	Review: Lalo Schifrin (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
		Morrison found a joyful groove instantly with his trombone, Schifrin fell in deftly behind him on the keyboard of an enormous Yamaha grand, and Bromberg and Mason took the momentum into the international blue ribbon pace to which all these gents are accustomed.
		Schifrin's treatment of this warm-hearted theme enhanced it and honored it without cheapening it, a gift for which he is celebrated.
		Then they all laughed when Schifrin said he was going to play something from his score for "Bringing Down the House." But he wasn't kidding, and he and the group made merry with the TV-like theme in their elegant way.

		For one thing, Schifrin was able to place his own distinctive orchestral stamp more firmly upon these arrangements, sometimes reaching into his bag of tricks familiar to us from his film cues.
		Without leaving the Schifrin orchestral idiom for a minute, "Sketches of Miles" perfectly captures the brooding Miles Davis aura in a medley of some of his most winning records of the 1950s; "Begin the Beguine" is a combination of Hollywood flash and genuine jazz intrigue.
		Obviously Schifrin is into this concept for the long haul, refining and sharpening his fusion of two worlds.

		The work was originally intended to spotlight the soloists in Dizzy Gillespie's working quintet (with Schifrin on piano, Leo Wright on alto and flute, Art Davis on bass and Chuck Lampkin on drums) against the sterling backdrop of a richly textured brass section.
		Here, Schifrin is caught live at a 1996 concert with the quite capable WDR Big Band and in the worthy company of Jon Faddis on trumpet, Paquito D'Rivera on alto and Heiner on flute.
		Lalo Schifrin's diversity doesn't often bring him into jazz: This year alone, he's recorded in mostly classical contexts, composed scores for the upcoming films Tango and Something To Believe In and will coordinate a Three Tenors gala in July.

	THX 1138 Soundtrack - Lalo Schifrin
		Lalo Schifrin's soundtrack for THX 1138 is as far from John Williams's symphonic sweep for Star Wars as one can get, but Lucas's first musical collaborator proved to be no less imaginative than his most-used one.
		Schifrin provided an eclectic blend of styles, from Baroque-influenced choral work for the main titles, to liturgical cues, to brooding strings for the oppressive society, to the use of Bach's St. Matthew's Passion for the end credits.
		This premiere release of the THX 1138 soundtrack is a fascinating musical journey of Schifrin's score and source music, ranging from avant garde soundscapes to cheeky plays on his Latin jazz of the 60s.

		Heading to Cologne, Germany in June 1999 and utilizing the talents of the WDR Big Band, Schifrin redid all 11 of the LP's original tracks, commendably utilizing the sometimes dated Sixties sound and arrangements of the originals.
		Schifrin styled a clever alternative to the suggestion of computerized music by creating the lively jazz waltz that became the main theme.
		Indeed, Schifrin scored many of the season's shows and expertly provided for the show's increasing use of “source music” — the music heard in the background at bars, on stereos or from radios.

		Lalo Schifrin's sequel score is much of the same approach he took with RUSH HOUR, so fans of that effort will enjoy this follow-up.
		Lalo Schifrin is essentially a composer from another time - his action material is unique because it is influenced by the decades for which he has been writing music.
		Schifrin gets things back on track with "Parlor Fight" which is full of meaty brass attacks, lovely Asian woodwind figures and thrilling - and live - percussion.

		For the main title, Schifrin again used voices, "to establish a link between the originals Dirty Harry and the sequel." And while Harry's motif returned briefly, the killers of this film were denoted instead by military-style snare drums and synthesizer.
		Schifrin also turned the sad motif from the original Dirty Harry into a song, "This Side Of Forever," that was sung in the film by Roberta Flack.
		Eastwood the actor-director and Schifrin the pianist-composer clearly admire one another, and the results are audible in this collection of music from the three most popular Dirty Harry films.

		The album's very title promises to reveal the whole Schifrin, this icon of Brazilian bossa, who departs from the broad path of Latin music but never fails to pour fresh water on the mills of his native country's tapping rhythms.
		Even the very first number, "Secret Code Synthesizer" is experimental: this is probably the first attempt to create two-and-a-half minutes of music out of the electronically produced sound of a flute and the click-click-click of Indian tabla drums.
		In "Vaccinated Mushrooms" Schifrin proves that he is just as capable of musical parody as Frank Zappa.
