Music reviews of The Carl Stalling Project, Volume 2: More Music From Warner Bros. Cartoons 1939-1957
Music Review: Buy this with Vol. 1
Rating: 4 Stars
I don't feel that this volume is quite as effective as Vol. 1, but it is a must have either way. I strongly suggest buying both to complete the collection, as you will find that every Stalling composition stands out and it NEVER gets old. The following is the review I posted for Volume 1:
I cannot pass up the opportunity to express my love for this music. If you are familiar with the cartoons, then the music is in your bones. The images fly by in your imagination, and you may even recognize the specific scenes that were married to the pieces; but the goal of this compilation is not to make you think of the visuals - it is to illustrate the point of just how strong the music is on it's own merit, and how important this music is in American culture. When separated from the cartoons, it is now all too clear how diverse and talented the composer, Carl Stalling really is. He holds his own in the world of American modern classical composers, and this may just be the one of the first times in history we have heard such a range of genres pulled off with such ease and grace.
In the liner notes, we find out that the Warner Brother studio used for these cartoons was just one big room, and the music was created side-by-side with voice actors and artists. The energy is there all the way, and the music is eventful, to say the least. Beyond the ability to effectively hit you with character-action assossiation, the music will likely be found referred to by many generations down the road as some of the most inspirational and complex compositions to come from the U.S. at that time in history. This record should sit in the collection of any music or art historian, amateur or professional, as well as those who just enjoy a good laugh or thrilling ride. Do not pass this up.
