An extraordinarily talented family! Who can forget Carmine Coppola’s beautiful score he wrote and conducted for Abel Gance’s “Napoleon” which caused such a sensation when it was shown at Radio City Music Hall. I was in the audience when Ed Koch called the elderly Gance in Paris so he could listen to our cheers!
I believe Anton conducted the orchestra for our operas in Asbury Park, New Jersey in the late 90s and early 2000s.
I seem to always be around for the Coppola family!
I wonder how many people realize that Nicolas Cage is a Coppola?
On your recommendation I’ve just ordered the CD of the soundtrack.
