INTRADA Announces:

BUNNY LAKE IS MISSING
Composed and Conducted by PAUL GLASS
INTRADA Special Collection Vol. 344

For the 1965 Otto Preminger film Bunny Lake is Missing, composer Paul Glass not only created a memorable and highly original symphonic score. Glass worked with general serialism and even strict 12-tone techniques for his more atonal sections, moving effortlessly between intense sequences and those with firm tonality. This is showcased best during the film's climactic sequence, the score’s dramatic highlight, where Glass melds both aggressive, dissonant ideas and genuine tonality into a singularly unique and powerful experience lasting nearly six minutes. In the intense, powerful segments of the score, Glass spares nary a single instrument in the virtuoso activity. Virtually every player is called upon to contribute to the violence, be it muted trumpet or fortissimo trombone, jabbing clarinet or stratospheric piccolo, pounding snare drum or demented xylophone.

Intrada had access to the 1965 unedited album pre-master, allowing the label to retain the raw intensity and clarity of the actual performances as well as avoid the additional album reverb prevalent in many ’60s soundtrack albums. These original two-channel stereo tapes were in excellent condition.

Staring Carol Lynley, Laurence Olivier, and Keir Dullea, the film tells the story of a mother and child recently moving to London, only to have the daughter go missing shortly thereafter. Yet no one remembers seeing her and doubt whether she really exists begins to persist.

INTRADA Special Collection Vol. 344
Retail Price: $19.99
SHIPPING WEEK OF 1/18/2016

When I was in film school, Peter Bogdanovich made directing students study Preminger religiously. Somehow, this piece of his filmography never came up. And I've never heard a note of Paul Glass music before either. But I like what I hear!

Why didn't they mention the Zombies in the post?

Stupid of them not to mention that in the post.


That's a great point, too bad you had to couch it with such negativity.

Well, they missed listing one of the main artists. I will buy it either way.

They is me. But one could argue they also don't get any cover credit either on the original RCA album.

The link to the actual product page, which has different info than the announcements. You'd want to play the sound samples anyway.

Well, true, the Zombies hadn't released "Odessey and Oracle" yet, but given their cult following, they are worth mentioning. I think one of the three tracks is an alternate version on this release. Someone should alert Intrada to this. I hope the Zombies tracks are in mono. Those mixes are much better.

I thought the album contained the film tracks, but maybe that only applies to Paul Glass.

IIRC, two of them are the same as the Decca/Parrot versions, but one of them is different. I could be wrong. I will check the audio samples.

Just noticed that the CD cover has the "RCA Victor Dog-and-Horn" logo and "Stereo" typeface, with the Intrada "ISC" catalog number in place of RCA's "LSO-1115" catalog number. Pure nostalgia.

The audio samples wouldn't play.

My recollection is that "Remember You" is a different arrangement (and in a different key) than the more familiar Decca/Parrot single. I think the other two tracks are the same as the Decca/Parrot versions.

The samples don't play on my Mac, as usual ("Missing Plug-In" message).
However, the Cujo samples DO play.

This version of "Remember You" is the better of the two.

Bobbengan --

I'm glad you like your first Paul Glass notes in the samples from BUNNY LAKE, but have you not been interested in any of his other film music which Bruce has been releasing on Kritzerland in recent years? I happily commend them to your attention. along with some of the composer's concert pieces available on CD.

I'll check them out Preston, thanks for bringing them to my attention. They just weren't on my radar.
