Intrada Special Collection. トビー・フーパー監督がスティーヴ・レイルズバック主演で描くSFホラー。音楽はヘンリー・マンシーニとマイケル・ケイメンで、マンシーニ版とケイメン版の2種類のサウンドトラックを同時発売。こちらはヘンリー・マンシーニのサウンドトラック完全盤。公開前のポストプロダクションでの編集上の変更により、特にオープニングなど、影響を受ける部分の書き直しができず、同じく尊敬する作曲家マイケル・ケイメンが追加の採譜を担当した。なお、マイケル・ケイメンのスコアは、オーケストラ・セッションの初演を含む別アルバムで聴くことができます。この2枚組CDには、マンシーニの全スコアと、別バージョン、映画中に利用することを意図した無数の短いキューなどを完全収録。ピアノの弦に落としたゴム球、銅鑼の縁にかけたガラスのような弓の効果、その他グロテスクでありながら幽玄なアイデアなど、彼の特徴が出ています。さらにVareseレーベルがリリースした最初のアルバムバージョンもCD2に収録されています。演奏はロンドン交響楽団。全53曲、約148分収録。限定盤。
Complete, riveting Henry Mancini horror score on remastered 2-CD set! Tobe Hooper directs wild space vampire tale, Steve Railsback, Peter Firth, Patrick Stewart, Mathilda May star, Dan O’Bannon co-writes with Don Jakoby from Colin Wilson novel, Cannon Films (now an MGM property) releases in 1985. Leading the memorable components: Legendary Henry Mancini’s ferocious and evocative score! Due a number of post-production editorial changes to film prior to release, Mancini was unable to come back in to rescore affected segments - notably the entire opening - and equally esteemed composer Michael Kamen handled additional scoring duties. This current 2-CD set is all Mancini. Separate album of Michael Kamen’s score, including premiere of his orchestral sessions is also available from Intrada! Joint U.S. and British team working in space encounter immense spaceship hidden within Hailey’s Comet. Inside vessel are bats and humanoids. Brought back to earth, the female alien (Mathilda May) emerges a “space vampire”, draining energy from her prey. Particular focus is on Col. Tom Carlsen (Steve Railsback). His encounters with the female vampire (who memorably plays much of her part nude) ultimately lead to spectacular, and bizarre, climax in London cathedral. Henry Mancini is right in the midst of the action! Launching with incredible 12/8 meter rhythm in lower strings, with dynamic French horn and trumpet lines above, Mancini instantly takes command, runs with the ball. Within his score are moments of haunting beauty, quiet mystery, but aggressive climaxes are always nearby. Ultimately, Mancini reaches finale after much spectacular orchestral fireworks, coming to an incredible finish in what might be his most powerful fortissimo - and bravura - ending of his celebrated career. The orchestra crescendoes, strings and woodwinds swirl, brass and percussion pound with massive chords… wow! And in an equally magnificent moment of musical excitement, Mancini then jumps into his 12/8 meter action rhythm to launch “The Lifeforce Theme (End Title)”, bringing this final riveting piece to an unyielding rhythmic coda. Take that, space vampires! 2-CD set includes entire Mancini score plus a few alternates, courtesy MGM, including his “stingers” and myriad brief cues intended for the film makers to utilize throughout the film as musical punctuation. These include his signature rubber balls dropped on piano strings, glassy bowing effects on the edges of gongs, other ideas both grotesque, ethereal. Original Varese label CD program also appears on CD 2. Tim Greiving provides informative booklet notes, Kay Marshall designs exciting package. Eric Tomlinson engineers at EMI Abbey Road Studios in December 1984, Henry Mancini composes, conducts the London Symphony Orchestra. Intrada Special Collection 2-CD set available while quantities and interest remain!
