Stanley Kubrick - Complete ballroom music used for 'The Shining'
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 1 июн 2024
- For the sound-track of his horror film, 'The Shining', director Stanley Kubrick used above all classical music, composed by Bartók, Penderecki, and Ligeti. However, for a few memorable scenes he also used four - more or less - 'jazzy' songs, which sound quite old-fashioned nowadays but were very popular in the early thirties (1931-1934), apparently, mainly in England. These old hits, in their original versions, have been gathered together in this video, the frames of which are taken from the scenes where the songs can be heard. That is:
1/ [00:00] Masquerade (by Jack Hylton and his Orchestra - singer: Pat O'Malley);
2/ [02:00] Midnight, the Stars and You (by Ray Noble and his Orchestra - singer: Al Bowlly);
3/ [05:30] It's All Forgotten Now (by Ray Noble and his Orchestra - singer: Al Bowlly);
4/ [08:51] Home (by Henry Hall and his Gleneagles Hotel Band - singer: Maurice Elwin).

The music for the Red Bathroom was the most difficult part of the music editing I did for The Shining. I think I presented Stanley with no more than about 4 pieces that would work with the scene and he then picked the 2 we used. I then spent at least three days (working through the night) to get the music to work exactly right with the scene. Stanley wanted the music to by quite loud, which gave me huge problems with the lyrics of the songs clashing with Jack and Grady's dialogue. It was an immensely tricky job, getting most of the words from the songs to fit between their lines of dialogue. I also then went full out for irony (which Stanley loved and a lot of people seem to miss).
Thank you so much, Gordon Stainforth, for the invaluable information you gave about your collaboration with Stanley Kubrick when he was directing The Shining!
You did a phenomenal job Mr. Stainforth.. if I may be so bold, Sir.
Incredible to hear, Gordon. I highly appreciate your work. The red bathroom scene is my favorite scene in the film. The music complements it so well!

The second one is pure gold
It really is👌
@@year1spiderman979 This movie is underrated gem i love the Doctor Sleep movie but not as much as this one
Pun intended or unintended?
Al Bowlly’s music is amazing. He was also the artist who created the song, heartaches, which was actually featured in the Caretaker’s “Everywhere at the End of Time” album.
The third one too
But sir, you've always been the caretaker

The beauty of this movie is the whole Hotel is Creepy. But that's the brilliance of Kubrick. In the hands of a lesser director,it could have been a lesser Movie.
This makes me want to party with some 1920's ghosts.
Me too.
I like your style.
+David Ellis hello Lloyd, little slow tonight ain't it? Hahahahah
Yes it is Mr. Torrance,
what will it be?

Very very festive : )
Delbert Grady the best party I've never been to
It takes a real commitment to have a username and photo of the characters. Hats off to you both. Maybe my picture needs a little talking to. Perhaps a bit more. Maybe I need to correct it, if you don't mind me saying so.
You are the caretaker, Mr. Cana Dude. You've always BEEEEN the caretaker.
Grady?

