Soundtracks

LUMINA Tetralogy 

Original comic book soundtrack

Lumina is a sci-fi/fantasy comic book series with Original Soundtrack, divided into four volumes written and drawn by Emanuele Tenderini and Linda Cavallini, published by Tatailab. 

The Lumina saga tells the epic adventure of Kite and Miriam, two siblings who will have adventures delving into a universe of ancient cultures and peoples on the planet Lumina.

Facing challenges and uncovering secrets, their story weaves together themes of ecology and family ties on a journey that will change their destiny and that of the world.

Each volume of Lumina is associated with an entire Soundtrack that comments, describes and musically expands scene after scene on the journey of the two protagonists with listening references within the page.  The result is a grand sonic fresco divided into four Volumes with nearly two hours of music rich in thematic interweaving and kaleidoscopic atmospheres.

The symphonic breath (created in collaboration with Fame's Symphony Orchestra in Macedonia) relentlessly blends an electronic dimension bringing the reading experience to a new level of involvement.

All music was composed, orchestrated and produced by Remo Baldi.

A self-contained volume of 96 pages total, it chronicles one little girl's struggle for survival at a time when the planet is now at an end, torn apart by a threat that has brought it close to its end. Hope has given way to resignation, and strength is no longer enough even to live day to day.

Is there still anything in this world worth fighting for?
