This recent release of a score by one of our favorite composers is the 438th Soundtrack of the Week: Jagged Edge by John Barry.
The music on this alternates between a simple but affecting love theme and a chilly, suspenseful atmosphere.
The love theme is very simple but effective, and a good example of how well Barry can use strings as well as create haunting melodies. Piano is a prominent voice here and synth and choir are employed sparingly, adding to a gratifying balance of colors and textures.
