This fuge is a real masterpiece for a soundtrack! 👌 I didn't even know before reading about this fuge that each instrument symbolizes one appearing character in the scene, while pointing the murder using the transverse flute in the scene when Miss Marple finds the poison strychnine, locked into a medicine safe in the sick bay: 1) The cembalo (harpsichord) symbolizes Miss Marple snooping around. 2) The violoncello starts when Captain De Courcy Rhumstone leaves his berth. 3) The transverse flute marks the appearing of Commander Breeze-Connington. This flute appears shortly again in the strychnine scene. 4) The sound of a viola starts when Matron Fanbraid leaves her berth. 5) A clarinet plays when Assistant Matron Shirley Boston appears on the corridor. 6) When Commander Dimchurch enters the room, a vibraphone starts playing. The choice of instruments is worth highlighting too: 2) violoncello and 4) viola are both strings: maybe marking the hidden relationship between Captain De Courcy Rhumstone and Matron Fanbraid. 3) transverse flute and 5) clarinet are both wind instruments: maybe marking the complicity in robbery between Commander Breeze-Connington and Ass. Matron Boston. Well: a very remarkable, nice masterpiece!
Thanks so much!!!! When you uploaded 3 of Ron Goodwin's 4 soundtracks for Margaret Rutherford/Miss Marple last year, I was happy. Now, the fourth has arrived 👍👍👍👍
You're welcome Vincenzo. So nice to know you've been following my uploads for so long. If you have any requests just let me know. Just make sure the movie is available on UA-cam and the music from it has not already been uploaded. Cheers!

Thanks for sharing this. I love the fugue at 10:55
You're very welcome. I don't receive many comments on this one. Nice to finally get one. Thank you.
Ausgefuchst ist der Einsatz der Instrumente für das Erscheinen eines bestimmten Charakters. 😉
