Giger, most famous in popular culture as the artist behind the original alien design in Ridley Scott's phenomenal 1979 feature Alien.</p> <p>For copyright reasons the images that inspired the work cannot be reproduced here, but can be sought out manually for those interested. The four movements, each named after the image that inspired it, are: Shaft no. 7, Astreunuchen, Passage XXI and Landscape X.</p> <p>To order/hire score and orchestral parts, please contact the composer.</p> <br /> <h2>LISTEN:</h2> Excerpt, movement 1 (Shaft no. 7). <a href="../audio/giger01.mp3"><b>[ DOWNLOAD MP3 ]</b></a><br /> <script language="JavaScript" src="../audio/audio-player.js"></script> <object type="application/x-shockwave-flash" data="../audio/player.swf" id="audioplayer1" height="24" width="290"> <param name="movie" value="../audio/player.swf"> <param name="FlashVars" value="playerID=1&amp;soundFile=../audio/giger01.mp3"> <param name="quality" value="high"> <param name="menu" value="false"> <param name="wmode" value="transparent"> </object><br /><br /> Excerpt, movement 2 (Astreunuchen) <a href="../audio/giger02.mp3"><b>[ DOWNLOAD MP3 ]</b></a><br /> <script language="JavaScript" src="../audio/audio-player.js"></script> <object type="application/x-shockwave-flash" data="../audio/player.swf" id="audioplayer2" height="24" width="290"> <param name="movie" value="../audio/player.swf"> <param name="FlashVars" value="playerID=2&amp;soundFile=../audio/giger02.mp3"> <param name="quality" value="high"> <param name="menu" value="false"> <param name="wmode" value="transparent"> </object><br /><br /> Excerpt, movement 3 (Passage XXI) <a href="../audio/giger03.mp3"><b>[ DOWNLOAD MP3 ]</b></a><br /> <script language="JavaScript" src="../audio/audio-player.js"></script> <object type="application/x-shockwave-flash" data="../audio/player.swf" id="audioplayer3" height="24" width="290"> <param name="movie" value="../audio/player.swf"> <param name="FlashVars" value="playerID=3&amp;soundFile=../audio/giger03.mp3"> <param name="quality" value="high"> <param name="menu" value="false"> <param name="wmode" value="transparent"> </object><br /><br /> Excerpt, movement 4 (Landscape X). <a href="../audio/giger04.mp3"><b>[ DOWNLOAD MP3 ]</b></a><br /> <script language="JavaScript" src="../audio/audio-player.js"></script> <object type="application/x-shockwave-flash" data="../audio/player.swf" id="audioplayer4" height="24" width="290"> <param name="movie" value="../audio/player.swf"> <param name="FlashVars" value="playerID=4&amp;soundFile=../audio/giger04.mp3"> <param name="quality" value="high"> <param name="menu" value="false"> <param name="wmode" value="transparent"> </object><br /><br /> <br /><br /><br /> <a href="../works.html"><img src="../gfx_etc/back_button_06.gif" border="0" alt="BACK" /></a><br /><br /> <!-- PANEL WIDTH END --> </td> </table> </body> </html>
