Back in the days of the Silent Movie, local piano players tinkled the eighty eights in order to underscore the overacting and telegraph to the somewhat shellshocked audience what they should be feeling. The Heroine is on the railroad tracks, cue the diminished chords and make them tremble etc. Fast forward a few years and we observe the onset of the “Love Scene” and it’s natural partner, the saxophone. How this production music event happened is a mystery that will be reserved for film music anthropologists, but suffice it to say that the implied moaning in the boudoir was made real by the slinky woodwind gyrations and let us know with no uncertainty that yes, action was being got; your imagination did the rest. Time marched on, cinematic heroines got nuder and nuder, there was less to the imagination, yet still did the saxophone remain the production music instrument of desire. To this very day, low budget Lifetime flicks starring (insert fave heroine here; we’ll go with Eva Longoria for 800 Alex) maintain this hallowed tradition. Whether it’s a misty, female targeted, “he’s so wonderful I’ll give myself unto him and he’ll love me forever even though I stop taking care of myself” kind of thing or a downright Va-Va-Va-Voom strip-a-thon (that’s a lot of hyphens). The sexophone (no it’s not a typo-it’s a snarky play on words) will ever remain supreme as the instrument of Eros. Here are some perfect examples from our perfect production music library:
