Product Description

Album Details

CD debut of David Shire's score to director Joseph Sargent's 1974 crime thriller starring Robert Shaw, Walter Matthau, Martin Balsam, Hector Elizondo and Earl Hindman. The premise of the bad guys in the film naming themselves after colors was an influence


Album Description

The Taking of Pelham One Two Three is a superb urban thriller: four men, dressed alike in trenchcoats and calling each other Mr. Blue, Mr. Green, etc., take a subway car hostage and demand $1 million in ransom. Walter Matthau stars as the transit cop assigned to the case; Robert Shaw is the leader of the terrorists. It's a brilliant '70s hostage movie with biting New York humor. For the score, David Shire came up with a stroke of genius. He wanted to do some kind of funk/jazz/big band, but wanted a way of making it dissonant and powerful -- not too light, but not too random. So for his melodic materials he utilized the 12-tone method of composition, a technique devised by Arnold Schoenberg in the early 20th century in which you make a theme by using all 12 pitches in a specific order, and then create other themes by playing that "row" backwards, upside-down, backwards and upside-down, or transposed. Shire ended up with a monster two-note bass line with these 12-tone themes running on top. For our CD, the first-ever release of this music, we have utilized the complete score, including around 15 minutes of music not included in the film. The 12-page booklet includes movie stills, composer photos, and track-by-track notes by Doug Adams.

5.0 out of 5 stars これが名作「サブウェイ・パニック」のサントラ!名盤 !!, 2004/11/4
~コッポラの「カンバセーション盗聴」や「大統領の陰謀」等、渋めの映画音楽家っぽいイメージのデヴィッド・シャイアの派手派手なサントラ。ビッグ・バンド・ジャズ・サウンド(ジャズ・ロック・テイストもあり)で、都会派アクション/サスペンス音楽を奇数拍子を交えてブチかましてます。12音階的なメロディーとノリの良いビート、凝ったアレンジ、ジェリー・ゴー~~ルドスミスの得意なパターンでもありますが、彼に匹敵する格好良さを持った音楽だと思います。疑う方は、まず映画を見てみてください。映画ももちろん傑作ですから。~
