Title Note

Original score composed by James Horner.

Recorded at TODD-AO Scoring Stage, Studio City, California.

An end title song sung by Celine Dion notwithstanding, TITANIC composer Horner's orchestral score for this Robin Williams vehicle (based on a story by sci-fi great Isaac Asimov) has very little in common with his Oscar-winning aquatic music. BICENTENNIAL MAN is more explicitly modernist (translation: an occasional dissonance can be heard), and the Celtic melodies are dispensed with, although the overall tone of the score is serenely romantic.

Actually, this harks back to some of Horner's earlier music; as a film composer, he cut his teeth on sci-fi flicks like BATTLE BEYOND THE STARS and STAR TREK II, and you can hear elements of those earlier works here. Interestingly, the main title--"The Machine Age"--is the wittiest and least characteristic bit of the score, with deliberate echoes of avant-garde composer George Antheil's Jazz Age Twenties masterwork "Ballet Mechanique (by the '50s, of course, Antheil himself wound up in Hollywood doing movie scores).
