Michael Shapiro was commissioned in 2001 by The Chappaqua Orchestra’s Boris Koutzen Memorial Fund to write the soundtrack for the classic film Frankenstein (1931), directed by James Whale and starring Colin Clive and Boris Karloff. The world premiere of the work with live orchestra and film took place in October 2002 at the Jacob Burns Film Center of the Film Society of Lincoln Center in New York and since its premiere it has hosted more than 40 productions worldwide.
Unlike Bride of Frankenstein (1935), with its lush score by Franz Waxman, the original Frankenstein was produced without a score. Many critics, such as Leonard Maltin, have noted that Frankenstein badly needs music. Shapiro’s 70-minute soundtrack was written to play over the film’s dialogue. For modern moviegoers, Shapiro’s haunting music significantly heightens the film’s emotional impact.
