If only Corey Glover (who played in Platoon and is also the singer Of Living Colour) had the opportunity to do a song with this soundtrack, this could have been a bit like David Sylvian & Ryûichi Sakamoto's "Forbidden Colors" in the movie "Merry Christmas Mr. Lawrence"... if only.
Delerue was born in Roubaix. His career was diverse and he composed frequently for major art house directors, most often François Truffaut (including Jules and Jim), but also for Jean-Luc Godard's film Contempt (Le Mépris), and for Alain Resnais, Louis Malle, and Bernardo Bertolucci, besides working on several Hollywood productions like Oliver Stone's Platoon and Salvador.
He composed the music for Flemming Flindt's ballet, Enetime (The Lesson), based on Ionesco's play, La Leçon.

Georges Delerue did NOT compose this piece of music. Samuel Barber is the composer. Adagio for strings composed in 1938.
