These days I listened for the first time to the album Our World released in 2017 and it's great, after a few listens it quickly became one of my favorite. I have no information about this project I couldn't find anything about it. The album consist of ten suites which are quite long, 6 or 7 minutes. I like this because it's departure from other Preisner's scores when we have short cues. Preisner use some of his material from other scores but I also hear new music. I think I need to remake my top 10 and include this album because it's amazing! I recommend this for any Preisner's fan. Does anyone else listened to this album?

It's such a unique score in the mood it creates with the female voice, piano and strings it has a fascinating effect on me. Also I like how Preisner uses silence and pauses to create mood. "It's Time" is one of my favorite cues of all times.

Bartosz Chajdecki - Różyczka 2 WOW! One of my favorite scores of the year, I'm blown away by this score! Gorgeous romantic music similar in style with Abel Korzeniowski Romeo & Juliet. I have always been a fan of Chajdecki, too bad some of his scores remain unreleased.

One of my favorite JNH moments, the cathartic Breakout from Dinosaur, starts at 1:09.

I enjoy this score, it's probably my favorite Hunger Games score since the first one. I like the instrumentation with the piano, viola de gamba, cello d’amore, choir, female voice and the atmosphere and mood they create. This score is more like the first one minus the electronics and it lacks a stunning theme like Rue's theme but the reprised themes from the series are great. Of course the release it's too lengthy so I made myself a 60 min. playlist leaving out the dissonant and violent action music (but I really love the action cue Happy Hunger Games) and some suspense cues. My highlights are: Meet the Mentor Sejanus - gorgeous and emotional, pure JNH magic Hunger is a Weapon Saving Snow Ideas Firing Happy Hunger Games - great action music Mercy Under the Flag - cathartic Get Her Out - cathartic Snow Lands on Top and the three piano cues Friendship, Rue's Farewell and Victor - maybe a future album like Night after Night with the music from all the Hunger Games scores? That would be great. -

There is a new theme in Meet the Mentor, which it reminded me of one of his theme from his violin concerto. -

A director who ask for a more classical score with no electronics, in 2023, it's exciting and something to admire. -
Not only that it's not that bad but for me it's very good. I was also underwhelmed at my first listen because of the length and the dark suspense cues but after I made my playlist the score grew on me. This is gorgeous, beautiful, emotional score with great themes. JNH is very good at this. I agree with you that even if I don't like some cues I'm grateful for the lengthy release this way I can easily make my own playlist.
