Still Alice - Ilan Eshkeri

1/12/15

Thank You!
What You Will Hear:  A very delicate ensemble including piano and strings (a trio?).  Mostly tonal and beautiful, sometimes atonal and nerve-racking.  There's a nice cover of "If I Had A Boat."

Standout Tracks: 
 L.A. Drive (Original), Running, Alice Tells The Children, Beach, Butterfly, Speech, Pills, Souls Rising, It Was About Love


Will you be humming along?
  There' s a wonderful little motif that shows up quiet often.  Check out "Running" for a lively version.  See "Speech" for a somber take on the theme.


The score this makes me want to dust off:
  Belle - Rachel Portman


​Will I come back to it?
  Yes.  This score somehow manages to sound fragile and hopeful all at the same time.  I can't explain the music theory after just one listen, but it is a fantastic accomplishment by Mr. Eshkeri.  The mixture of beauty and dissonance will (I'm sure) do well with accompanying a story about the horrible realities of Alzheimer's.  It must be a heartbreaking story - and this music is perfect for it.
