NEW RELEASE:
BATMAN: MASK OF THE PHANTASM – ORIGINAL MOTION PICTURE SOUNDTRACK LP
Having previously conducted and provided additional orchestration for 1989’s BATMAN, Danny Elfman collaborator Shirley Walker became one of the featured composers for BATMAN: THE ANIMATED SERIES, a groundbreaking crime saga that redrew the boundaries of longform animated storytelling. Emmy nominated for one of her numerous episodes of work on the show, Walker was also tasked with creating a new main theme for the Caped Crusader that was used in later B:TAS episodes.
Originally conceived as a made-for-TV movie, the cult classic BATMAN: MASK OF THE PHANTASM was released in theaters on Christmas Day 1993, between Seasons 1 and 2 of the series. Beautifully plotted and animated, MASK OF THE PHANTASM needed a blockbuster score to match, and Walker delivered her masterpiece ... an operatic, film noir-inspired tour de force that booms, swoons and soars through the dark Gotham night.
