Pan's Labyrinth - Surreal Fantasy Put To Music

Javier Navarrete's score to Guillermo Del Toro's Pan's Labyrinth does an excellent job of taking you into a surreal fantasy world. For those not familiar with the movie, the story centers upon the encounters of a young girl with unreal (or perhaps too real) fantastical creatures and worlds as she tries to cope with a harsh life that's more than any child should have to deal with. The score starts with a lullaby of sorts that is hummed by a child. The melody is soft with a hint of sadness and despair and it sets the tone for the entire score. While listening you can't help but be drawn into the music the way the main character is drawn into her fantastical encounters. And just like the movie, things don't go as planned as the fantasy turns harsher and more threatening. It's not all rough, as there are parts of the score that are quite tender, reflecting the relationship between the main character and her mother. But eventually life rushes in and tenderness and fantasy are quickly interrupted by harsh reality and the music takes a more brassy, percussive turn. Pan's Labyrinth is the first work I've ever heard by Navarrete and it shows that he can hold his own with the best of them. The score covers a lot of territory and does it quite well. This is one score not to miss.
