For the score of Munich, which tells the true story of the Israeli athletes massacred at the 1972 Munich Olympics by Palestinian terrorists, Steven Spielberg tapped longtime collaborator John Williams. From the outset, Williams summons a forlorn mood, nesting the haunting, wordless vocals of Lisbeth Scott in a bed of moaning strings on the ominous opening track, "Munich, 1972," and the equally atmospheric "Remembering Munich," reminiscent of a Kaddish (the Jewish prayer of mourning). At the heart of this thriller is the quest by a team of Israeli secret service agents, led by Avner (Eric Bana), to find and assassinate the terrorists. As such, Williams masterfully hits all the right notes -- subtle timpani and cello arrangements heighten the escalation of the pulse-racing "Letter Bombs," while a Hungarian zither intensifies the foreboding of "Stalking Carl." And even as the score is suffused with an appropriately heavy mood, Williams offers a glimmer of light via the melancholy string arrangements of "A Prayer for Peace" and the unbowed resolve underlying his strings-rich rendition of the Israeli national anthem, "Hatikvah" (The Hope). Williams's compassionate and character-driven score lies at the heart of this controversial film, another fine byproduct of his winning partnership with Spielberg.
