New score to Metropolis (1927) • Music composed by Didier Thunus • Performed by EverKent (2021) • Movie available here: https://rb.gy/5z7snf • Album available here: https://rb.gy/gteh9s • Fritz Lang's Metropolis is the undisputed reference of German expressionist cinema, and a worldwide classic that established many practices in filmmaking for decades to come. Born as the most expensive and most ambitious project of the time, it held on to its promises by delivering a bigger-than-life portrayal of its class warfare plot. • Restored to its original length in 2010, after having been shown around the world in a heavily truncated version, it now lasts 2h20 and presents the full narrative as originally intended by its authors. The original score had been provided by Gottfried Huppertz, composed for a large orchestra and drawing inspiration from classical music. It was used for the film's premiere and later for the restored version. Meanwhile, many attempts at re-scoring the movie have been made. • The present version aims at providing a more varied musical counterpoint, inspired by the masters of film music who have transformed in the meantime the way movies had to be underscored. Owing to the long runtime, the right compromise had to be found between the repetition of the main themes and the novelty that would keep the appeal intact throughout the movie, as well as between a consistent soundscape and the need for varying the orchestrations. Note that if the score may sound anachronic with regards to the period when the movie was made, it is not necessarily the case with respect to the time when the action is supposed to take place. • Cue sheet • 00:00 Metropolis #1 (Overture) • 01:39 Immineo #1 (Opening Credits) • 03:45 The Shift #1 (Underground Workers) • 06:40 The Carefree Days • 09:53 Maria and Freder #1 (The Children) • 13:25 The World Below • 16:30 Metropolis #2 (The City) • 18:27 Father and Son • 24:45 The Dismissal • 31:43 Metropolis #3 (The Swap) • 36:55 The Mad Scientist #1 (Prelude to the Robot) • 40:11 Futura #1 (Introductions) • 43:11 The Plan • 46:13 The Shift #2 (Catacombs) • 48:25 The Prophet • 54:34 Echoes of the Underground #1 (The Chosen) • 55:53 Maria and Freder #2 (The Kiss) • 1:00:56 Immineo #2 (Shadows and Skulls) • 1:03:51 Metropolis #4 (The Monk) / Babylon #1 (The Crypt) • 1:07:27 The Crossover • 1:15:13 Maria's Cry • 1:17:21 Haunted House • 1:20:15 Futura #2 (Metamorphosis) • 1:23:05 The Mad Scientist #2 (One Last Thing) [in loving memory of Ennio Morricone (1928-2020)] • 1:25:26 Vision of Horror • 1:27:23 Babylon #2 (The Dance) • 1:31:22 Furioso • 1:34:54 The Fake Prophet • 1:40:52 Echoes of the Underground #2 (Death of Georgy) • 1:42:21 The Revolt #1 (Swarming the Underground) • 1:46:50 The Revolt #2 (The Phone Call) • 1:48:27 The Flood • 1:54:57 Maria and Freder #3 (City Collapse) • 1:57:40 Tarantella • 2:03:28 The Party • 2:05:23 March of the Dungarees • 2:08:30 Witch Hunting • 2:10:27 The Bonfire • 2:14:32 Cathedral Fight • 2:18:05 The Resolution