You'll find me in the gold room

You still alive, bud?
@@Ilovemath1234 I'm sure he is
Just did some research and found out that al bowlly the singer of the middle two songs was killed during the blitz in 1941 after performing in London, somehow makes his songs seem even more ghostly to me
And now the fact Al bowlly's "Heartaches" was used for an album about Dementia.
SHAME AL WAS KILLED WHEN A AERIAL BOMB EXPLODED AS HE WAS ABOUT TO LEAVE THE ROOM. THE DOOR EXPLODING AND HITTING HIM IN THE HEAD AND FACE SHAME. GOD BLESS HIM RIP
@@potato1907 the album was inspired by the ballroom music from the shining as well
@@potato1907 but before I corrected him.
@@ralphgar3690 no worries, I corrected the pilot that dropped that bomb.
It's no coincidence that the artist 'The caretaker' also used distorted ballroom music like Al bowlly to creat his magnus opus 'Everywhere at the end of time' May the ballroom lay eternal, c'est fini
I came here because that haunting album reminded me of The Shining. What a masterpiece “Everywhere at the end of time is”.
I’m pretty sure he sampled all of these songs in EATEOT
@@austinfalvey5782 He actually did 3 of them in earlier albums, Selected Memories from the Haunted Ballroom and A Stairway To The Stars
I'm 74, but I still have great childhood memories of my mother's 78 rpm record collection, which included my grandmother's. Ray Noble's wonderful band & Al Bowlly. Great song! Midnight, The Stars and You
DID U SEE THIS movie in 1980 ?
I went on CD Universe and bought three volumes of Ray & Al a few years back. Great, great stuff!
Hi
I saw this movie in 1980. The day after it first opened. I liked it but not that much. As I grow older, though, it's one of my favorite horror movies.
Kirke, I think this is one of those stories that the more you watch it the more you "See". Such a cool (though unsettling) movie and story.
I always think the, happy go lucky, 1920s/30s art deco period tunes, that echo through the walls and rooms really makes the atmosphere of the film, so creepy and earie, like this happy music is just a disguise for all the grissly thoughts and actions by the inhabitants of the hotel.
Theres a haunting expectation of menace hanging heavy in the air, walls and very fabric of the building.
This reminds me of The New Ocean House in Swampscott, MA in 1968. (a huge hotel on the Atlantic coast.) Fifty years ago. I was eighteen years old and worked there part time as a bus boy during weekends during that summer. What a fantastic experience. It was everything that the Overlook was and more because it was built in the eighteen hundreds with all it's Victorian elegance. I recall one night after everyone had left the dance, an older couple were still in the red velvet draped ballroom under the crystal chandeliers dancing to their favorite song. The band had stayed just for them. Somehow, I could never forget that. The next year, the place burned to the ground.
Damn
Shut 0_0
Why did it burn down?
@@AD-eg9cw a fire.
How sad!
Grady: "My girls didn't care for the Overlook at first. One of them actually stole a pack of matches and tried to burn it down but I corrected her. And when my wife tried to prevent me from doing my duty... I corrected her."
I thought you were good Victor but you're not good. You're just another lying old dirty birdy and I don't think I'd better be around you for awhile.
Jack Torrance: "You a married man, Mr. Grady?"
Delbert Grady: "Yes, sir, I am. I have a wife and two daughters."
Jack Torrance: "And, where are they now?"
Grady: Oh, they’re somewhere around, I’m not quite sure at the moment, sir.
Jack (internally): "Oh fuck-"
@@memali2939 Jack: (takes cloth from Grady) “Mr. Grady, you were the caretaker here, I recognize ya. I saw your picture in the newspapers, you uh, chopped your wife and daughter up into little bits, and then, then you blew your brains out.”
I'll soon be writing a book about my time in the film industry. And particularly working with Stanley Kubrick on The Shining, and my work in choosing and editing the music.
Oh my god? Really?
Gordon Stainforth are you real?
Name checks out, providing he is who he says he is. www.imdb.com/name/nm0821586/
did you?
Gordon Stainforth is your book done I’d love to read it
Been to Colorado last year, could not miss the chance to check the Stanley Hotel in Estes Park, drove all the way from Denver playing these melodies in my head! What a day!!!
I went to the "Overlook Hotel" (actually, the Timberline Lodge on Mt. Hood) several years ago. Pretty awesome.
I was in Colorado and I was privileged to visit that Hotel.
Love the profile pic man
I think Kubrick must have a real soft spot for 20s and 30s music, especially some of those famous dance-bands.
He was born in 1928, so it would have been the kind of music his parents would play. The way you hear it in the shining, as a distant echo from the next room, I bet that's how it sounded to him, alone in his room while his parents listened to it in the kitchen
Imagine somebody from 2010s go on to be a film maker and use songs of this era. Makes me laugh.
Lovely music to this day!!
finest yatchman ?? How is that funny?? Moron
Midnight, the stars and you is one of my favourite pieces of music ever; in the context of the fantastic film The Shining its such a melancholy and sad piece; makes me wish I had lived in the 20s, old, glorious lost times........
If you like old movies that reflect that time, check out Modern Times and The Gold Rush. You won't be disappointed.
you will live in the 20s few years from now, there will be new posibilities ;) (time machine may be one of them :D)
Actually, those songs were from the 1930s, but I know what you mean.
ralucagymnast Ugh hell no! Woman didnt shave down there in the 20's...
ralucagymnast Maybe you DID live in the '30's?
AL Bowlly singing (Hauntingly Beautiful)
+John H Very Beautiful: )
John H - Al Bowlly's greatest number was 'Blue Moon' recorded at Radio City, New York, in 1935.
So trippy! It always gave me a big sense of claustrophobia to go from the big palatial ballroom to that little bathroom. It's color sets off alarms too about the direction this little trip is taking.
+Yapostadodat
excellent writing skills
Its weird to see a huge fancy ballroom/bar to a target bathroom
LOVE TO GO BACK TO THE 30.s AND DANCE AGAIN AS WE USED TO. THANK YOU FOR THE MEMORY OF MY YOUTH. :):):)
For those who may remember him, Masquerade is sung by the actor also known as J. Pat O'Malley: a short, stubby Irishman who became one of the best-known character actors in Hollywood -- after a career as a very good singer (ditto William Frawley). Bandleader/composer/actor Ray Noble and Al Bowlly, the original crooner, were both huge in Britain and the U.S., at their peaks in the 30s. Bowlly was truly exceptional and worth searching for here. Noble's song 'The Very Thought of You' was most recently recorded by Tony Bennett with Paul McCartney. They may be forgotten, but they are not gone!
My friend said he didn’t like the Shining. I looked at him with a grin... “oh I’m not gonna hurt ya, I’m just gonna BASH YOUR BRAINS IN!”
And then you corrected your friend.

