About this album
David Shire’s The Hindenburg is a tense, finely constructed 1975 soundtrack that gives the disaster film real dramatic weight. Written for Robert Wise’s historical thriller, the score blends modern orchestral writing, suspense cues and a memorable central theme to heighten both the film’s mystery and its mounting danger. Shire, already established as a versatile film composer, uses restrained motifs and sharper, more ominous passages to support the story’s investigative and political strands as well as the catastrophe itself. It stands as one of his most effective screen works and a strong example of 1970s American film scoring.
