The musical score was composed by Sylvester Levay. Probably on the synclavier ... The music turned out to be quite powerful, although didn't have enough melody. But perhaps Levay did as director Wilson demanded. A film that lasts a little over 100 minutes has about 30 minutes of original music. In any case, I really liked the score and would like to see the official release. Sylvester Levay in the prime of his creative potential!    Posted:   Sep 7, 2021 - 10:30 AM     By:   Tobias   (Member) I put off watching for a long time and finally yesterday I watched this funny movie, which surprisingly I really liked.

This and Courage Mountain is the two scores by him that I would not mind if someone would release someday.    Posted:   Sep 7, 2021 - 10:36 AM     By:   ray92   (Member) I put off watching for a long time and finally yesterday I watched this funny movie, which surprisingly I really liked.

Tobias, As far as I remember the second score is completely orchestral?    Posted:   Sep 7, 2021 - 1:57 PM     By:   First Breath   (Member) I write a bit about both BURGLAR and COURAGE MOUNTAIN here: http://celluloidtunes.no/sylvester-levay-a-filmography/    Posted:   Sep 7, 2021 - 9:24 PM     By:   ray92   (Member) I write a bit about both BURGLAR and COURAGE MOUNTAIN here: http://celluloidtunes.no/sylvester-levay-a-filmography/ Oh, now I remember where I read about Burglar's score! Thank you! First Breath, I understand that you didn't like the score very much? Am I wrong?    Posted:   Sep 8, 2021 - 5:43 AM     By:   First Breath   (Member) I write a bit about both BURGLAR and COURAGE MOUNTAIN here: http://celluloidtunes.no/sylvester-levay-a-filmography/ Oh, now I remember where I read about Burglar's score! Thank you! First Breath, I understand that you didn't like the score very much? Am I wrong? I haven't seen the film since the early 90s, but like you, I found the score to be too unmelodic, with lots of rocking drum machines. A pity no score is on the album, though.    Posted:   Sep 8, 2021 - 5:45 AM     By:   Totoro   (Member) I haven't seen the film since the early 90s, but like you, I found the score to be too unmelodic, with lots of rocking drum machines.

Speaking of Levay, when I first came across your interview with him, I thought to myself: The interviewer definitely really likes Levay's musical scores. So I'm curious to know what is your favorite Levay score? And what soundtrack would you most like to see oficial released?    Posted:   Sep 8, 2021 - 1:59 PM     By:   First Breath   (Member) Very difficult questions, but I would really loved to see releases of WEREWOLF, THE ABDUCTION OF KARI SWENSON or THE OWL. NAVY SEALS is among my favorites by him, of course helped by the fact that the score is on CD. Check out the 7 minute opening of this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YFywQol-vjY&ab_channel=TVfanatic    Posted:   Sep 8, 2021 - 2:47 PM     By:   ray92   (Member) Very difficult questions, but I would really loved to see releases of WEREWOLF, THE ABDUCTION OF KARI SWENSON or THE OWL.

Check out the 7 minute opening of this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YFywQol-vjY&ab_channel=TVfanatic Very beautiful theme! Perhaps I understand why "difficult" ... Sylvester Levay was not one of those composers who wrote good 2-3 scores and that's it all. He really created quality music and fully revealed his strengths and skills. Levay's had his own distinctive and original style.    Posted:   Sep 8, 2021 - 3:07 PM     By:   ray92   (Member) ‘The Owl' is also good. Just checked out one of the 'Werewolf' episodes - great themes with pulsating synths.    Posted:   Jan 24, 2022 - 9:22 AM     By:   ray92   (Member) When I first watched the movie, I somehow didn't pay attention to this wonderful cue, which lasts only a minute (starts at 1:23:56): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KtBFA8lrCS8    Posted:   Jan 24, 2022 - 10:05 AM     By:   First Breath   (Member) Nice keyboards. I just got an e-mail from Levay, he asked if I had any audio from TIME BOMB...    Posted:   Jan 24, 2022 - 10:21 AM     By:   ray92   (Member) Nice keyboards.

Is it about this movie? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Timebomb_(1991_film)    Posted:   Jan 24, 2022 - 11:02 AM     By:   First Breath   (Member) No, this one: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0088273/reference/?mode=desktop&    Posted:   Jan 24, 2022 - 11:42 AM     By:   ray92   (Member) No, this one: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0088273/reference/?mode=desktop& I wonder why Levay asked this? ..    Posted:   Jan 24, 2022 - 12:29 PM     By:   First Breath   (Member) I guess he doesn't have any music from it in his own archives.     General Discussion: Burglar (1987) - Composed by Sylvester Levay    < 1  >   Go to page:  1   First Post    General Discussion • Trading Post • Non-Film Score Discussion  Profile • Preferences • Community Rules • Help/Contact • Search Board You must log in or register to post.   Go to page:  1
