Quartet Records, in collaboration with Capitol Records and Universal Music Entertainment, present a 2-CD set with a revised, remastered, slightly expanded edition of scores for two landmark made-for-television filmscomposed by John Williams (STAR WARS, E.T., JURASSIC PARK, HOOK) between 1968 and 1970.
Both of these adaptations of classic stories were presented by Omnibus Productions and directed by Delbert Mann, and both also earned EmmyR Awards for John Williams’ original music. Through these scores, the composer shaped the destinies of two classic literary characters as well as his own.
Every effort was made to locate surviving audio elements for both HEIDI and JANE EYRE. The discovery of the original ?″ four-track masters from HEIDI containing all of the cues selected for the 1968 narrated story album facilitated an attentive new mix of the music and a presentation in narrative order. The narration record was newly transferred by Universal Music Group and is presented after the musical score.
For JANE EYRE, a new high-resolution transfer of the 1971 ?″ stereo album master was provided by Universal Music Group, with audio then fully restored. This is followed by four tracks of additional material, including a short segment of source music that is heard in the film but was not on the album. The other three tracks are alternate performances of three selections recorded for the album, “To Thornfield,” “Restoration” and the “Love Theme.” This material was sourced from two ?″ 3-track tapes that were discovered at Twentieth Century Fox in early 2019. While no additional score cues could be located, the recovery of any new material from this enduring and highly regarded John Williams work is most welcome.
The entire collection has been painstakingly remixed, restored, assembled and mastered by Mike Matessino, preserving all the freshness of the original recording. The package includes a 28-page full-color booklet with in-depth liner notes by film music writer John Takis and classy art direction by Jim Titus. Limited edition: 2500 units
QUARTET RECORDSは、キャピトル・レコードおよびユニバーサル・ミュージック・エンターテインメントと共同で、1968年から1970年にかけてジョン・ウィリアムズ(『スター・ウォーズ』、『E.T.』、『ジュラシック・パーク』、『フック』)が作曲した2つの画期的なテレビ映画のスコアを、改訂、リマスター、若干の増補盤として2枚組CDに収録。
トラックリスト古典的な物語を映画化したこれらの作品は、いずれもオムニバス・プロダクションが製作し、デルバート・マンが監督した。これらの音楽を通して、作曲家は2人の古典的な文学の登場人物の運命を、そして彼自身の運命をも形作ったのである。
『アルプスの少女ハイジ』と『ジェーン・エア』のために、現存する音源を見つけるためにあらゆる努力が払われた。1968年のナレーション・アルバム用に選ばれたすべてのキューを含む、HEIDIのオリジナル?″4トラック・マスターが発見されたことで、音楽を注意深く新たにミックスし、ナレーション順に並べることが容易になった。ナレーション録音はユニバーサル・ミュージック・グループによって新たにトランスファーされ、スコアの後に収録されている。
『ジェーン・エア』については、1971年の1/4″ステレオ・アルバム・マスターの新しいハイレゾ・トランスファーがユニバーサル ミュージック グループから提供され、オーディオは完全に復元された。これに続いて、映画では聴かれるがアルバムには収録されていない短い音源を含む4トラックの追加音源が収録されている。他の3トラックは、アルバムのために録音された3つのセレクション、"To Thornfield"、"Restoration"、"Love Theme "の代替演奏である。この音源は、2019年初めに20世紀フォックスで発見された2本の?″3トラックテープから入手。追加のスコア・キューは見つからなかったが、この不朽の名作であり、高く評価されているジョン・ウィリアムズ作品から新たな素材が発見されることは大歓迎である。
全コレクションは、マイク・マテッシーノによって丹念にリミックス、修復、アセンブル、マスタリングされ、オリジナル録音の新鮮さをすべて保っている。パッケージには、映画音楽ライター、ジョン・タキスによる詳細なライナーノーツとジム・タイタスによる上品なアートディレクションが掲載された28ページのフルカラーブックレットが封入。
限定2500枚。
