INTRADA Announces: THE REINCARNATION OF PETER PROUD Music Composed and Conducted by JERRY GOLDSMITH INTRADA ISC 421 Intrada announces the premiere release of Jerry Goldsmith's score for the 1975 thriller The Reincarnation of Peter Proud, one of the last and most sought after Goldsmith scores never previously released. The quest to find the music elements for this release was fraught with frustration and challenge, but ultimately netted discoveries that facilitated this release. The score itself revolves around a moody, elegiac, long-line melody, first played by chamber-sized orchestra and piano, with solo flute over the film’s opening flashback scene of Jeff Curtis swimming in a lake at night only to encounter—and be killed by—his, wife, Marcia. Goldsmith combined his symphonic palette with a substantial array of electronics, laying the groundwork for his style in the following year's for Logan's Run. As Jeff Bond writes in his notes, "It’s a score that...seems to bubble up out of the subconscious like a half-remembered dream, gradually sharpening its focus from echoplexed flutes and synthesizers to hard-edged, acoustic orchestral writing as the movie moves from Peter’s world of memories and dreams into an ugly, inevitable reality." The first half of the score (through “Home at Last”) is mastered from a DAT copy of the original ½“ 3-channel stereo session mixes made by Armin Steiner and copied down to ¼“ tape at some point. The second half of the score was also taken from a DAT, this time transferred from mono tape sources at about the same time as the stereo mixes. To reduce the contrast between the stereo and mono tracks, Intrada mastered the latter with a judicious amount of state-of-the-art Altiverb to add a tiny amount of stereo “ambience.” In the film, sports-coat-wearing professor Peter Proud (Michael Sarrazin) leaves behind his increasingly frustrated girlfriend (Cornelia Sharpe) while tracing his reincarnation dream imagery to Massachusetts, eventually tracking down widowed Marcia Curtis (Margot Kidder) and her attractive daughter, Ann (Jennifer O’Neill). As Peter ingratiates himself with and then seduces Ann Curtis, Marcia—who killed her philandering husband Jeff (Tony Stephano) in 1946—is overcome with the suspicion that Peter is somehow connected to Jeff Curtis, and finds the combination of bitter hatred, jealousy and lust that drove her to kill her husband boiling up again.

Fantastic news. Didn’t think I would ever see this one out and with stereo selections. Sounded like one hell of an effort to get this done. Congratulations and thank you very much. Great end to the year for Intrada and JG fans. |

Still wouldn't mind a fresh new recording of this score. A very strong 40-minute presentation can be made with said recording. |

I don't have my copy yet so I don't have an opinion yet, but some folks on the FSM board wondered if the entire mono soundtrack was available, and could it have been released with the stereo tracks in their own section. The reason given that the mono sounds consistently good, whereas the stereo has anomalies. |

We did have the entire score in mono and intiallly planned to release two CDs with the complete mono program but then felt the mono also had anomalies and most people would prefer the stereo image since it’s key to the detail in the score even if not perfect. We realized a few would probably like the mono but we decided not to pass the cost of a 2-CD set to everyone since most wouldn’t need it. |

Well, sounds like a good enough reason to revisit the title again 5-6 years from now after this initial version has been sold out a while.  Yavar |

This is another JG that seems somewhat experimental, which is one of the things I love most about his scores. |
