Veröffentlichung Intrada: BOUND FOR GLORY - Leonard Rosenman und THE MOUNTAIN MEN - Michel Legrand

[Marcus Stöhr]

Intrada hat wieder 2 neue CDs veröffentlicht:

BOUND FOR GLORY

Label: Intrada Special Collection Volume 216

Date: 1976

Tracks: 18

Time = 63:35

Cool find for Leonard Rosenman fans! Just in time for Woody Guthrie's 100-year celebration currently underway, Intrada is proud to present world premiere of Rosenman's Oscar-winning score. Rosenman not only adapted famous Guthrie tunes for Hal Ashby film with David Carradine but composed some 20 minutes of his own original orchestral music in signature style. Results brought him an Academy Award in 1976. Composer himself spoke of desire to one day revisit music in miniature symphony form for concert performance but it was not to be. At one point we were simply going to present premiere CD release of wonderful United Artists LP featuring abundance of tuneful depression-era Guthrie material with mere snippets of original score mingled within album tracks. Upon locating actual album masters in MGM vaults we also discovered original 2" 24-track scoring elements long thought lost to the ages. In mint condition, these complete session masters allow us to present Rosenman's superb music complete, with broader musical architecture in mind. Each "movement" becomes a miniature concert suite of its own. Importance of score in composer's career is hard to over-emphasize but our CD also features that original 1976 UA album as well. Flipper cover allows you choice of original album artwork or alternate campaign (which our crew gave preference to.) Leonard Rosenman conducts both his original score plus orchestral adaptations of Guthrie material. David Carradine sings famous lyrics for film and UA album presentation. Intrada Special Collection release available while quantities and interest remains!

MOUNTAIN MEN, THE

Label: Intrada Special Collection Volume 209

Date: 1980

Tracks: 13

Time = 49:41

World premiere release of magnificent Michel Legrand score for tough 1980 western pitting Charlton Heston, Brian Keith against worthy Native American adversaries. Legrand anchors with gorgeous, wide-open main theme, painted in broad strokes with bright major key harmony in abundance. Nice trumpet fanfares judiciously sprinkled within theme is exciting, regal touch. But action is keynote! Composer writes what is most surely his busiest score, replete with incredibly challenging high brass figures, moto-perpetuo rhythms that seldom quit, orchestral fury to burn! Presentation of this most exciting Legrand work became possible only when Sony located mint condition stereo masters amongst various film elements stored within Chace Audio facilities. Great find! Fans of composer will enjoy both his soaring theme melody plus his dynamic action. And - with nod to important piece of film scoring artform now gone - Legrand finishes what he starts, brings entire score to close with powerful coda! No just walking off podium before work is done, no cut-and-paste editorial assembly and happily no unrelated songs... just a magificent orchestral finale actually composed as majestic wrap-up to score. Wow! Michel Legrand conducts. Intrada Special Collection release available while quantities and interest remains!

[TheRealNeo]

Beide so uninteressant oder warum keine Reaktionen?

[Antineutrino]

Keine Ahnung, den Legrand hab ich mir direkt bestellt.

[Gast]

Ich habe den Rosenman sofort bestelt. Habe auch die alte LP. Könnte was drüber schreiben.. Aber: keine Lust, da Rosenman ja eh nur die Minderheit kauft.

[Sebastian Schwittay]

Mich würde er interessieren, Hildegunst. Erzähl mal...

[Gast]

Kusanagi und ich haben vor sechs Jahren einmal was drüber gepostet. Ab hier:

[Mephisto]

Mich interessiert's! Vielen Dank für die tollen Beiträge!

[Osthunter]

Legrands Score ist in meinen Ohren ganz großes Kino: Atemberaubende und treibende Actionthemen, wunderschöne Americanamusik, das ganze toll orchestriert. Eine CD, die ich wohl nie gekauft hätte, wenn ich nicht die Clips gehört hätte. Und selbst die deuten die Großartigkeit des Scores nur an. In der Flut der so genannten Holy Grails gehen solche Schätze, die viel mehr Beachtung verdient hätten, leider komplett unter. Wer orchestrale Actionmusik im Stile Goldsmiths mag, kann hier wohl bedenkenlos zugreifen. Für mich ein absoluter Geheimtipp!

Sehe ich genauso. Fantastische Musik, die heutzutage so im Blockbusterkino nicht mehr möglich wäre.

[Gast Stefan Jania]

Vor ein paar Tagen drüber gestolpert: Rosenmans nette Oscar-Rede zu Bound For Glory ("This is really almost on the borderline of absurdity because I do write original music, too."). War eine schöne Batch von Intrada damals mit diesen beiden Scores, heute schon lange out-of-print.
