Death of a Salesman recording?   Message List  
Reply | Forward Message #117 of 156 |

I'm trying to find a recording of the music from Arthur
Miller's "Death of a Salesman" - as composed by Alex North.

He first composed it for the Broadway play that premiered in 1949,
and then I believe the same music was transferred over to the 1951
film version starring Fredric March.

There is a much more well-known film, done for TV in the 80s with
John Malkovich & Dustin Hoffman - and North also composed a slightly
altered score for that version, as well, as far as the research I can
find tells me.

However, I cannot find a stand-alone recording of any of this music.
There are the films, of course (the earlier hasn't even be released
on VHS or DVD, it's so unpopular) - but I'm not interested in those
films per se, just the music.

Might anbody be able to help me out, direct me where to go, if it
exists at all?

... Heh, I'd love to get a hold of that, fortunately there's a DVD out of the 80's film, that's the best I've got of this masterpiece score....
