Mychael Danna - Hearts in Atlantis (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack) '2001

Tracks list

There is not a lot to this album of music from Hearts in Atlantis, a
supernatural drama based on a short story by horror writer Stephen King and
starring Anthony Hopkins. Four two- to five-minute cues from Mychael Dannas
score add up to 17 minutes of instrumental orchestral music that is
characterized by slow tempos and lonely, ominous themes played on an echoey
piano or a single string or reed instrument. At times, the music seems warm and
peaceful, at others, haunted. The score excerpts intersperse eight rock & roll
oldies on the soundtrack albums, songs from the 1954-1960 era, including three
Platters hits and familiar songs by the likes of Chubby Checker (The Twist) and
Chuck Berry (Carol). Such music provides period setting in the film, and the
tunes are always pleasant to hear, but, along with the pieces from the score,
they make for an album that isnt much more than a souvenir of the film.
