INTRADA Announces: WHISPERS IN THE DARK Music Composed and Conducted by THOMAS NEWMAN INTRADA Special Collection Vol. 199 Although a soundtrack album had been announced in 1992 when the Paramount Pictures film Whispers in the Dark was released in theaters, the album never materialized. Now, some 20 years later, Intrada delivers Thomas Newman's score on CD -- a score that is as provocative, alluring and transfixing as the film itself. The plot delicately balances the dichotomy of salacious sexual submissiveness with tenderhearted palpitations of romance and is constantly blurring the lines between the two. Newman’s handiwork elevates these dual characteristics which permeate the overall tone of the film. The music is ripe with buttery-smooth phrases of unadulterated romance stippled with gut-wrenching anguish, hedonistic desire and uncontrollable obsession. Thomas Newman created a startling musical soundscape for Whispers In The Dark, employing signature trademarks of unique, extremely transparent instrumental colors—both acoustic and synthesized. The score as conceived and recorded, however, became something considerably different during final production. Research revealed that the music was rarely used in the finished film as originally recorded or even where intended -- including the main title itself, which was tracked with music from later in the score. Intrada presents the complete score as originally conceived by Newman. Whispers In The Dark sports a bevy of accomplished actors including Annabella Sciorra, Deborah Unger, Jamey Sheridan, and Alan Alda. Ann Hecker (Sciorra) is a psychiatrist whose mentally unstable patient, Eve Abergray (Unger), secretly reveals a series of submissive sexual encounters experienced with her unnamed boyfriend. Soon thereafter, Ann meets a debonair business pilot named Doug (Sheridan) who courts her with irresistibly charming wit and gentlemanly manners. Ann’s brief encounter with bliss comes crashing down when she discovers that Doug is the man with whom Eve has been having violent sexual encounters. Murder, twists and turns follow immediately after... INTRADA Special Collection Vol. 199 Retail Price: $19.99 Available Now For track listing and sound samples, please visit http://store.intrada.com/s.nl/it.A/id.7516/.f |

Thank you for doing the unpopular and stepping up with an early Thomas Newman score. This one is obviously ordered, and I hope there are plenty more to follow. |

That's great and I will be buying a copy. I'm a bit disapointed though that it only took Eve 41 seconds to masturbate. ![]() |

Very cool release. I remember back in '92 when I would buy nearly every newly released Varèse disc. I was disappointed about the cancelation of this title and Alan Silvestri's DUTCH. Now it's here finally and all the better… Possibly, in a parallel universe, the 30 album presentation did get pressed after all and is readily in stock at SAE for $4.99 a copy. ![]() |

Wow. The samples are incredible. Chris Crowe also worked with James Newton Howard on Saigon : Off Limits, which is a very cool synth score. Now give us The Lost Boys and Less Than Zero, please ! |

Anyone else noticed that tracks 22 "She Hung Herself" and 23 "Cognac At Night" are actually the same track twice? |

hmm, i can't imagine this is only on my disc? on mine track 22 "she hung herself" is IDENTICAL to the following track 23 "cognac at night", so the piece that's actually supposed to be track 22 is missing. what about yours? |
