Personnel: Romain Allender (programming). Audio Mixers: Kirsty Whalley; Peter Cobbin. Liner Note Author: Alexandre Desplat. Recording information: Abbey Road Studios, London; Olliewood Mix Room, London; Studio De La Grande Armee, Paris. Composer Alexandre Desplat's ninth Oscar-nominated film score, The Shape of Water is part suspense, romance, and whimsy befitting a fantasy-romance about a mute cleaning woman (Sally Hawkins) and a misunderstood captive of the secretive government facility where she works. Set during Cold War 1962, the original music has a sentimental mood that coexists seamlessly with licensed tracks by the likes of Glenn Miller ("I Know Why [And So Do You])" and Andy Williams ("A Summer Place"). The soundtrack also features Desplat at the piano with opera star Renee Fleming on the tear-stained ballad "You'll Never Know," the 1943 Academy Award winner for Best Original Song. Instrumentation that includes accordion, harp, and whistling color The Shape of Water's score, which also makes use of an orchestra, if with a restrained approach. With water featuring prominently in the film's plot and design, Desplat's woodwind section, for instance, consisted only of flutes, to better embody his idea of the sound of water. Lead character Elisa's theme is introduced with an accordion over delicate harp, flutes, and celesta that are eventually joined by strings and piano. More suspenseful passages include drums and lower-pitched instruments, with versions of arpeggiation and glissando also evoking water. Other preexisting songs incorporated into the film include Madeleine Peyroux's "La Javanaise," Carmen Miranda's "Chica Chica Boom Chic," and a 1956 version of "Babalu" by Caterina Valente and Silvio Francesco. Whether intentional or by unconscious influence, one may hear references to film composers from the era of the story's setting as well, including Mancini and Herrmann. ~ Marcy Donelson

時代背景が60年代前半ということだが極秘実験の水槽で飼われている不思議な生物との出会いから始まる究極のラブストーリーということで監督はギレルモ・デル・トロ。音楽担当はアレクサンドル・デスプラ。オープニングのタイトルバックで流れるテーマは口笛による哀愁漂うメロディ。10分以上に及ぶ緊迫感溢れる曲は圧巻。グレン・ミラー・オーケストラ、アンディ・ウィリアムス(SUMMER PLACE/夏の日の恋)の曲目も収録されている。デスプラの美しい旋律に堪能。
