Balahkay 627 Posted May 12, 2015 Share Posted May 12, 2015 I just listened to The Hunt after I don't know how many years... It's really an amazing piece... I've listened to it about 4 times now. I might just have to listen to the whole score again pretty soon... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Josh500 1,615 Posted May 13, 2015 Share Posted May 13, 2015 Yes, "The Hunt" is absolutely brilliant. The entire piece is great, of course, but for some reason, my favorite part is the last 40 seconds or so, right before the string section goes wild and abruptly cuts out, leaving only the percussions. Does it get any more dramatic and electrifying than that?I've always preferred "Sarah's Rescure" over "The Hunt," though. But yeah, both are top-notch.

Incanus 5,714 Posted May 13, 2015 Share Posted May 13, 2015 The Hunt is also the only action piece in the score incorporating the actual Lost World theme, which makes it even cooler.Rescuing Sarah in its complete form is the absolute highlight of the score, head to head with the Visitor in San Diego sequence.

It's a separate "theme" or motif, if you will, just found in this piece... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jay 37,364 Posted May 13, 2015 Share Posted May 13, 2015 The Hunt DEFINITELY uses the main LW theme, and as Inky says is the only action cue in the score to utilize it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The first 3 ascending notes are the same, that's it. Unless I'm missing something? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jay 37,364 Posted May 13, 2015 Share Posted May 13, 2015 0:12-0:22 of "The Lost World" is the theme, right? Now 0:21-0:26 of "The Hunt" is that theme with a new uplifting ending Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Incanus 5,714 Posted May 13, 2015 Share Posted May 13, 2015 Well you could say the recurring motif is based on the Lost World theme if that makes it easier to swallow. Hence the main theme is used in way throughout the piece. But man it is a great piece! I just took another listen and it has to be one of JWs liveliest little setpieces. He really took the "jungle drums" direction from Spielberg to heart and the results are wonderful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I never thought they were the same. Maybe the latter was inspired by the former (or vice versa) at one point, but except for the first three notes they bear little resemblance. And the LW theme is quite long, 0:14-0:44 or so, of which you hear nothing in TH. Well you could say the recurring motif is based on the Lost World theme if that makes it easier to swallow. Hence the main theme is used in way throughout the piece. But man it is a great piece! I just took another listen and it has to be one of JWs liveliest little setpieces.

Josh500 1,615 Posted May 13, 2015 Share Posted May 13, 2015 Either way, TLW is probably no. 1 on my JW expanded/complete wish list right now... And so much music missing from the OS album, too! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jay 37,364 Posted May 13, 2015 Share Posted May 13, 2015 Yup! It's my #1 most wanted expanded release / session leak. Followed by Harry Potter 3. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
