Dec. 15th, 2017 02:45 pmAngelo Badalamenti's Soundtrack from Twin Peaks
by Clare Nina Norelli
This volume in the 33 1/3 series covers the haunting soundtrack to one of my favorite TV shows, Twin Peaks. Norelli gives a nice overview of Badalamenti's life and career and a lot of interesting detail about how he and Lynch collaborated on the music for the show. The other half of the book is a brief informative look at the music itself, how it is used in the TV show, and the ways in which it sets the mood and tone for scenes and characters. Being a big fan of the show, I really enjoyed this view of Twin Peaks through its music. I just wish the book had been a little longer so that Norelli could have included more scenes, particularly some of the one that I found most pivotal and affecting.
