John Corigliano - Altered States Original Soundtrack Recording
Review by gary leland
The Altered States Original Soundtrack Recording by John Corigliano is a mesmerizing musical journey that has left listeners in awe. The album, which features the original score for the 1980 science-fiction film Altered States, is a testament to Corigliano's unparalleled talent as a composer.
From the opening track, "Main Title," the listener is transported to a world of otherworldly sounds and haunting melodies that perfectly capture the film's eerie and unsettling atmosphere. Corigliano's use of dissonant harmonies and unconventional instrumentation creates a sense of unease that is both thrilling and unsettling.
The album's standout tracks include "Love Theme," a beautiful and melancholic piece that perfectly captures the film's themes of love and loss, as well as the frenetic and intense "In the Lab," which perfectly captures the film's climactic and chaotic final act.
