Age of Adaline - Rob Simonsen

4/15/15
Picture
No sarcastic comment here. I like that promo campaign.
What You Will Hear:  Light strings, children's choir, bells, and celeste.

Standout Tracks:  January 1st, 1908, First Resurrection, Never Speak A Word Of Her Fate, Another Death In The Life, Constellations, William Recognizes Adeline, Twisted Around The Truth

Will You Be Humming Along?  No, the main theme never sounds complete.  A note from Simonsen, "I wrote it away from picture and there was never a scene long enough to play it.  However by repeating the opening phrases of the love theme, it has a quality of getting stuck in 'starting out' mode, which is fitting for Adeline, who is stuck in time...."

The score this makes me want to dust off:  Anything with Elfman writing for choir.

​Will I come back to it?  Yes.  This is simple music for a love story, but it has an appropriately magical element.  Put this on while staring at a sunset (or just stare at a wall).  Whichever option you choose, you're experience will be wonderfully enhanced.
