Yeah, even before the track times, I assumed the playing time would be around the 50 minute mark, which could only lead to the presumption that a) the remaining material would only be available on the 2-LP set or b) the track list wasn't final. 9 hours ago, TownerFan said: Having that said, this doesn't comes as much of a surprise...

Bayesian 1,363 Posted July 6, 2019 Share Posted July 6, 2019 Because I do not own a turntable and do not intend to ever buy one, my solution to this situation is to reluctantly buy the LP and store it until the day I can get ASM (or JW, although that's about as likely as me flying to the moon) to sign it, whereupon I'll frame the fucker and hang it on the wall, LP and all. And then pray to all that is holy that this is the last time a major label tries to pull this nonsense on us. Although that still doesn't get me the missing tracks into iTunes...

I can't imagine this being an LP exclusive thing for too long. Either there will be a deluxe edition on CD before long, as you say, or the tracks will only be available digitally (aside from the limited LP package). Both cases are annoying, especially for those of us who'd like to buy the CD as soon as it's out, and may then have to re-buy the album later.

Dr. Know 326 Posted July 6, 2019 Share Posted July 6, 2019 I love all three tracks released so far. Rey's Theme is quite lovely. But I'm not a fan of this piecemeal release.

artguy360 1,843 Posted July 7, 2019 Share Posted July 7, 2019 This new arrangement of Rey's Theme is...pretty good! But disappointingly not as inventive a take as the new Hedwig's Theme or Across the Stars. So far, those 2 are much more interesting, new arrangements than Rey's Theme and Yoda's Theme.

Popular Post rpvee 805 Posted July 7, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted July 7, 2019 Just heard the new Leia’s Theme arrangement at Tanglewood! It’s gorgeous. Becomes truer to the original once it gets going, but the first minute or so is really mysterious (even E.T. like in a way with those mysterious, spacey kind of bells). There was one statement of the main theme in the middle where do think Mutter’s solo bits over it were a bit too busy and different from what the orchestra was doing, but it balanced out when the orchestra got its big solo statement of the theme at the end before Mutter joined in for the big finale. Definitely will be a bonus track or something at some point. Really beautiful, and summed up everything Leia has been through since the original arrangement in 1977 and Carrie’s passing.

The Illustrious Jerry 3,356 Posted July 7, 2019 Share Posted July 7, 2019 It would be lovely if Mutter somehow got in a few cues as concertmaster at the IX sessions and we got a few film-ready variations of these themes for solo violin, especially in the case of Leia's and Rey's respective themes. Of course, it probably wouldn't end up as "violin solo-y" as this album makes it out to be, but I think it'd be gorgeous! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I completely agree - that was amazing, and in fact, I really enjoyed all the pieces, as did my wife. All this material will be released somehow or in some fashion. No way they would have recorded it and left it in the can. I also have to say that Ms. Mutter seemed much happier and comfortable with JW than with David Newman, but I suspect that will change once she and David have time to practice for the September concert in Munich. crumbs and Cerebral Cortex 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
