Inspired by director George Pal’s Academy Awardยฎ-winning classic film –
“The Time Machine” – perhaps Russell Garcia’s most well known musical
work. It is a thrilling symphonic score bursting with a sense of wonder
and adventure.
In 1987, Garcia recreated his breathtaking music again
with The Graunke Symphony Orchestra in Munich, Germany which resulted in
this landmark re-recording. Now after 35 years since the initial vinyl
and CD, Russell’s re-scoring and conducting of his brilliant Time
Machine composition is back.
Remastered from the original digital
stereo elements, this new version includes previously unreleased tracks.
The bonus Suite from “Atlantis, The Lost Continent” that Garcia re-scored is also included. 20-page color booklet features background
and an exclusive interview with Russell Garcia.
Cover and graphic design
by famed graphic artist Jim Titus. Liner notes by Producer-Director
Arnold Leibovit. This sensational Limited Edition CD should excite music
collectors everywhere! The Time Machine stands out as perhaps George
Pal’s greatest work aided in large measure by Russell Garcia’s heroic,
emotionally-charged musical score that transports us to places we never
thought possible.
The music is a wonderful mix of dynamism and
romanticism that is both beautiful and uplifting. In Garciaโs inspired
hands, we can hear the loving themes of Filby and The Time Traveler
(their friendship comes alive through the ages), the glorious Time
Machine (a mechanism we fully believed could perform the fantastic), the
beautiful and terrifying H.G. Wellsโ worlds of the Eloi and the
Morlocks – rekindled with a resonance both heartbreaking and
unforgettable. The Time Machine is one of the most beloved sci-fi
features of the 1950s.
A bonafide cinema classics and the one for which
George Pal and Russell Garcia will be most remembered.
