ABOUT THE ALBUM


OXBLOOD RED 180g VINYL. F. W. Murnau's iconic expressionist silent horror film "Nosferatu" (1922) is a loose retelling of the Dracula story, largely set in the fictional German town of Wisborg in 1838. Struck by the film's artistry and visual beauty, pianist and composer Tom Roberts set about writing a new musical score to celebrate the film's 100th anniversary. Feeling that the film deserved something more nuanced than the typical "scary" music often assigned to it, Roberts drew inspiration from early German Romantic composers like Schumann, Schubert, and Brahms, as well as from traditional Romanian music to plunge the audience into the shifting worlds of "Nosferatu." Not merely typical "silent movie music," the result is a melodic impression of the film that stands fully on it's own; a swirling, musical fantasy of love and loss, tinged with the darkness of gothic horror. 17 tracks. 40 minutes. Also available in CD format. Tom Roberts toured for many years as pianist with Leon Redbone, played with Vince Giordano's Nighthawks in New York, performed on Garrison Keillor's public radio program A Prairie Home Companion, and arranged music for films like Martin Scorcese's The Aviator.