People who say The Shining was overrated are just Stephen King fanatics who can’t admit Kubrick made a flawed novel into a cinematic masterpiece.
what do those classless idiots know about the great cinema? SITTING HOME EATING WHITE BREAD WITH MAYONNAISE AND COFFEE TOO. PHONY ASS SO-CALLED INTELECTS HA KISS ASS
Maybe both are good, actually.
I love SK, apparently he complained about Wendy being played as a 'frail' character when he wrote her as a strong woman (which he did). However, I think this was brilliant on Kubrick's part. There are essays online on why this was a brilliant artistic choice.
*SPOILERS* when I read the novel I was quite disappointed to see that there were no twins.
@@ralphgar3690 calm down alexie
I held the tape recorder to the tv and recorded these tunes,particularly "Its all forgotten now".Loved them then and still do now.Sad all those who were young then,my Grandparents generation born around 1910 are all gone now.
Very soothing if you ask me. I have come to really enjoy some of these early tracks and pieces of music from the early half of the 20th century. For some reason it has this nostalgic feeling to them. Regardless of of the fact I wasn't born during that time It still holds a special place in my heart.
I know what you mean. I didn't think i would ever listen to 30's music but after watching the Shining, it made me want to listen to it. Good music is timeless.
Al bowlly is everything
02:00
Sounds so normal and so freaky at the same time.
Jack Nicholson is the protagonist in this film. He really stirs things up to make the movie frightining. Something i admire about him.😀
Whenever I'm studying, I'll listen to music like this. It really helps me concentrate, even more than classical music.
Reminds me of attending many times back in the day, the International Debutant Christmas Ball in New York held at the Waldorf - Astoria. Music was played by Lester Lanin and his band who was famous in his own right. Lester often played at parties held at homes in Newport, RI and Oyster Bay, NY, always handing out green beanies with his name embroidered for everyone to wear. Actually sad today that people years ago seemed to know how to party, dress up and dance to good music sung by people like Al Bowlly. Times change, but not for the better. Ship travel too on oceanliners was entirely different than the circus ships that "cruise" today. There's one old grand liner left, the SS United States I once sailed on that played this music in it's ballroom, now setting idle in Philadelphia. Those were the days!
“Home” by Henry Hall was mastered by me, Keith Gooden and Geoff Milne for the compilation, “And the bands played on” Decca DDV5001/2. Released 1977. Brian Rust was involved as it was to support Sid Colin’s book and tv series if the same name. This son was never released until 1977 so I know it’s our version. That and a little of the surface noise we couldn’t get rid of. It’s so clear because we used vinyl plates stamped from the original studio cuts. Direct to disc was used in the thirties. Tape recording hadn’t been developed then. We cleaned them up and decclicked them as the storage of the stampers wasn’t always very good and mould and dust caused audible issues on the plates. The version extant on recent releases is swamped in echo. The original OST had our version, credited to Decca. ATBPO was rereleased on license in 200, but there are loads of the original double album available on eBay.
that's awesome! thanks for this comment!
One of this songs, was in the DLC for Bioshock Infinite, Burials at Sea
Timoshinka R.I.P Yeah, i really enjoyed that moment
I think Nicholson's madness wasn't acting - he was really mad with Kubrick as he caused takes to be repeated more than a hundred times!!
Kubrick might have brought it out more but I think Jack is genuinely a little crazy or eccentric.
Crazy like a fox.
No. He is a superior ACTOR. But all the best characters tend toward their own madness; Jack fits well. {See the horror movie of a different kind, "Carnal Knowledge"}
Yes Kubrick was able to manipulate his cast so well and got the ones he needed to be crazy angry to make it more real. Also Nicholson was given grilled cheese as his only food because he hates it the most
Poor Shelley.

