Free Music Review: Kubrick, Rosenman, BARRY LYNDON, And A Great Soundtrack
Hit: 5 Stars

Along with EYES WIDE SHUT, BARRY LYNDON is perhaps the most misunderstood film that Stanley Kubrick ever made. Its ironic story of an 18th century nobleman who lies, cheats, and fights his way to the top of society, only to find there's a price to pay was typically Kubrickian, but audiences in 1975 when the film was released were expecting something totally UN-Kubrickian.

But as with many of Kubrick's films, it is the music that Kubrick utilizes that helps to make the film so memorable; and BARRY LYNDON is no exception. Aside from performances of traditional Irish music by the legendary Chieftains, much of the soundtrack of BARRY LYNDON is of the 18th and early 19th century: Vivaldi's "Cello Concerto In E Minor"; the Andante of Schubert's Piano Trio In E Flat Major; and two pieces by Mozart, the March from "Idomeneo" and the German Dance No. 1 In C Major. All are intricately used in the film as part of the intellectual and narrative drive of the piece.

But if BARRY LYNDON has a musical calling card, as 2001: A SPACE ODYSSEY did with Strauss' "Also Sprach Zarathustra", and A CLOCKWORK ORANGE did with Beethoven's Symphony No. 9, it is in the use of George Frideric Handel's Sarabande In D Minor, used in full orchestral fashion to bookend the film, and for more sinister purposes during important duels. And apart from a few uses of pre-existing recordings, much of this adapted music for BARRY LYNDON was done by the late (and frequently underrated) Leonard Rosenman, whose credits included GIANT; FANTASTIC VOYAGE; BENEATH THE PLANET OF THE APES; and A MAN CALLED HORSE; in BARRY LYNDON, he works with the National Philharmonic Orchestra of London. His efforts earned this film one of its four Oscars, for Best Adaptation of Music.

As with any number of Kubrick's films, it has taken BARRY LYNDON some time to be fully appreciated by audiences, but time and patience eventually paid off. The music, however, was always there; and the end result is here on this recording for all to hear.
