Dragon’s Domain Records presents music from the original score to TIME AFTER TIME, composed by the legendary Miklós Rózsa (BEN-HUR, KING OF KINGS, EL CID) for the 1979 science fiction thriller directed by Nicholas Meyer (THE DAY AFTER, STAR TREK II: THE WRATH OF KHAN), written by Karl Alexander, Steve Hayes and Meyer, starring Malcolm McDowell, Mary Steenburgen and David Warner.
TIME AFTER TIME starts with the premise that H.G. Wells actually constructed the time machine which he wrote about in his classic novel. TIME AFTER TIME is a romantic thriller in which Wells (McDowell), the scientific genius, tracks Jack the Ripper (Warner), the criminal genius, from 19th-century London to 20th-century San Francisco in order to bring the Ripper to justice. When Wells is transported in his time machine to modern San Francisco, he seems to be more of a babe in the woods than a sophisticated Victorian gentleman. What he finds is that some of his predictions have come true, while others, like a utopian society, have not...
Born in Budapest, Hungary in 1907, composer Miklós Rózsa studied the violin from the age of 5. While living in London in 1935, Rózsa was hired by legendary producer Alexander Korda to score his film, KNIGHT WITHOUT ARMOR. Later, while composing the music for another Korda production, THE THIEF OF BAGDAD, Rózsa moved to California, where he remained for the rest of his life. Throughout his film career, he worked in many genres but distinguished himself writing music for the film noirs of the 1940’s and the great costume epics of the 1950’s and 1960’s. A classically trained composer, Rózsa was well known for his dedication to researching the musical history of the time periods of the films he worked on. His filmography includes music composed for films such as THE THIEF OF BAGDAD, THE JUNGLE BOOK, DOUBLE INDEMNITY, SPELLBOUND, THE LOST WEEKEND, QUO VADIS, IVANHOE, JULIUS CAESAR, KNIGHTS OF THE ROUND TABLE, BEN-HUR, KING OF KINGS, EL CID, THE PRIVATE LIFE OF SHERLOCK HOLMES, THE GOLDEN VOYAGE OF SINBAD and TIME AFTER TIME, among others.
Originally released on vinyl by Entr'acte at the time of the film’s release, this presentation of the score is a rerecording produced by the composer and performed by the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra. Southern Cross would release this program later on compact disc in the early days of the format. In 2009, Film Score Monthly released a compact disc with the original film tracks for the first time.
Dragon’s Domain Records presents this new release of TIME AFTER AFTER, featuring the rerecording produced by the composer, newly remastered by James Nelson at Digital Outland and retaining the original album liner notes by director Nicholas Meyer and John Lasher. Following the original album program is a selection of bonus tracks of additional music composed by Miklós Rózsa, including music from PROVIDENCE, THE LOST WEEKEND, SPELLBOUND, THAT HAMILTON WOMAN and THE PRIVATE FILES OF J. EDGAR HOOVER.
