Battle Royale Orchestra Recording

This is an extra that you can find on the Korean Starmax 2-disc Special Edition of Battle Royale.

It contains selected segments of music performed by the Warsaw Philharmonic Orchestra, conducted by the film's composer, Masamichi Amano.

It includes segments of the following songs from the soundtrack:

1 - Bitter Victory
2 - "Requiem" (Verdi)/ Prologue
3 - Radetsky March (Strauss)
4 - Kawada's Theme
5 - THE THIRD MAN
6 - Air from Orchestral Suite No. 3 in D Major (Bach) *entire song is played

I wanted to share this because I thought it was the most interesting extra on the disc, and watching the conductor and orchestra hopefully give you a better appreciation of the movie's excellent soundtrack, which includes pieces from Verdi, Strauss and Bach. Battle Royale really owes a lot to its soundtrack (and the original novel by Koushun Takami, of course).
