Product Description

Guitarist Jonny Greenwood has composed a hauntingly dramatic instrumental score for Oscar-nominated writer-director Paul Thomas Anderson's ambitious new film, "There Will Be Blood." The soundtrack will appeal to serious movie-music fans, who will appreciated this rare find: an intelligent, beautiful and deeply cinematic orchestrated score - performed by the BBC Orchestra and London Sinfonietta - that can hold its own next to the classic work of such composers as Bernard Herrman, Elmer Bernstein and Ennio Morricone

Amazon.com

This album marks Radiohead guitarist Jonny Greenwood's first high-profile soundtrack--and one that's also easily among the most striking offerings of 2007. Music is particularly important for director Paul Thomas Anderson (remember Magnolia and Punch-Drunk Love?) and here, his choice of Greenwood is a gamble that more than paid off. The score is extremely string-heavy, and tension (of which there's plenty in the Upton Sinclair-based movie) derives from them instead of the usual percussive Hollywood tropes (indeed, percussions are almost entirely absent from the CD). "Henry Plainview" and "Proven Lands" are part of a larger piece, Popcorn Superhet Receiver, that Greenwood wrote as Composer-in-Residence at the BBC; both cues display the musician's imaginative use of strings, suggestively scary on the first, pounding and creepy on the second. But Greenwood also knows when to bring in a new instrumental voice, as with the Satie-like piano on "Prospectors Arrive." Equally at ease writing for a string quartet and for a larger orchestra, Greenwood has come up with compositions closer to the new-music world that to the vast majority of scores coming out of Tinseltown--something we should be really grateful for. This is a new, exciting direction for film music. --Elisabeth Vincentelli

I don't think I have seen a movie that has moved me, or has the depth of insights and discovery that this movie has, and Jonny Greenwood has produced what for me is a very emotional and thoughtful thought provoking score. I can't imagine a better soundtrack being made for this film. The frantic quirky chaotic noisy parts in the film, (playing as Plainview is running with his son in his arms across the field) are not as deeply profound and moving and meaningful musically as "Prospectors Arrive" or "Oil" which are masterpieces of emotional description and communication. And as I write this I realize just how important this very soundtrack is in telling the story so effectively. Without this score I don't think the movie would have the depth of story that it does based on acting performances alone, as great as the cast's performances are. The movie GREATLY benefits from this deft score. Daniel Day Lewis's acting is superb, and this music only helps to expound on his inner turmoil, ambivilances, risks, and challenging decisions he faces, as well as capture the tensions occurring on screen from varying character points of view, and the story line is so much the better for it. "Haunting" is a much used term to describe such music, which I feel does not fully describe how well the movie AND the music absolutely transcend time to the point that I am not watching a movie about a real or imagined history, but I am right there in the original moment. Feeling the pain and strain of those characters decisions and choices, and LACK of choices. This soundtrack has an poignant emotional counterpoint to it beyond just complimentary string/orchestra music to accompany a film. I found the music created or expounded upon a strong lingering aftertaste of memory, continual transition, or unrelenting dissonance depending on the scene. Most soundtracks do not come close to accomplishing these levels of interwoven details.

There Will Be Blood is a great movie, a unique vision probably greater than the Upton Sinclair novel which inspired it. It would not have been as great a movie without Jonny Greenwood's music. Music deepens image, gives character to the shot, establishes the feeling. Here, dialogue is sparse; much depends on image and sound, not words. Thus this is a thoroughly cinematic movie (i.e., it shows us things, it doesn't talk us there, and in the showing, gives us meaning and feeling), the music inexorably bound in the telling, in my mind the most cinematic film of 2007. The masterful choice of the final movement of Brahms' violin concerto, used twice in the film, arguably one of the last gasps of anti-Wagner, conservative, romantic triumphalism, is perfect: "there will be blood"....... but we shall win. (For the record, Brahms didn't).

I was disturbed when I learned the Greenwood score was not nominated for an Oscar. All other nominated scores, including the very pretty, ambitious one for Atonement, sound so forgettably conventional! Subsequently I learned that Jonny's does not qualify according to Academy rules because chunks of it consist of music he had previously composed and published, never-you-mind how artfully they are worked into the film. Pity, because recognition of the highest order is obviously deserved. Director and Music Editor are also deserving of highest praise.

Greenwood is that rare breed, a thoroughly classically trained musician (and violist) who "crossed-over" to become a superb rock guitarist now perhaps coming back to his classical roots. I'm rather glad he seems to finally be firmly out of his classical closet. Jonny Greenwood deserves a statuette of some sort.

The standard actors seemed to set as near perfection was (is) Brando. When you watch Daniel Day Lewis YOU are watching a level of performance which I believe is the new standard of near perfection as an actor can achieve. Every move, gesture, dialect just appears to top the performance of the one he did before.
In There Will be Blood I was totally mesmerized . As wonderful as DDL was in My Left Foot ,a brutally difficult role ,to play physically or
The butcher in Gangs Of Ny, he actually reaches another move up the ladder that you didnt think had another rung in this film,
In this movie about turn of the century oil wild catters in Ca. you feel the grime of the oil ,and being manipulated as he does with all that are around him. You see his extremely subtle gestures that you just know mean danger is around the corner .When he catches on that a man playing at being his brother there is the slightest of gesture that lets the watcher know something terrible is about to happen . Whether he reaching the audience with these very subtle moves or is screaming in your face ,you are petrified at what this man is capable of doing.
Who ever choose the haunting melodies or the exuberance of a violin just added to this tremendous performance.

I love this music and I know nothing about this type of music. I bought it because the film moved me. I thought it wouldn't have succeeded so well without the sound. Yet it stands up on its own if you just want to listen. The musicians who play these compositions should be rock stars. Fantastic.

Une œuvre très originale De la musique moderne de facture à la fois classique et contemporaine qui s'écoute indépendamment des images. Une musique de film qui se passe du film, qui vit pour elle même. Et quelle prise de son ! Remarquable.

A fantastic film score that deserved an Oscar nod (but was ruled ineligible). It's a wonderful mix of violins and piano and is easily Jonny Greenwood's best score to date.

To buy it on vinyl though, the sound quality makes it a whole lot deeper (especially using surround sound)

Es un soundtrack maravilloso. Es conciso y mantiene la tensión a lo largo de su duración. Recomiendo que, si les gusta esta obra, busquen el álbum que tiene con obras de Penderecki. Genio ese Jonny

5.0 out of 5 stars There Will Be Music!
Reviewed in Germany on July 4, 2009
Großartig, was Radiohead-Mitglied Jonny Greenwood hier abliefert! Nicht das übliche Soundbeiwerk der hollywoodschen Blockbuster, sondern - und das ist der Indikator für taugliche Filmmusik - eine Komposition, die für sich allein bestehen kann. Ganz in der Tradition von, man traut es sich kaum zu sagen, sagen wir S. Prokofjew, B. Herrmann und Co.

Für Zitatesammler: Man vergleiche "Henry Plainview" bzw. "There Will Be Blood" (Titel 5 u. 6) mit "After The Rain" von Barry Guy (1992). Darüberhinaus "Proven Lands" (Titel 8) mit "Natures mortes" von Georg Friedrich Haas (2003).

Anspieltipp: Tracks 1 und 8

Abschließendes Urteil: Kaufen und genießen!
