Continuing with the black and white musical theme, I’ve been spending this year’s portion of the pandemic adding electronic music to a 1936 Russian space opera.
In the year 1946, the Soviet space program is undergoing turmoil. Professor Sedikh, who is planning to lead the first manned exploration to the Moon, is denounced by his rival Professor Karin as being too old and too mentally unstable for the mission.
This handcrafted masterpiece clocks in around 12 minutes 33 seconds and while listening to the audio-only version is grand, it’s not as triumphant as the video-and-audio rendition. The music more closely falls the movie scenes whereas with my previous work I wrote the music first and adapted the footage to the notes.
Note: the film appears to have various name, hence the various link titles.
- Cosmic Journey (1936) - YouTube
- Cosmic Journey (1936) - IMDb
- Cosmic Voyage - Wikipedia
- Space Flight (1935 film) intertitles
I’ve also been growing my beard so I can build and fly my own space rocket #128.
