A splendid collection of compositions from scores created by Alloy Orchestra (keyboards player Caleb Sampson, percussionist Ken Winokur and accordionist/percussionist Terry Donahue, with prominent appearances by saxophonist Neil Leonard.) Fitting new music to silent movies is a tricky business that involves producing wall-to-wall sound without it being overly intrusive for a good part of the time.
The selections here indicate a great deal of expertise along with the requisite musical ability. A large percussion array is used to extremely good effect on many of the tracks, while Sampson puts his keyboards to majestic use - layers of thick, fat string sounds vying with rippling, flowing harp tones that balance lightly against shaken tambourines and tinkling chimes. This is excellent music for imaginative meditation as well as for its intended use.
