INTRADA Announces: ELOISE AT THE PLAZA/ELOISE AT CHRISTMASTIME Music by BRUCE BROUGHTON INTRADA Signature Edition ISE1009 Intrada presents ELOISE. ELOISE is a precocious six-year-old girl who lives at the New York Plaza Hotel. She roams its halls day in and out in search of adventure. In 2002 and 2004 Handmade Films brought ELOISE to the small screen in two live action adventures: ELOISE AT THE PLAZA and ELOISE AT CHRISTMASTIME. Both were directed by Kevin Lima, who had graduated from such animated fare as Disney's THE LITTLE MERMAID, ALADDIN, and TARZAN (which he co-directed). Actress Sofia Vassileva (MEDIUM) brings the energy, sass, and shrewdness of the beloved children's book character to life in both sparkling adventures at the Plaza Hotel. Julie Andrews plays Nanny, a tolerant, motherlike figure to Eloise's who still appreciates her young charge's exuberance. Composer Bruce Broughton and Lima were on the same page with regards to the musical approach -- the movies' quirky energy and frenetic pace called for high-energy music -- much like a cartoon score. In ELOISE AT THE PLAZA, Broughton graces the score with 1950s New York sophistication. He took two approaches to the score: the hotel, city, and romantic scenes are underscored by full orchestra, while the music associated with Eloise is performed by a playful nine-piece ensemble. The score for ELOISE AT CHRISTMASTIME takes on even larger orchestral proportions. For a festive holiday feel, Broughton weaves elements of "The Nutcracker" into the score, going so far as to Nutcracker-ize some of his own themes. The end result are two effervescent, fun-filled scores...the closest thing to capturing a rambunctious childhood musically on CD. Intrada presents both scores on this 2-CD set and is limited to 1200 copies.

FINALLY!!! These are great scores and long over due for release. Interesting choice for cover art work - what lead to using the illustrations rather than images of the HALLMARK DVD releases, which would have also made sense to use, if not more so? Either way - Great release guys!!!! - Oz |

They're not HALLMARK DVD releases...they're DISNEY DVD releases. That could probably answer your question.[/quote] Well, you know that I am a stickler for the design on these things. I thought these were released under the HALLMARK channel, right? Perhaps I'm wrong, it's been a while since I've seen them. Still, be they HALLMARK or DISNEY, why the illustrations and not stills from the films? That was the question. - Oz |

I just woke up, fresh and avaible, and of course ordered IMMEDIATLY this double CD set. Like Olivier, I absolutly don't know those TV movies but I trust Bruce Broughton. Not a surprise but a very welcome release. Thank you (again) Intrada ! Note: I'd love to see you release Glory & Honor too. And Stay Tuned. And The Rescue. And The Blue & The Grey. And so many others... |
