The seminal 1989 miniseries The Women of Brewster Place was the first project produced by Oprah Winfrey, who was riding high on the success of her acting debut in The Color Purple and her hugely popular talk show. Directed by Donna Dietch, the two-part ABC event starred a “who’s who” of African-American actresses (including Winfrey, Cicely Tyson, Jackée, and Mary Alice), and grappled with controversial issues like abortion, rape, and lesbian relationships—garnering two Primetime Emmy nominations. Oscar-winning composer David Shire (The Conversation, All the President’s Men, Return to Oz) applied his cinematic chops to the miniseries, infusing it with a gospel-flavored score built around a main theme that turns heartbreak into triumph. This long-unreleased music was transferred from tapes in Shire’s own collection, and the release was overseen by the composer himself. Tim Greiving’s liner notes include new interviews with both Shire and Dietch. The album is available exclusively as a digital download through all major online retailers (iTunes, Amazon Music, Google Play, and more). Visit our website for track information and to purchase the album through your preferred service. (The digital booklet is available for free on the product page.) “That theme he composed…I just can’t picture Brewster without it,” says Dietch. “What it did for me emotionally, all these years later, was remarkable.” For more information about CineSonic Records, visit our website.
