Muad'Dib 1,800 Posted March 8, 2016 Share Posted March 8, 2016 Don't get too excited, this probably means Hansy will be doing a suite with main themes and then handling the actual scoring duties to Rupert and company. Not it saying it's a bad thing, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

publicist 4,643 Posted March 8, 2016 Share Posted March 8, 2016 There's very few Potter music post-Williams that i care to listen to on its own. Both Doyle and Desplat shine mostly in non-action moments of fleeting melodic inspiration but it's slim reward for all the stuff you hava to wade through.

Once 604 Posted March 8, 2016 Share Posted March 8, 2016 I think Doyle's score tended to sound like it was written for a silent film. It still contains some very good moments, in my opinion. Sky Battle has fleeting moments that reminds me of Empire Strikes Back. Not Mr. Big 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not really a fan of Doyle's action scoring in GOF to be honest. The heavy footed wall-of-sound approach makes me long for Williams' sixteenth notes and rapid-fire xylophone hits.

KK 3,307 Posted March 8, 2016 Share Posted March 8, 2016 Good grief BloodBoal, can't believe you dug that up! What will it take to finally quench your everlasting thirst to keep shaming me?! I didn't even bother reading through that likely cringeworthy crap. But like Incanus just wisely pointed out, I was around 13 at the time and Gladiator was the second official OST I owned. And yes, I was an early Zimmer fanboy then, since he was the guy who got me started into the whole "collecting film music" schtick. So please forgive the naive gushing you've put on display here. Having said that, I still stand by the fact that Gladiator is a good score, and that CC's review was pretty off-the-mark in this case. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Muad'Dib 1,800 Posted April 17, 2016 Share Posted April 17, 2016 I seem to remember The Burning Bush theme was inspired by the work of a classical composer, but I can't remember exactly. Anyone care to help me out? Mind you, this isn't to diminish Hansy's work on what is probably one of his most remarkable achievements in his film music carreer, hell, maybe even in film music history. But I'm curious about possible influences. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
