Free Music Review: High Romantic Melancholy!
Hit: 5 Stars
Michael Nyman's film score for "The End Of The Affair" is a stunning and remarkably beautiful release. The music is dominated by lush string arrangements and moody piano passages. A thoroughly engrossing and melancholic CD, it may be one of the most delicate and romantic scores I have ever heard. I cannot recommend this enough, for it captures both the forbidden passion and profound sadness of Graham Greene's characters. I never get tired of this disc and it is perfect for those rainy Sunday afternoons.
The End of the Affair: Original Motion Picture Soundtrack (1999 Film) Poster
Brooding, modern, and introspective, Michael Nyman's score for Neil Jordan's screen adaptation of Graham Greene's dark, postwar drama largely eschews melodic accessibility and convention. Instead, much as frequent David Cronenberg collaborator Howard Shore (and the great Bernard Herrmann before them), Nyman utilizes subtly shifting minimalist motifs (played by his namesake string and wind ensemble) to underscore the film's moods and amplify its drama. Though the result may not be memorable from a traditional melodic sense, many will find it an emotionally commanding soundscape that's as challenging as it is rewarding. --Jerry McCulleySoundtracks Music CDs
