Alex North: A Streetcar Named Desire - Alex North: A Streetcar Named Desire -
Risk-taking and exhilarating, Alex North's music for Elia Kazan's A Streetcar Named Desire ... more
(1951) explores a territory bounded by jazz,
modernist currents, and the composer's
idiosyncratic poignancy. Anticipating the rhythms
of Leonard Bernstein's West Side Story by six
years, North's use of jazz was a perfect choice
given the unsparing of this Tennessee Williams
drama, once described by the author as "a tragedy
of misunderstanding and insensitivity to others."
Ringing with the freshness and energy of New
Orelans, North's music represents the first time
that an American film score used jazz for dramatic
purposes. Also groundbreaking was the use of
dissonance to convey the grey, ambivalent area of
human behaviour, and the deployment of
sophisticated character statements to define the
interpersonal relationships ("Stan and Stella",
"Blanche and Mitch", "Stan and Blanche"). This
newly recorded disc preserves all of the score's
important moments and intricate details, with
Jerry Goldsmith--one of the late composer's best
friends and a legendary figure in his own
right--conducting the exemplary National
Philharmonic Orchestra. --Kevin Mulhall
