专辑介绍：
30年代美国一个沙尘地区遭遇着严重的饥荒与干旱，一名18岁的男孩踏上了逃亡的旅程，他加入了神秘的嘉年华会，里头有塔罗牌算命师、通灵的老婆婆、一对连体婴…。2004年5项艾美奖得主【奇幻嘉年华】，正是他这一路经历的各种奇异精彩的人文与地理风景，一趟时代的史诗旅程，也是一名男孩对于人生、信仰、价值的蜕变和发现。
HBO's pioneering series takes the dark carnival gambit of Ray Bradbury's Something Wicked This Way Comes, drops it in the bleak heartland of Dust Bowl-era America and jolts it with a compelling undercurrent of Biblical apocalypse. That's no easy dramatic flux to musically evoke, but veteran TV composer Jeff Beal graces the show with cues that seamlessly fuse Appalachian folk traditions with a brooding, goth-inspired ambient gloom. The anxious solo fiddle of the show's theme is a repeating motif, one the composer uses to variously evoke melancholy ("Dora Mae's Funeral"), bittersweet romance ("Rita Sue and Jonesy") or supernatural wonders ("Ben Heals the Girl"). Beal's use of mournful solo horn (as on "Mark of the Beast") often heralds the show's undercurrent of Biblical doom, while his hesitant, haunting piano passages seem to hang in the air for eternity. The evocative cues here stand in stark contrast to the oft-quirky jazz cool of the composer's Emmy-winning work on Monk, ample tribute to Beal's masterful abilities to channel his musical instincts into even the most diverse dramatic material.
