Will 2,215 Posted December 1, 2016 Share Posted December 1, 2016 Just watched the clip! Score sounds great. I mean, sounds like what you'd expect from Giacchino, but fits with the Star Wars musical language so well!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sharkissimo 1,973 Posted December 2, 2016 Share Posted December 2, 2016 Thanks. Well that was... corny. Very un-Star Wars, yet very Gia. Metrically rigid, restricted harmonic pallet (pred. tritones and perfect fourths), no sense of internal musical continuity (as usual, a slavish devotion to rhetoric over syntax--musical events just... happen), and a circumscribed use of the orchestra. Fuck, it could be straight out of a 50s B-movie or a serial. Attack of the Giant Hamsters... Not Mr. Big and aviazn 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
artguy360 1,843 Posted December 2, 2016 Share Posted December 2, 2016 Listening to it again, the little flourish of brass topped off with a cymbal clash is pretty nice. Clearly Gia trying to channel OT JW. The rest is whatever but I'm still cautiously excited for the score and Jyn's Theme in particular. I haven't been impressed by Gia's theme arrangements or concert suites. I hope this score changes that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

#SnowyVernalSpringsEternal 10,265 Posted December 2, 2016 Share Posted December 2, 2016 Well the sound of Star Wars is, at present still completely linked to the sound of John Williams. So it's unavoidable that Gia's music is gonna sound a little...off. Even I won't fault him for that. The same would have happened with Desplat.

toothless 963 Posted December 2, 2016 Share Posted December 2, 2016 I don't blame him for that. In fact I find it funny and nice that some composer are so easily recognizable. As an exemple I could link this sound to JNH in a heartbeat (From 1:12 I feel like I heard this "effect" with this particular sound -or orchestration or whatever I'm not a pro- on every JNH score.)

Fuck, it could be straight out of a 50s B-movie or a serial. Attack of the Giant Hamsters... I'd like to know more about musical theory - I'm a big Giacchino fan and I acknowledge some of his music is simplistic. Could you expand on these or give me other examples in his music - or counter-examples in more complex music to help me understand? Metrically rigid: so it doesn't change time-signatures? Most music doesn't within any given 40 seconds? Or is it the same rhythm without, say, halving time. Harmonic pallet: what's pred. tritones? Rhetoric over syntax: would more syntactical music have figures that presage coming ones, or callbacks...rather than one section after the next. Circumscribed use of orchestra: not enough xylophone? From my limited understanding, I expect Williams avoids all of these pitfalls (all of the time?), and I suspect these features mark the difference between classical composers and (many) film score composers. Is there a piece of music you can recommend that excels on all of these features? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lostoman17 14 Posted December 2, 2016 Share Posted December 2, 2016 Again, I cannot understand why there are so many Gia-haters on this forum. Almost everyone insolently talking about "Djatchino-ish" music. To my mind this pseudo-offensive word is a compliment. Honestly, I always try to be "Djatchino-ish" while playing the piano.

Jay 37,322 Posted December 2, 2016 Share Posted December 2, 2016 Every composer has people who like them and people who don't. What I don't understand is why the people who don't like Giacchino pop into the thread for each of his scores and post negative comments about the score, or actually, usually about previous scores of his before they've even heard the score in question. To me, that is quite and incredible waste of time. Arpy and leeallen01 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
