Some fabulous concerts but not as much fun Why do groups feel like they have to ham it up when it comes to film music? This group has all kinds of lame gimmicks when playing Williams' film music, for example: (around 4:30) But when they play other music they play it completely straight? Are they afraid people won't enjoy a concert of this stuff if they're not laughing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ocelot 508 Posted June 10, 2018 Author Share Posted June 10, 2018 I think, because it's film music, it is some people's "pop" music. As in popular, not the genre, so people go to have fun and they still love and enjoy the music, but there's an added thing to it. BTW, with the exception of Darth Vader coming in at the encore and the conductor coming out as Captain Jack Sparrow after the intermission, the rest of the concert was like any normal concert. He played pieces and people clapped and cheered after each one. I just was able to film that one because it was the encore. I mean honestly, I risk being thrown out of the Albert Hall to bring you footage that no one else has and this is the thanks I get?! That's it! No More I tell you!!! I'm Revolting!!!!

As you imply, It's the concert organizers who need to distance themselves from this "lesser" art form by pulling cheap stunts such as this. It betrays their deep-seated condescension, as in, "Who cares? it's only film music. Let's have some fun!" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ocelot 508 Posted June 11, 2018 Author Share Posted June 11, 2018 First of all the Conductor is Anthony Inglis. He LOVES film music and is the resident conductor of the London Concert Orchestra who love to play film music. I should have recorded Hook because it was spectacularly played and he said it is one of his all time favorite pieces to conduct bar none especially with this orchestra. He also talked about what a master Williams is and how he has come from a long line of incredible composers before him who have influenced him and his style. I honestly don't see anything wrong with having a little fun be it with film music or when doing something like a classical spectacular where they dress up and do stunts as well and there is no film music played there, only classical music. Williams is one of my favorite composers ever, most of you know that from the way I talk, and some of you know it from how I write, but make no mistake, his film music, as much as I adore it, is not a Mahler Symphony or a Richard Strauss Tone Poem... LOL It is not cheapening his themes to once in a while have fun with it. It just added to the atmosphere, and honestly, each time I watch it I giggle at Darth Vader conducting and Breathing and can still appreciate that this is one of the best, if not, THE BEST, theme ever written for film. But that's me. Jurassic Shark 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LOL I'm glad JW's film music isn't like one of Strauss' tone poems. Although I like them a lot, the guy clearly lacked control of his impulsivity when writing them.

Curious your disdain of my post disdain of zimmers ability as a composer doesn't meet your needs for an intelligent philisopical post of a postive nature. It is in fact an emotional response in a negative way for zimmer's attempts at musical scoring which I inept and purile. It also reflects poor taste on someone's part other than my own.
