	Georges Delerue - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

		He insisted to be allowed to orchestrate and conduct himself in order to polish every detail.Georges Delerue was extraordinarily gifted for melody and at creating surrounding overtones which encapsulated the spirit of the movies for which he collaborated, enhancing them often beyond the expectations of their directors.
		Georges Delerue died from a heart attack in 1992 at age the age of 67, just after the recording of the last cue for the soundtrack to Rich in Love.

	Filmtracks: Joe Versus the Volcano (Georges Delerue)
		Joe Versus the Volcano: (Georges Delerue) In the final few years before his untimely death in 1992, Georges Delerue was enormously productive in the film composing scene, with a dozen scores to his credit in the 1990's alone.
		Interestingly, however, after hearing the mastery that Delerue had created in those fifteen minutes, the producers of the film asked the composer to beef up the content to beyond 45 minutes in length, and Delerue, at the last minute, was happy to oblige.
		Fitting as it is, however, that this cue was seemingly Delerue's favorite when scoring the film; the driving brass in the minor key build to one magnificent major key chord, after which the love theme is performed in full.

	Great Composers: Georges Delerue
		Delerue was very badly treated by Hollywood, as the directors and producers seemingly didn't know how to employ his talents properly, and steadfastly refused to hire him for quality projects.
		Delerue was a master of capturing the emotional resonance in relationships and situations.
		Delerue's score is a dark, menacing affair with subtle Arabic, or African, overtones to enhance to exotic nature of the evil circus that comes to town, and a surprisingly violent action element that seems very out-of-character for the quiet Frenchman.

	Filmtracks: Great Composers: Georges Delerue (Compilation)
		In what was truly an international career, Delerue embodied the pure romantic side of film music, composing over thirty years for some of the world's most dramatic and sensuous films.
		The culmination of Delerue's dramatic talents came in 1986's Platoon, for which he composed agonizing adagio that is equal, if not better to Barber's, which director Oliver Stone opted to use in much of the film instead.
		Nevertheless, Delerue's ability to apply a strong theme and simple harmonies into his music causes a fan of his later, dramatic scores to easily enjoy his earlier jazz score as well.

		In their ongoing work of releasing the music of Georges Delerue, Disques Cinemusique has thrown a little twist into the mix.
		Delerue has either selected suites to represent each score, or, in the case of a short work such as L'Atalante, recorded practically the entire score.
		Delerue conducts the Madrid Symphony Orchestra, and while the musicians are polished, there are minor flubs, especially in the first suite.

	George Delerue - film composer
		George Delerue is a composer who gained a vast amount of film composing experience over several decades.
		Delerue then worked on a number of Hollywood productions, winning an oscar for "A Little Romance" and gaining nominations for "Ann of a Thousand Days", "The Day of the Dolphin", "Julia" and "Agnes of God".
		As has happened with many other film composers, there are at least two instances where Delerue's music for a film was either largely or completely replaced and, perhaps coincidentally, they are not typical of the composer's romantic output.

		Georges Delerue was often described as France’s answer to John Barry, but comparison between these two giants of the film composing world is unfair as their styles are so different, although the end effect, a warm musical glow, is often the same.
		Georges Delerue’s career stretched over forty years, more than 300 scores, and two continents, as he was drawn to Hollywood in the late 1970s.
		For those that love Georges Delerue or those that enjoy their scores with a classical flavour, this album is a must.

	Joe Versus the Volcano (Soundtrack) by Georges Delerue
		The truth is that watching this movie for the first time is a little disturbing, because the essential thrust of the plot is that Joe has been diagnosed with a terminal illness, and thus, volunteers himself as a human sacrifice to appease an angry volcano on a little island--It’s fun, bring the family.
		Despite the genuine-though-initially misunderstood hilarity that ensues in the film—(we’ll bypass that for now)—one of the most striking elements of the film was its’ unabashedly romantic score by composer Georges Delerue.
		Thusly, Delerue closes off the album with a lyrical version of his love theme, “Marooned Without You”, a beautiful and non-intrusive vocal addition here, which, even if you don’t buy the sentimentality of the lyrics, you are buying the sentimentality of the orchestra behind them.

	Great Composers: Georges Delerue - Music from the Movies (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-30)
		There is no other composer in the history of film music who wrote such heartbreakingly beautiful scores like Georges Delerue did.
		In the late 80's, Varèse Sarabande and Delerue recorded three albums of suites and themes ('The London Sessions') and the majority of the tracks on 'Great Composers: Georges Delerue' are take from these CDs.
		Robert Townson choice for the opening number on the first disc is brilliant: Delerue's overlooked adagio for Oliver Stone's Platoon, a theme which was inspired by the director's temp track, Samuel Barber's 'Adagio for Strings', only to be ignored in the final version of the film in favour of the original Barber piece.
