Libertador, Gustavo Dudamel's first soundtrack, and first composition to be released worldwide! The Simón Bolívar Symphony Orchestra and guests from the world of Venezuelan folk music lend the score a distinctive and irresistible Latin American flavour.

The film is told from the viewpoint of Simón Bolívar, the legendary Venezuelan military and political leader who helped secure independence from the Spanish empire. Directed by Alberto Arvelo, Libertador is billed as the largest independent film production ever to come out of South America.

Dudamel, who consulted with filmscore master John Williams in the preparations for this assignment, describes his soundtrack as “atmospheric, post-Mahlerian music, full of tension, hope and struggle.”
