Joni Wiljami 1,206 Posted March 2, 2014 Share Posted March 2, 2014 Il s'agissait de mon dernier post dans ce fil de discussion. De toute façon, il faut bien se rendre à l'évidence, chacun partage ce qu'il aime et ceci, dans l'indifférence de tous les autres usagers. edit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A24 4,333 Posted March 2, 2014 Share Posted March 2, 2014 Throwing away 75% of the original material and recomposing one of the most beloved classical works of all time has to be one of the ballsiest projects I've heard in a long time. I think I even liked what I heard!Alex Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm glad to say nobody disgusts me at JWFan. Anyway, Listened a couple of times to Hindson's Violin Concerto. This CD also features a suit from Corigliano's The Red Violin, which can almost be considered a modern classic by now. Alex Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sharkissimo 1,973 Posted March 18, 2014 Share Posted March 18, 2014 There's plenty of nuts commenting on classical music videos on Youtube. One memorable one claimed that because a certain study showed atonal and rock music stunted the growth of plants, therefore they're also harmful to humans.

Jay 37,359 Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 Can anyone recommend a few classical pieces that most resemble the classic orchestral film score sound from the 70s-90s? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dixon Hill 4,234 Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 Can you cite some specific scores? A lot of that sound, especially once you're into the 80's, is pretty exclusive to Hollywood.You might try out John Adams, Aaron Copland, Samuel Barber, and Korngold's concert music. Why not Wagner, Richard Strauss, and Mahler while you're at it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jay 37,359 Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 Well, I guess I don't really know. I guess like Star Wars, Star Trek II The Wrath Of Khan, Star Trek The Motion Picture, ET, Back to The Future, The Last Starfighter, Indiana Jones, Air Force One, Independence Day, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dixon Hill 4,234 Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 Then I think those guys I mentioned would be good starting points. Those scores are still mostly in the "old" style. After a certain point in the 80's, Horner, Goldsmith, and even Williams moved into a realm that is pretty independent of any concert music. In fact, a lot of concert music started to draw from them. You'll hear a lot of that in Adams' stuff.For Wagner, try The Ring Without Words. With Strauss, Ein Heldenleben, Also Sprach Zarathustra, Tod und Verklarung, Eine Alpensinfonie. These guys are the source of a lot of the original Hollywood sound.Also try Prokofiev for some Hornerisms. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