Thanks to Stanley and all the composers that made this possible. When music was music.
its truly beautiful to see so many people here still after 12 years coming back to this wonderful soundtrack.
Kubrick not only had the skill to make legendary films, but his choice of music was perfect.
All these songs are amazing! I'm a 21 year old obsessed with everything from the 1900's-1960's, lol.
@jackowozere the name of the first song is (Jack Hylton and his Orchestra - Masquerade)
That is TOTALLY awesome! Don't ever lose that...and don't ever be ashamed of it!
I'm 36 and I have my grandfather to thank for my musical tastes, and they haven't changed much since I was a child. While my friends were listening to the latest 80's bands the times, I was listening to stuff like this. One of the first songs my grandfather ever introduced me to was "Mister Sandman", but the Chordettes. Awesome song!
***** same here i'm 19 and i love classic music none of the crap on radio today catches my ear

Those red walls in the bathroom are a hit. Why don't we see such things in real life?

How to turn a melodic and nostalgic oldie into a force of Evil, by S.Kubrick
"Whatever you say lloyd, whatever you say! :}"
*Anything ; )
I've been here sir, I've always been here.
One of the all time great movies.
I couldn't love this music more if I tried. The only downside is, it makes my heart ache even more than it already does...sigh
makes your heart ache? .. this frigging song ( especially) scares the living shit out of me. The sheer genius of Kubrick to take something so banal as a typical song from the mid 30's and associate it with a very frightening movie. I can't listen to this song without getting really creeped out
Why is it, do you think, that the hotel tempted Jack Torrance with the music and sights and delights of THAT era, and not another? The hotel's history was long, many eras could have been chosen to tempt him. But, I believe, it was Jack's life that was banal...not the desires of his heart...not the music Kubrick chose...the character of Jack Torrance longed to be somewhere where his talent and perspective was appreciated. He longed to be where life was romantic and full of indulgences, without constraints. The music of this era is hardly banal, it is loaded to the gills with romance and love and desires of the heart. The Gold Room was full of potential and unlimited possibilities. Jack wasn't tempted by a ghostly remnant from his own time,or by a disco club! Kubrick choose the music that would have lulled Jack FROM banality into a 'golden' world. I agree, Kubrick was genius, I've always thought so. But I am able to separate the music from my love of this movie also. Cheers!
***** I didn't necessarily mean to imply that the music, itself, was banal but rather that the music was very typical of it's time. I was not downplaying the composer, the arrangement or the musicianship but more so that for the time period the scene was depicting, that song probably was very similar to others at the time but what Kubrick did to associate something typical with something very creepy and ghastly is genius just as Hitchcock did with the movies he directed. After seeing some Hitchcock films, one never viewed a shower with such banality again .. or a least for a time shortly after viewing Psycho
It makes my hearth ache also, romantic music,sensual, sentimental,those were the days.
I know where you're coming from. It brings back memories of when I was a kid and working at The New Ocean House in Swampscott, Ma in 1968. The next year it burned to the ground. What a great experience to work at a big hotel built in the 1800s. It certainly brings you back in time.
Kubrick did a good job exposing these old artists to a modern audience. Same with the composers he used in his films(Ligeti, Penderecki, Bartok), I'm not sure I'd even be aware of their music if it weren't for Kubrick.
literally had the biggest emotional whiplash when I heard the first few notes in the first song
"Ghostly" is the word that captures the effect that this music has on the movie.
Choosing 20's music was perfect to give the "outdated" feeling to what was happening: just one more oddity!
The music gives a bittersweet emotion because it is basically "dead music:" music that represents a dead past,
but at the Overlook, there is no past, no present, no future.
No Words to discribe such a masterpiece.
Just saw Doctor Sleep....went home and watched The Shinning...amazing the detail in recreating the interior of "The Overlook Hotel"...same carpets, photos on the walls, etc. Supposedly, they built the set in England somewhere (although it certainly looks like a real hotel interior) for the original movie. The set in Doctor Sleep is eerily (almost exactly) the same as in The Shinning....wow....what a mind-blowing movie(s).
The actual Overlook Hotel set was in Colorado.
Stanley Picked Some Great Songs to Bring To Life The 20s and 30s!!!!....My Parents Lived in this Era....I Heard Some of These When Thay Played Them....My Dad Always Said U Would Love My Era.... Music 🎵🎶 Was Always Played In Our House 🏠
WOW!! even though the movie itself is a horror film, this was seriously one of the BEST medleys I have listened to. It was a long video, but 4 songs in one makes it all the more creative :) I will one day dance to this medley with someone..also since it is ballroom music!
"No charge? Well I'm the kinda guy that likes to know who's buying their drinks Lloyd."
"Thats not the matter that concerns you Mr. Torrance, at least not at this point."
"Whatever you say Lloyd, whatever you say."
I can listen to this over and over and never make me a dull boy.
I would love to see the Ahwahnee Hotel at Yosemite National Park which the interior of the Overlook was modelled after.
many in this generation including the artist died in WWII. its a forgotten music.
Great Soundtrack.
Perhaps they need a good talking to, if you don't mind my saying so. Perhaps... a bit more.
Maybe they need to get... corrected

Takes me back to my grandparents house which had that slightly stale odour that smelt of days gone by with all the 1920s/30s art deco furniture.These haunting melodies of better days would always be echoing around the walls in a muffled way in the rooms,always took me back to those days like a time machine.

