Somewhere in Time

Sheet music. 1980. 3p.12.00x9.00. Music by John Barry. Christopher Reeve in a Rastar. From the motion picture: "Somewhere in Time" - Theme. PIANO SOLO MUSIC

While director Jeannot Szwarc's 1980 time-travel romance nearly drowned in a sea of its own bathos, the score of the Christopher Reeve/Jane Seymour vehicle has become something of a word-of-mouth classic. Chalk that status up to the great English composer John Barry, whose lushly romantic score has largely overshadowed the film it was written for. Note to Titanic fans: if you liked the score for that film, you may fall in love with (or to) this one as well. Ironically, much of the action of Somewhere in Time takes place in 1912, the year the Titanic sank. --Jerry McCulley
