 'The Pillars of the Earth' without words and visuals. A wonderful achievement.
