The Annes Secret Marriage The Queen Katherines Trial 0 out of 5 stars Beautiful period music, July 22, 2009 The life of Anne Boleyn has fascinated British historical scholars for centuries. As the second wife of King Henry VIII, she was made Queen of England in 1533, and gave birth to a daughter who would later go on to be Queen Elizabeth I, but was the accused of adultery, incest, and high treason, and subsequently beheaded in 1 Not only that, she was indirectly responsible for the creation of the Church of England. Director Justin Chadwicks sumptuous film, The Other Boleyn Girl, is based on the novel by Philippa Gregory, and explores the life of Anne and her sister, Mary, and the political and sexual machinations that led to them becoming rivals in the court of Henry VIII. The film stars Natalie Portman as Anne, Scarlett Johansson as Mary, Eric Bana as Henry, and David Morrissey, Mark Rylance, Kristin Scott-Thomas and Benedict Cumberbatch in supporting roles. For the music, Chadwick turned initially turned to Edward Shearmur, but for whatever reason his work was eventually removed, and he was replace by up-and-coming California-born composer Paul Cantelon. Cantelon is a new name in the film music world; he was a violin prodigy who made his performance debut at the age of 13, and later studied at the Geneva Conservatory of Music, the Juilliard School of Music in New York City, the Conservatoire de Paris. Prior to his film music debut, Cantelon released a number of solo classical piano recordings, founded the alternative band Wild Colonials, and performed with a diverse range of artists from Yo-Yo Ma to Joe Cocker and the Red Hot Chili Peppers. He made his mainstream film music debut in 2005 with the film Everything is Illuminated, and received praise for his score for the critically acclaimed 2007 drama The Diving Bell and the Butterfly, but The Other Boleyn Girl is by far the most impressive work of his yet brief career. As one might expect for this kind of romantic costume drama, Cantelons score is classical in tone and style, making use of a traditional chamber-sized ensemble, and concentrating solely on good, old fashioned orchestral writing. He does try to inject of a little bit of Renaissance flavor into the score by occasionally introducing harps, lutes, a tinkling cimbalom, and other such instruments from the Tudor era, but on the whole Cantelons music is entrenched in a modern, western classical style, which is pleasing indeed. The themes are lush and florid, are dramatic without being melodramatic, and have an innate Englishness to them, which is difficult to describe, but immediately apparent upon listening to the music. There is a hint of both Ralph Vaughan Williams pastoral style and Georges Delerues elegant romance in the lovely Opening Titles, which features a miss potter trailer tender oboe theme which eventually gives way to a swooning piano melody. Mary and Henry is gorgeous piece for strings, soft woodwinds and shimmering harps that speaks of refined romance; Anne Returns allows a solo guitar and solo piano to play off each other with great dexterity; and Anne Charms Henry, quite cleverly, miss potter trailer some faint exotic textures, and a dexterous oboe performance that has the beckoning guile of an Indian snake charmer. The lamenting tone of Mary Leaves Court is bittersweet; attractive, but pitifully sad at the same time. But this is not to say that The Other Boleyn Girl is all about ornate romance; cues such as Going to Court are more energetic and forceful, with an increased percussion presence, and Annes Coronation is an exultant choral piece of which Handel would be proud, while elsewhere Annes Secret Marriage, Anne is Exiled and Mary Lies for Anne provide the first touches of the shades of darkness that eventually come to characterize the latter parts of the score. Queen Katherines Trial is a stunningly realized piece filled with a sense of dignified resignation and intense sorrow; this continues on into the equally striking Banished. Anne Conspires is a threatening piece underpinned by the unsettling rumble of tremolo strings, while the finale of the score Anne and George, Guilty, The Execution and Finale is a quartet of intensely beautiful, but miss potter trailer sad string-based cues that layer thickly the feelings of velvet-clad heartbreak. Its not subtle, but it packs an undeniable emotional punch. This is all wonderful work by Cantelon, and one which is deserving of high praise, but I can see how this might not appeal to the masses. I have often read comments by people who find this kind of scoring to be boring, probably due to its lack of action music and blaring brasses.
