2-CD set. Remastered and expanded edition. 16-page CD booklet with liner notes by Christian Lauliac. Limited 20th Anniversary Edition of 500 units.
In collaboration with SND, Music Box Records proudly presents the remastered and expanded edition of Debbie Wiseman's score to the 2004 adventure crime film Arsene Lupin.
The film, based on the popular series of crime novels created by Maurice Leblanc, follows the adventures of Arsene Lupin, an aristocratic Belle Epoque gentleman robber who preys on the rich and is kind to the poor. Fate teams him up with the beautiful and mysterious Countess of Cagliostro who is involved in a devious plot to recover the treasure of the Kings of France. The film is directed by Jean-Paul Salome (Belphegor: Phantom of the Louvre) and stars Romain Duris, Kristin Scott Thomas, Pascal Greggory and Eva Green.
Celebrating the film's 20th anniversary, this new expanded edition finally allows listeners to fully appreciate the variety of Debbie Wiseman’s inspiration (with its delicious mix of action, romance, period drama and light comedy), from the evocation of the historical era the story is set in with waltzes, polkas and ragtime that she composed herself to the spectacular aspects of the plot with its multiple chases and twists and turns that are almost continuously accompanied with music. The magnificient and powerful score is performed by the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra and the Crouch End Festival Chorus, with special emphasis on an enlarged brass section, large-scale percussion, and solo performances of both a cimbalom and a glass harmonica. By its magnitude and thematic richness, Debbie Wiseman’s score for Arsene Lupin (Winner of Best Score for a Foreign Language Film and nominated for Score of the Year, Movie Music UK Awards, 2005) can retrospectively be considered as one of the last jewels of a symphonic tradition once prized by blockbusters.
Supervised by Debbie Wiseman, the program has been assembled and produced by musical supervisor Edouard Dubois. This present edition has been fully remastered from complete scoring session elements and features many previously unreleased tracks. The package includes a 16-page booklet featuring exclusive liner notes by writer Christian Lauliac and new comments by Debbie Wiseman, Jean-Paul Salome, editor Marie-Pierre Renaud and Edouard Dubois. The release is limited to 500 units.

モーリス・ルブラン原作のルパン・シリーズ生誕100周年を記念して製作されたアドベンチャー・ロマン。『カリオストロ伯爵夫人』をベースに、原作シリーズの名場面を随所にちりばめ、若き怪盗紳士アルセーヌ・ルパンの活躍を大胆かつ華麗に描く。
トラックリストデビー・ワイズマンが作曲したワルツ、ポルカ、ラグタイムによる物語の舞台となる歴史的時代の描写から、ほとんど絶え間なく続く音楽とともに展開される幾重もの追跡劇や紆余曲折あるストーリー、スペクタクルな局面まで、（アクション、ロマンス、時代劇、軽妙なコメディが絶妙にミックスされている）デビー・ワイズマンの多彩なインスピレーションを存分に味わうことができる。この壮大で力強いスコアは、ロイヤル・フィルハーモニー管弦楽団とクラウチ・エンド・フェスティバル・コ－ラスによって演奏され、特に金管セクションの拡大、大規模な打楽器、シンバルとグラスハーモニカのソロ演奏に重点が置かれている。デビー・ワイズマンの『ルパン』（2005年、英国映画音楽賞外国語映画部門最優秀作曲賞受賞、年間最優秀作曲賞ノミネート）は、そのスケールの大きさとテーマの豊かさによって、かつて大作映画で珍重されたシンフォニックの伝統の最後の宝石のひとつと見なすことができるだろう。
デビー・ワイズマンが監修し、音楽監修者エドゥアール・デュボアがプログラムを構成・制作した。今回のエディションは、完全なスコアリング・セッション音源から完全リマスタリングされ、未発表曲を多数収録しています。パッケージには、ライターのクリスチャン・ローリアックによる独占ライナーノーツと、デビー・ワイズマン、ジャン＝ポール・サロメ、編集者のマリー＝ピエール・ルノー、エドゥアール・デュボワによる新コメントを掲載した16ページのブックレットが付属。500枚限定盤。
1884年、叔父スービーズ公爵の屋敷に暮らす少年アルセーヌ。ある日、彼は泥棒である父の指図で、公爵夫人が所有するマリー・アントワネットの首飾りを盗み出し、父に手渡す。だが、逃げおおせたはずの父は翌朝死体となって発見され、アルセーヌと母は館を追い出されてしまう。やがて、20歳となり怪盗として活躍するアルセーヌは、公爵夫人の娘で従妹のクラリスと相思相愛の仲になっていた。そんなある日、彼は王家の財宝を狙う名士たちに捕らわれていたカリオストロ伯爵夫人を救出し、たちまち恋に落ちるのだが…。主演は「スパニッシュ・アパートメント」のロマン・デュリス。監督は「ルーヴルの怪人」のジャン＝ポール・サロメ。2004年フランス／イタリア／スペイン／イギリス。