All anachronistic for when Jack would have been present at the 1921 ball in the final shot of the film. The music dates throw me for a real loop. Was Jack alive til that time? Or was he one of the caretakers that went mad?

Like many thousands of other's, I bought this excellent recording, immediately after watching this fantastic, Iconic film. Unfortunately , it doesn't have that wonderful 'ambience' that the film gave it. The reverberation from that huge hall, and the soft adage of people in intimate conversations.

These songs have a haunting feel to them.
It remains a mystery to most of us why Kubrick did not note the musicians for their work in the final credits in "The Shining".
It's like how Kubrick wasn't going to give credit to the author of the book that Full Metal Jacket. Kubrick even threatened to pull the film out of production, but, eventually he gave in.
He didn’t obtain rights to use much of the music, which is why the soundtrack lp was only in print for a short time.

Such music is Eternal and plays Eternally in the Ethereality Zones and The Great Elysium Elysian Feilds.

"... my thoughts are ever wending home."
"Wendy, I'm home."
One wonders why, on its surface, this is such a haunting, compelling film after so many decades, with no sign of declining popular fascination. No one can point to anything or combination of things in "The Shining" which account for its perennial allure. Many viewers continue to watch it time after time. What is this movie telling generations of people they find so entrancing? Answers appear to lie in its mood, but that's an unfocused, elusive hypothesis. As horrific as the irrevocable past is stated by Kubrick, his version of it seems highly attractive, even nostalgic for persons born many years after the 1920s. My only suspicion for such an engaging mystique may have something to do with the film's lighting and color. That's no answer, however. Perhaps you have a better one.
"It's All Forgotten Now" works very well over images and video of old tornado damage. If you can sync it up, it works very well... try these... Omaha, NE Tornado- 1913, St. Louis, MO Tornado- 1927, Gainesville, GA tornado- 1936, and Albany, GA tornado- 1940 (Start the Albany, GA video at 0:35).

It's a mystery why Kubrick didn't include any credits for this music in the end titles of the film. Instead we get "Hairstyles by Leonard" prominently displayed.

ALSO IF ANY OF THE ORIGINAL COPYRIGHT OWNERS WERE STILL AROUND AT THE TIME , KUBRICK COULD HAVE CLEARED RIGHTS WITH THEM FOR A SMALL FEE , THAT COULD HAVE AND SHOULD HAVE BEEN INCLUDED IN HIS MAKING OF A SECOND L.P. DISC IN THE ORIGINAL SOUND TRACK ALBUM ! IT WAS AN INSULT ! THAT HE OMITTED THEIR NAMES FROM THE CLOSING FILM CREDITS ! JUST UNFORGIVABLE !
+Daathaan I'M SORRY ! BUT THERE CERTAINLY WAS A NEED TO CREDIT IT EVEN IF THE COPYRIGHT RAN OUT ! SUPPOSE IT WAS YOUR WORK , THAT WASN'T CREDITED , DON'T YOU THINK THAT YOU WOULD MIND ? ?
Kubrick hadn’t obtained proper rights for much of the music used in the film, which is why the soundtrack lp was only available for a very short time. Midnight, the Stars, and You was also not included in the official soundtrack lp, nor was It’s All Forgotten Now and several of the Penderecki pieces.
Bella la scena quando va indietro nel tempo al bar.❤️❤️
What a beautiful group of music. I would probably be in the same state of mind as Jack if this were played all of the time. Here's to another great year!
The Gold Room is also one of my favorite scenes. I really liked the way the Gold Room was designed

Just watched this movie today and oh my gosh was it a masterpiece this music just fits the movie so perfectly
Masterful cinematography. Hats off to the true artists of the World.
At 4:09 the woman seated in the background in the middle of the shot is the old woman in the bathtub.
and yet the roaring period still going strong ...
WONDERFULLY evocative of the ballroom... I always wanted to be there among the guests in that scene... the reverb adds to the grandness of the ballroom as well...
Except all those People are Dead, and you are stuck there for all Eternity, with an Unlimited supply of Alcohol.
