    • Greatly expanded original soundtrack from action-packed Chuck Norris sequel! Younger brother Aaron Norris directs, Lee Reynolds scripts, Chuck leads with able support from John P. Ryan, Paul Perri, Richard Jaeckel, Billy Drago, Cannon Films presents. South American drug cartels are the targets of Norris and team with murder, corruption and vengeance in tow. Frederic Talgorn approached the violent tale with an interesting twist: Electronics and percussion color the suspense, locale and grim elements while full-blooded symphony orchestra plays for the heroics, adding muscle to key sequences. Budgetary needs made the trade between orchestra and synthesizers a necessity but Talgorn made the most of both ensembles. Strings in tragic, minor-key mode bring pain to “Bobby Finds Dead Family”, rousing orchestral dazzle dazzle plays for energetic training sequences (“The Bear Pit”, “Training Montage”), strings alone with emphasis on extreme registers offer intensity to “Hector And Bobby Die”, orchestra and electronics meld for soaring launch to “Chuck Parachutes In”. Action highlight: ten minute “The Chase”, with riveting synthesizers propelling the music into and out of the deadly high-speed action scene. Hang on! Yet another element of Talgorn’s score is the exotic color of ethnic flute over percussion and synths spotlighting the mountain and jungle backdrops, particularly a perilous cliff-climbing sequence. Talgorn leads with a heroic fanfare-theme in bright major keys, using it judiciously until the Delta Force tackle the enemy in climactic combat. Highlighting this layer of the music is the second portion of the lengthy “Stranglehold Is A Go”. Three years after the film opened, a 39-minute soundtrack was released, produced by the composer in two lengthy suites, one of just orchestra highlights, the other of electronic sequences, plus the closing song written by Talgorn with Harriet Schock. To present the entire 76-minute score on CD 1, Intrada went back to the original Dolby SR-encoded two track mix masters made by engineer Doug Botnick (brother of legendary scoring mixer Bruce Botnick). CD 2 offers the 1993 program as edited and produced by the composer. All master elements were vaulted by MGM in pristine condition. Informative notes by Daniel Schweiger, colorful flipper booklet cover design by Kay Marshall. Orchestral score recorded in Paris, France. Frederic Talgorn conducts Orchestre Symphonique D’Europe. Intrada Special Collection 2-CD set available while quantities and interest remain!

    • Tech Talk From The Producer… The Soundtrack for Delta Force 2 was originally issued in 1993, three years after the film opened, by the German film music label Alhambra. That release contained 39 minutes of music, neatly presented in two lengthy suites—one orchestral, one synthesized— plus the closing song. While the suites were not presented in film sequence and also omitted a lot of music, they offered a rewarding listening experience, prepared for film music fans by composer Frederic Talgorn himself.

      That original 1993 program appears with this Intrada release on CD 2, just as Talgorn produced and assembled it back in the day. CD 1 of our presentation allows the listener an opportunity to enjoy the entire score (including 35 minutes of previously unreleased music) in chronological order. The experience is especially rewarding in that it reveals the architecture of Talgorn’s exciting music as a whole. Several ideas are presented, both in the synthesizer cues and in the orchestral sequences. Hearing the material as it weaves in and out between the robust colors of an orchestra and the more focused tones of the synthesizer performance makes for great contrast while still being highly cohesive, especially when the thematic elements are so unified throughout both idioms. It’s a polished score, anchored by an exciting main theme and layered with numerous other motifs throughout: the rousing action music, including a spectacular synthesized “Chase” cue, the austere but still very tonal writing surrounding Chuck Norris’ perilous mountain climb, the ethnic colors underscoring the villain Cota, a dramatic line for Bobby and chopping and muscular “give-and-take” music for the exciting “Bedroom Brawl.”

      To present the entire score, Intrada went back to the Dolby SR-encoded two-track stereo mix masters prepared by Doug Botnick at Pacifique Recording Studios in North Hollywood and vaulted by MGM in pristine condition. There is just one detour from the exact picture chronology: the two exciting Delta Force training sequences, built from identical motivic material, appear back-to-back in the film. We have simply placed the first of those two pieces at the start of CD 1, avoiding the motivic material literally playing twice in a row and also affording a much stronger opening than what is otherwise a series of very low-key synthesized cues that begin the score in the film.

      This is a rough and rugged mission on which Chuck Norris and company embark. Sign up with Frederic Talgorn and be a part of the Delta Force musical support!
