	AMZ - March 2000 - Jocelyn Pook
		Pook, a British composer most often described as "avant-garde," is best known right now for music that appears in Kubrick's movie "Eyes Wide Shut," but it was the music from her original album, "Deluge," that caught Kubrick's attention in the first place.
		Pook says of this album, "The main ideas...were born out of linking up the two millenia - the year 1000 and the year 2000 - by means of myth, legends and fears about the end of the world.
		Pook uses the keyboard under the voices of the singers in a way that reminds me of bagpipes.

		WHEN STANLEY KUBRICK telephoned the composer Jocelyn Pook to talk about the possibility of her working on the soundtrack to his new film, Pook was taking another call at the time.
		Pook is a self-taught composer who followed her studies in viola at the Guildhall with three years of touring with the Communards.
		Pook continues to write and to perform, both with the Electra Strings and in the group 3 or 4 Composers, who last year presented the stunning music-theatre piece Still Ringing.

	Classical Net Review - Pook - Flood
		Jocelyn Pook is no operatic diva crooning Gershwin and no pop star with classical pretensions.
		This happy accident has brought Pook's music to more people than would have heard it otherwise --- I know I would have been unlikely to encounter this CD had it not been for her sudden catapult to fame.
		Pook says she was inspired by the end of the millennium as she composed the original material --- not just this millennium, but the one 1000 years ago as well.

	Guardian Unlimited \| The Guardian \| Interview with composer and violinist Jocelyn Pook
		The first and most vexing question posed by Jocelyn Pook's music is "What is it?" "I don't really care what it's called," she says, sipping a cup tea in her Islington kitchen.
		Pook learned this painfully when her album Deluge, released in 1997, was disqualified not only from the classical chart, but also from the newly introduced "crossover" chart too.
		Pook is about to give live audiences the chance to judge for themselves by taking the new material out on her first UK tour, under the auspices of the Contemporary Music Network.

		An accomplished cellist and composer, Pook earned broad critical acclaim for her eclectic fusion of classicism and unorthodoxy (also her stock in trade as a string player and arranger for Peter Gabriel, PJ Harvey, Morrissey, and Siouxsie Sioux) in the music for Stanley Kubrick's Eyes Wide Shut.
		Pook's wild blends of seemingly everything under the sun may not be everybody's cup of tea, but it's bound to grab a lot of attention because nothing else in popular music comes close to approaching its thought-provoking oddness.

	Review: Eyes Wide Shut (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-12)
		Jocelyn Pook's compositions re-enforce the tone of every scene in which they are employed.
		And, while several of the pieces used here are lush, orchestral numbers (such as the one by Pook used during the orgy), those that create the strongest impression are the simple, discordant ones designed for the piano (credited to composer György Ligeti).
		As John Carpenter proved in Halloween, complexity is not always necessary to set the proper mood (and, strange as it may seem, elements of this score reminded me of Halloween's).

		Pook perfectly captures the film's beauty and menace in such themes as "The Dream", "Migrations" and especially (and most importantly), in the chilling theme, "Masked Ball".
		Jocelyn Pook's music in this scene -- hypnotic, frightening, and gorgeous -- does wonders for the effectiveness and power of this moment in the film, and is especially glorious when listened to through your headphones.
		Jocelyn Pook did write an orchestral score and only added a reversed voice on it.

		The Merchant of Venice is brought to life by the evocative music of highly-acclaimed composer Jocelyn Pook and the extraordinary voices of singing sensation Hayley Westenra and counter-tenor Andreas Scholl.
		Their extraordinary voices combine beautifully with Pook's sensual score; blending elements of Renaissance and Medieval music with exotic Eastern beats and sweeping cinematic themes.
		Andreas Scholl and Jocelyn Pook will be performing a medley from the soundtrack at the Royal Premiere of the film in London on the 29th November 2004 which will be attended by HRH Prince Charles and a galaxy of stars and will be in aid of The Prince's Trust.

	Avantgarde Music. Jocelyn Pook: biography, discography, reviews, links (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-12)
		Jocelyn Pook, a viola player who has accompanied famous rock and avantgarde musicians, has been successful in composing music for film, television, theatre and dance: for example, the 1994 dance piece Deluge (Virgin, 1997) and the 1999 soundtrack for Stanley Kubrick's "Eyes Wide Shut", Flood (Virgin, 1999).
		The Hebrew tradition that permeates several of these pieces is particularly strong in The Last Day and its accompaniment for string quintet, while a Persian hymn inspires the hypnotic psalm of Saints And Sinners and Calls Cries and Clamours juxtaposes Indian rhythms and western polyphony.
		Pook's multicultural fusion achieves a zenith of pathos in the poignant lament of Upon This Rock (with an "orchestra" of ten strings) and in the desperate threnody of Hell Fire And Damnation.

		Chris Isaak's "Baby Did a Bad Bad Thing" is a blast - and far and away the most accessible thing on this album (which is arguably the ultimate example of Kubrick's fickle and diverse musical tastes).
		After that, we have the original score by Jocelyn Pook.
		The two cues composed for the film - "Naval Officer" and "The Dream" - are haunting minimalist inventions, heavy on the strings, with solo players providing the melodic flow to accompany repeating ostinatos from the rest of the players.

		Now Jocelyn Pook, best known for scoring Stanley Kubrick's "Eyes Wide Shut," has joined the club, composing for Michael RadfordMichael Radford's sepulchral take on "The Merchant of Venice": a pensive, Renaissance-inflected score rooted firmly in modern sonorities.
		A 1983 graduate of London's Guildhall School of Music, where she studied viola, Pook has collaborated with Laurie Anderson, Massive Attack, Ryuichi Sakamoto and Peter Gabriel, forging a musical career that straddles boundaries -- which was just what Radford was seeking.
		Glancing at the list of instruments Pook required for this score is like traveling through musical history, with the composer using everything from psaltery, theorbo and sackbut to guitar, snare drum and double basses.
