Description
The original soundtrack album to the
iconic 1968 Stanley Kubrick film by the
same name. Known for its use of many
classical and orchestral pieces, it is credited
for giving many classical compositions
resurgences in popularity.
From very early in production, Kubrick
decided that he wanted the film to be a
primarily nonverbal experience that did
not rely on the traditional techniques of
narrative cinema, and in which music would
play a vital role in evoking particular moods.
The film is notable for its innovative use of
classical music taken from existing commercial
recordings. In the early stages of production,
Kubrick had actually commissioned a score
for 2001 from Hollywood composer Alex
North, but during postproduction, Kubrick
chose to abandon North’s music in favor of
the now-familiar classical pieces.
The soundtrack was a commercial success,
reaching the 24th spot on the Billboard 200.
