Rick Baitz - What She Said: The Art Of Pauline Kael (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack) '2020

Tracks list

Rick Baitz composes for the moving image, the concert hall, dance and theater.
Credits include HBO’s The Vagina Monologues (featuring vocalist Cathy
Richardson), and HBO’s Life Afterlife, and the scores for several
immersive museum installations, including 24 Hours That Changed History (2016)
for the FDR Presidential Library and Museum, and three soundtracks for the
recently-unveiled Mississippi Civil Rights Museum, with voice-overs by Oprah
Winfrey. Other media credits include an episode of the web series We Speak NYC
(2018), created by the NYC Mayor’s Office of Immigrant Affairs; the
award-winning PBS documentary Body & Soul: Diana & Kathy, the Sundance-honored
The Education of Shelby Knox, National Geographic’s acclaimed specials
The New Chimpanzees, Heart of Africa and Looters; and Geoffrey Nauffts’
ground-breaking film Baby Steps, starring Kathy Bates. Rick’s concert
works have been performed across the US, Europe and Latin America, with his
string quartet Chthonic Dances, premiered by the eminent ensemble ETHEL in 2011,
described as “a bright-hued, vigorously melodic score” by the New
York Times. His Juilliard-commissioned quintet River of January won multiple
awards, including the Delius Composition Contest, and was termed a
“glowing jewel of a new score” — also by the NY Times.
Rick’s upcoming CD Into Light is scheduled for a spring-summer 2018
release on Innova Recordings, and will feature the string quartet Chthonic
Dances, his percussion quartet with live electronics, Hall of Mirrors,
commissioned by The Juilliard School, and other chamber works.
