  3. Kritzerland präsentiert: Johnny Mandels THE SAILOR WHO FELL FROM GRACE WITH THE SEA

    in Scores & Veröffentlichungen

    Geschrieben

    Kritzerland is proud to present the world premiere CD release of:

     

    THE SAILOR WHO FELL FROM GRACE WITH THE SEA

    [Der Weg allen Fleisches]

    Music Composed and Conducted by Johnny Mandel

     

    Yukio Mishima’s novel, The Sailor Who Fell from Grace With the Sea, was published in 1963 and translated into English in 1965. A decade later, screenwriter Lewis John Carlino (Seconds, The Brotherhood, The Mechanic, among others) adapted the novel for the screen and also made his directing debut. Moving the setting to Dartmouth, Devon, Carlino got the wonderful cameraman Douglas Slocombe to photograph, and cast Sarah Miles and Kris Kristofferson in the leads. The film features wonderful performances, gorgeous photography, and is haunting and disturbing.

    Adding immeasurably to the atmosphere (and there is a lot of atmosphere) is the film’s musical score by Johnny Mandel (here billed as John). Mandel’s score is simply wonderful, and his setting of Kristofferson’s tune “Sea Dream” is ravishingly beautiful. From the simple opening cues, to the lush cues underscoring the romantic scenes, Mandel conveys all the moods of the characters and the story perfectly. It’s a short score, but it does exactly what it needs to do in the time it needs to do it.

    Mandel was and is a world-class arranger and orchestrator, working with such legends as Tony Bennett, Quincy Jones, and Natalie Cole. His music has been interpreted by many great jazz musicians and several Mandel-penned movie themes became well-known songs – “Emily,” “The Shadow of Your Smile,” “A Time for Love” (Oscar-nominated), and “Close Enough for Love.”

    The Sailor Who Fell from Grace With the Sea is limited to 1000 copies only and is priced at $19.98, plus shipping.

    CDs will ship by the second week of May, but we’ve actually been averaging three to five weeks early in terms of shipping ahead of the official ship date.

    Die Götter haben normalerweise keine Menschengestalt ;) ...

     

    Willst Du damit sagen, dass ich keine Menschengestalt habe? Selbstverständlich haben die Gottheiten in den Mythologien Menschengestalten, aber sie altern nicht! :)

    Csongor, Danke für Deine Infos!

     

    Die Kritiker haben eins nicht bedacht: Es gibt Buchautoren, auch in Deutschland wie Erdoğan Ercivan [https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Erdo%C4%9Fan_Ercivan] oder Andreas von Rétyi die der Meinung sind, dass es sich bei der ägyptischen Mythologie um reale Begebenheiten in Verbindung mit interstellaren Kämpfen handelt. Daraus kann man die Frage folgern, welche Hautfarbe haben Götter?  ;)

     

    Lassen wir uns einfach überraschen. :)

  17. Kritzerland präsentiert: SUN VALLEY SERENADE and ORCHESTRA WIVES

    in Scores & Veröffentlichungen

    Geschrieben

    Kritzerland is proud to present the world premiere release of the complete soundtracks to two classic Twentieth Century Fox movies on a great 2-CD set:

     

    SUN VALLEY SERENADE and ORCHESTRA WIVES

     

    Musical Direction by Alfred Newman and Emil Newman
    Featuring The Glenn Miller Orchestra
    Songs by Harry Warren and Mack Gordon

     

     

    It’s funny how music can define an entire era, and Glenn Miller’s unique sound did just that.  It was no surprise when Twentieth Century Fox snapped up Miller and his band for the movies. He only did two but they were perfect vehicles. They were cleverly built around him, and he was surrounded by excellent actors, singers, and dancers. The stories were simple, they didn’t overstay their welcome, and the music was superb.

    Sun Valley Serenade (1941), featured Norwegian figure skater Sonja Henie, John Payne, Milton Berle, Lynn Bari, Joan Davis, Dorothy Dandridge, the amazing The Nicholas Brothers, and, of course, Glenn Miller and his orchestra, along with The Modernaires.
    In addition to some Miller classics (“Moonlight Serenade,” “In the Mood”), the movie also featured a few great songs by Harry Warren and Mack Gordon, including a song that would become one of Miller’s biggest hits, “Chattanooga Choo Choo,” which, in the film, is a spectacular production number with Dandridge and The Nicholas Brothers. Another great new song, “At Last,” was also recorded for the film, but wasn’t used, except as background music for several scenes. The song itself would end up in the next Miller film, because Sun Valley Serenade proved to be so popular, that Fox immediately put another Glenn Miller vehicle before the camera, this one entitled Orchestra Wives.

    Orchestra Wives was a bit more serious than the light and airy Sun Valley Serenade. This time the cast included George Montgomery, Ann Rutherford, Lynn Bari, Cesar Romero, Marion Hutton (sister of Betty), The Modernaires, and, of course, The Nicholas Brothers. We also get some wonderful Harry Warren and Mack Gordon songs, including “At Last” (the castoff from Sun Valley Serenade), “Serenade in Blue,” “People Like You and Me,” and the instant classic, “I’ve Got a Gal in Kalamazoo.”  The latter was, like “Chattanooga Choo Choo,” nominated for an Oscar for Best Song.

    This is the first time Sun Valley Serenade and Orchestra Wives are being released complete, each CD close to eighty minutes in length.  Previous LP and CD releases didn’t have particularly good sound, but for this release the sound has been lovingly restored by Mike Matessino from the Fox vault elements – it’s safe to say, you’ve never heard these scores sounding like this.   It should be noted that while the films were given a synthesized stereo treatment in the early 1990s for home video, all of the original music elements are, in fact, mono.  Yet they remain as clear and vibrant as the day they were recorded. All the songs, the incidental scoring, and some amazing bonus material is all here.  While some of the bonus material had made it onto CD, it was taken directly from the films themselves and sounded horrible.  And there are quite a few never-before-released tracks.  

    Sun Valley Serenade/Orchestra Wives is limited to 1000 copies only and is priced at $29.98, plus shipping.
    CDs will ship by the first week of May, but we’ve actually been averaging three to five weeks early in terms of shipping ahead of the official ship date.
