About
Everybody knows that Charlie Chaplin was one of film history’s greatest original geniuses. However, the fact that he was a gifted inventor of melodies and the meticulous musical dramaturge of his films is known only to very few. After Modern Times, he went on to compose the music for all his other films, including The Great Dictator, Limelight, and A King in New York. The complex, innovative music for Modern Times, composed in 1935, represents the high point of his compositional career.

Awards and reviews
December 2015
The quirks of its idiosyncratic, unschooled composer are easily audible…yet the music's kaleidoscopic jumble, each fragment time to match a specific image and mood, carries its own overwhelming personality, while the tunes themselves are obstinately memorable…the NDR displays plenty of comic and sentimental panache
