Trinity and Beyond - 07/10 - Przegląd wersji Tom Daish, zgłoszone w (Język angielski)
How wonderful of our scientists to invent something as catastrophic as the atom bomb, well done to them. All we need now is a way to create a new planet in the event that we accidentally make our current one uninhabitable - Mars here we come. Trinity and Beyond: The Atomic Bomb Movie is a documentary about the invention of the atom bomb and has received lashings of praise from critics, although as with most documentaries, has likely only been seen by a handful of people. A film of this nature doesn't instinctively seem the obvious place for an enjoyable score, but William Stromberg (along with John Morgan, Lennie Moore and Edgardo Simone, who are credited with additional music) has come up with something that mixes the thrill of invention (no matter how misguided) with the horror of its potential.

Stromberg is, of course, most well known for his re-recordings of classic scores and so perhaps it's not a great surprise that it's largely to Hollywood's golden age that he turns for a good deal of his inspiration. That Bernard Herrmann springs to mind regularly certainly isn't a bad thing, although obvious precedents such as The Day the Earth Stood Still are often bypassed in favour of hints of the Hitchcock thrillers and, perhaps curiously, some of the exotic music from Seventh Voyage of Sinbad. This is most notably in Hiroshima although the latter half of the cue, Nagasaki Requiem, is far from mournful and is strikingly similar to Riders of Doom from Conan the Barbarian by Basil Poledouris (by way of Carl Orff - a rare, genuine case for citing influence), although one surprise is how several of the choral numbers sound like a prototype for Don Davis' Matrix scores.

The handful of robust, doom laden marches and choral outbursts appear in amongst rather more low key material where the Herrmann style of orchestration is also very much in evidence; cyclic patterns and a timbre weighted towards lower instruments in particular. As with many Herrmann scores, this can become somewhat wearing after a while and the brevity of the tracks is somewhat frustrating as they end before really taking off. For all the praise heaped on Stromberg's work, the results are a touch underwhelming at times. It's certainly a sobering listening experience at times. However, Stromberg and his co-composers have revived the spirit of Bernard Herrmann into a score with enough fine moments to be worth a recommendation.

There appears to be a discrepancy in the track listings as the packaging indicates 26. However, the CD itself only contains 24 tracks, the same as the original release (although some of the descriptions are slightly altered) and that listing is reflected below. It appears to be a simple clerical error and the combination of cues into single tracks has not been reflected in the packaging.
