Murder on the Orient Express - Richard Rodney Bennett

By:	Tinkerbelle
Date:	11 May 2010
Rating:

Richard Rodney Bennett created an entirely original score, by turns melodious and atonal, to capture the mood of this movie.

Track 1 (Overture) expresses the excitement that is to come perfectly.

Tracks 2 (Kidnapping), 10 (Prelude to murder), and 11 ( The Murder) are eerie and frightening musical masterpieces.

In my opinion the best track is the majestic "The Orient Express" (Track 3) - you can hear the train start … and then the music combines a joyous waltz with an ominous woodwind motif that tells of dark deeds to come.

Track 12 (Finale) picks up all motifs and leads to a beautifully orchestrated satisfactory ending, while the train goes on …

ImO a brilliant score – with every track worth listening!
