Popular Post Omen II 1,235 Posted February 18, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted February 18, 2019 I'd love it if the Royal Albert Hall were to announce The Empire Strikes Back live in concert, say - I don't know - tomorrow, for example. That would be really cool, but I don't suppose it would ever happen.

crocodile 8,016 Posted February 19, 2019 Share Posted February 19, 2019 Haha, you sneaky bugger @Omen II. The Empire Strikes Back in London (21-23 September). No LSO this time - London Philharmonia and Dirk Brosse will do this one. Tickets go on sale on Friday at 9am. Unless you're a patron, of course, in which case it's tomorrow at 10am.

The Philharmonia and the London Philharmonic Orchestra are two completely different orchestras, although both are based at London's Royal Festival Hall. The LSO, the LPO and the Philharmonia are the top three orchestras in London and are amongst the finest in the world. Think of them as the top three teams in the Premier League vying for top spot! https://www.philharmonia.co.uk/orchestra/about The Philharmonia has a long history of recording film soundtracks since the 1940s for the likes of Miklos Rozsa, Maurice Jarre, Alan Rawsthorne, Ralph Vaughan Williams, James Newton Howard, George Fenton, Brian Tyler and many more. I have attended several film music concerts given by the Philharmonia and the musicianship has always been excellent, for example in a concert of music from Spielberg films a couple of years ago where there were several John Williams selections. It might not be the LSO but we are in safe hands with the Philharmonia. aj_vader and Mattris 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crocodile 8,016 Posted February 19, 2019 Share Posted February 19, 2019 By the way, among the more recent albums using London Philharmonia is John Powell's Hubris. I think it was actually first performed by them as well during the premiere. I might be wrong here but I think Vaughan Williams used the group for Scott of the Antarctic back in 1948.

toothless 963 Posted March 2, 2019 Share Posted March 2, 2019 Intermission here for ROTJ. For now it’s the least entertaining of all but it’s always a pleasure to hear JW music live Édit : I do have one question. I see TFA tomorrow and I wonder if the male choir for snoke will be there. To those who attended TFA Ltp , was it in the mix or a live choir ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SyncMan 314 Posted March 2, 2019 Share Posted March 2, 2019 I attended the SW:TFA-L2P in Washington, DC last week. There was no chorus on the stage with the orchestra, but there were choir sounds coming out through the speakers-either from the film mix or from a digital keyboard.

crumbs 14,316 Posted March 5, 2019 Share Posted March 5, 2019 I wish they'd hurry up and announce The Last Jedi already! I'm guessing they'll coincide those concerts in the lead up to IX. It was so good seeing TFA with the MSO one week out from the premiere of TLJ. The perfect entree! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toothless 963 Posted March 5, 2019 Share Posted March 5, 2019 3 hours ago, greenturnedblue said: Jedi step and Lukes reveal at the end must've been amazing True! And so was the rendition of rey's theme in the end credit. One thing though, I was sad they removed the smal ending of the end credit to replace it with a more bombastic ending (even though it wraps the concert effectively).

crumbs 14,316 Posted March 5, 2019 Share Posted March 5, 2019 I can't even remember what the MSO did at the end. I think they prefer the concert ending generally because otherwise people just start clapping before it's over (like most times Williams conducts it, they applause before the final rendition of Luke's Theme ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SyncMan 314 Posted March 5, 2019 Share Posted March 5, 2019 The end credits music cue for the L2P concert version of SW:TFA was, also, shorter than the film version. If one were to sync this L2P concert version of the end credit music cue to the theatrical version of the end credits, the L2P concert version would end before the film version would. This would mean that the end credits on the screen would speed-up—increase the duration—so that the music and the credits would end at the same time. This was done the same way for the end credits in the Jurassic Park L2P concerts where Williams replaced the music for the end-credit-film-version with his public concert version, which was shorter. In this YouTube except of the RAH performance of a JP-L2P concert, this concert version of the end credits ends at the 8:04 mark, but notice the credit-roll continuing. In the 5:24 mark of this except from a later JP-L2P concert, the music ends at the end of the “Amblin” logo clip. Getting back to SW:TFA-L2P concert, the Lucasfilm logo clip and the Bad Robot logo clip were not displayed after the end credits were finished when I saw this in DC.

Since no one corrected me on this, I thought I'd do so publicly. DisneyConcerts announced the Star Wars Concert Series in February 2017, not April. All I had to do was read the date of the first post of this thread. Duh! That means that DisneyConcerts didn't stick with the same pattern by not announcing a new Star Wars L2P concert on that same time. However, I still have hope that they can surprise us between now and May the fourth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
