Description: | In collaboration with Newen, Music Box Records proudly presents the seventh volume
of the collection Great Television Soundtracks dedicated to the original television
soundtrack composed by Philippe Sarde: Le Rouge et le Noir (The Red and the Black,
1997).
Aired on French television, The Red and the Black was adapted by Danièle Thompson
and director Jean-Daniel Verhaeghe from the novel by French writer Stendhal. The
story follows an ambitious, but impoverished young man, Julien Sorel (Kim Rossi Stuart),
who seduces women of high social standing in order to improve his prospects.
The orchestral and choral breadth of the score composed by Philippe Sarde is quite
remarkable for a TV production and seeks to echo 19th century Romanticism with
inspiration from Bach, Wagner or Rossini, whom Stendhal admired. The theme associated
with Louise de Rênal (Carole Bouquet) is played on the flute and accompanied
by piano. The ear-catching melody plunges the listener into the throes of the burning
passion that consumes Louise and Julien. The main theme, dominated by strings, develops
into two movements, one quite calm, built around two chords played in tremolos
and varied, the other more tumultuous, in keeping with the personality of the main
character, who struggles with controlling his emotions and faces permanent conflict
with others and himself. The score was recorded with the London Symphony Orchestra
and the choir Metro Voices at the Abbey Road Studios.
Remastered from the original recording sessions, the program has been supervised by
Philippe Sarde and Ã?douard Dubois. The CD comes with an 8-page booklet with liner
notes by Sylvain Pfeffer, discussing the TV film and the score. The release is limited to
500 units. - Total Time ? 60:48
