nightscape94 965 Posted November 11, 2015 Share Posted November 11, 2015 I can certainly understand the draw of Morricone, and I've enjoyed bits and pieces of his music, but Williams transcends. Not Mr. Big 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muad'Dib 1,802 Posted November 11, 2015 Share Posted November 11, 2015 I can certainly understand the draw of Morricone, and I've enjoyed bits and pieces of his music, but Williams transcends. I think both trascend. Morricone in particular with his religious styled music, it can make you believe there's life after death. I mean, listen to this, particularly when Lisa Gerrard kicks in I prefer Williams, but truth be told, there were moments that the music of Williams reminded me a bit of Morricone, never the other way around.The only thing that comes to mind in which Morricone *could* be channeling Williams is this, particularly with the woodwinds -but you could argue he was going for a more Carl Orff inspired approach, it even has a concert hall structure, I can't really imagine it fitting as it with the pictureAt 2:20 And maybe this Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A24 4,333 Posted November 12, 2015 Share Posted November 12, 2015 @Michael: I was more thinking of the main theme of Schindler's List (when I first heard it, I thought it sounded more Morricone than Williams - perhaps Williams was in a Euro mode) and then there's a few moments on Empire Of The Sun remind me of The Mission.

Joni Wiljami 1,206 Posted November 12, 2015 Share Posted November 12, 2015 Williams has more epic songs but Morricone more iconic songs, you idiots!! Ennio FTW!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ciarlese 250 Posted November 12, 2015 Share Posted November 12, 2015 Tu sei sfacime!My Italian is rusty but I'm calling you something derogatory!LOL Sorry to disappoint you but that is not Italian: that is Neapolitan . You must have met someone from Naples or nearby to learn that, but no Italian coming from a different region will know it. The correct spelling is "sfaccimma", and I will let you find out yourself what it is ROTFL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
