[Nicolai P. Zwar]

The liner notes mention that Douglass Fake had experience with conducting and writing/orchestrating for larger ensemble, but that he had never written a film score. The score is written for chamber ensemble, a prominent clarinet, piano, violin, marimba, but since it’s a film score, I can imagine that Douglass Fake set the tempos.
It’s a short — the complete score is just 20 minutes long — but very charming score, stylistically perhaps a mix of Janáček’s “Pohádka” and Stravinsky’s “Soldier’s Tale”, works fully as a self contained “classical” chamber piece.
I got it years ago from Intrada… It is still available at Intrada for the reduced price of $2.99, so that’s certainly more than worth it. (But shipping… yeah, I know.)
