If I had to compare the score and put it in relation to other Goldsmith scores: it does have a dose of THE ILLUSTRATED MAN and THE MEPHISTO WALTZ, if the MEPHISTO WALTZ were restrained score (which it isn’t). THE REINCARNATION OF PETER PROUD is 70s Goldsmith, he wrote some quite inventive and experimental works. It belongs to the type of music that originally drew me to film music. It’s orchestrated for a chamber orchestra, piano, percussion, and synthesizers. THE REINCARNATION OF PETER PROUD is for the most “dark melancholy”, more subdued suspense. It’s more melodic than the other two scores I mentioned, many cues seem slow and nostalgic, but there are often electronics that slinker menacingly through the music.
