Sharkissimo 1,973 Posted February 22, 2016 Share Posted February 22, 2016 There are some nice ethereal colours in Young's score for Flowers in the Attic. I wish he wrote more in this language. I too find the sturm and drang style he adopts for horror kinda limiting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Disco Stu 15,495 Posted April 12, 2016 Share Posted April 12, 2016 Uhhhhhhhh, Howard Shore is no longer listed as the composer on Pete's Dragon on IMDB: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt2788732/fullcredits?ref_=tt_ov_st_sm Did I miss something? I can't find an official news story anywhere for this. It appears he's been replaced by Daniel Hart (who I've never heard of). It might explain why he was so evasive when asked about Pete's Dragon in this interview (http://collider.com/howard-shore-spotlight-interview-tom-mccarthy/) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Barnald 365 Posted April 12, 2016 Share Posted April 12, 2016 It's obvious! He must be clearing his workload for the impending Blu-ray box set of Middle-earth films, featuring new cuts of all six films rescored (where needed) by Howard himself!

Once 604 Posted April 12, 2016 Share Posted April 12, 2016 From what I've heard he is not anymore. Hope my sources were wrong, though, but it seems like he has been replaced on or dropped out of three 2016 movies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TownerFan 4,983 Posted April 13, 2016 Share Posted April 13, 2016 9 hours ago, Barnald said: Mmm. Should we be concerned? Not at all. Shore is in the privileged position to pick-and-choose whatever project he's interested in. He doesn't need to chase big hits and doesn't seem particularly interested in commercial studio fare. He only works for people and projects he feels attuned to. Also, it happens frequently a composer bails out of a project because of scheduling conflicts and not necessarily for creative reasons. crumbs 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Disco Stu 15,495 Posted April 13, 2016 Share Posted April 13, 2016 It's just concerning he seems to be offloading his entire schedule. Like...I hope he's not having any health issues or something. For now, I think you're right and we're reading too much into it. If Scorsese ends up using a different composer for an original score(as opposed to licensing music) on Silence I'll be officially concerned. The last time Scorsese had an original score from someone other than Shore was back in the 90s I'm pretty sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Correct. Elmer Bernstein scored Bringing Out The Dead in 1999 and its been Shore (Gangs of New York, Aviator, Departed, Hugo) or no original score (Shutter Island, Wolf of Wall Street) since.

Gnome in Plaid 219 Posted May 7, 2016 Share Posted May 7, 2016 To get back on track, I've got a number of questions regarding Gangs of New York/"Brooklyn Heights." 1. Does the concert work predate the film, or was it composed specifically for it? 2. Are the excerpts on the soundtrack album collectively the entire piece, or is there more to it? 3. If it's a longer work, has it been/will it be performed in full? 4. What are the lyrics to Pt. 3? Is a perusal score available anywhere? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
