While Orson Welles often had trouble in his dealings with producers and studio executives, he usually attracted the highest calibre of artistic collaborator, who would often turn in their best work for an Orson Welles film. This certainly was the case with Henry Mancini??s score for Touch of Evil, even though Welles didn??t choose him for the job, or even confer with him about the use of music in the movie. As Mancini relates in this excerpt from his autobiography Did They Mention the Music?, he was simply assigned to the picture by Joesph Gershenson, the head of the music department at Universal. Mancini then visited the set to observe Welles at work, but only met the director briefly, apparently when Welles was still working on his first cut of the picture.
However, Mancini??s creative juices were still very much inspired by Welles, since the director had already written several memos to Joseph Gershenson explaining where and what type of music he wanted included in his movie. Unfortunately, by the time Mancini was actually composing the score, Welles was no longer a welcome presence on the Universal lot. As Welles later explained to Peter Bogdanovich: ??The music, which I didn??t have anything to do with, was, I thought, quite well done. But I wasn??t there as I would normally be??like a mother hen, on every note.??
It??s also interesting to note that Mancini??s Touch of Evil music was issued as his first movie soundtrack album, although by the time it appeared in record stores in late 1958, the film had already long been gone from movie theaters. -wellesnet.com
