Liner Notes
by Patrick Doyle
My entire experience on Nouvelle France was one of great joy. The enthusiasm of Jean Boudin was quite infectious. I was very honoured to be asked to score such an important historical subject. The film and its stunning performances were a great inspiration and I immediately recognised that the movie required a very large score -- and then had to convince Jean and the producers Robert & Ashley Sidaway and Richard Goudreau, to come on board with this thought.
Jean emphasised that this epic film was first and foremost a love story. During our second meeting I was inspired by his direction and collaborative spirit and wrote in his presence the entire “Fall of Quebec” theme. This can happen, but usually only when one is with very open and inspirational collaborators. All of the filmmakers on this project could not have been more cooperative and the artistic conditions at all times were perfect.
I had always wanted to record in Prague, having heard a few of my pieces which had been re-recorded there. I was far from disappointed. Indeed the orchestral playing was stunning. At one point during the sessions, I’m not embarrassed to say that the Czech players made my cry. They have such soul in their playing. I was extremely privileged to have had them play my music. I felt less embarrassed when I turned around during the cue which accompanies Marie-Loup to the gallows to see Jean burst into tears. I was very touched that, after all his hard work, I had captured the spirit of his piece and made his dearest hopes a realisation. I didn’t think that this experience in Prague could have been topped and I returned to London very content, only to discover shortly afterwards that the main theme was to be recorded by none other than the great Celine Dion. I’m sure you’ll agree, her performance is breath-taking and to have her sing this song is a huge honour.
