filmmusic 1,829 Posted April 12, 2013 Author Share Posted April 12, 2013 The Suite from Lincoln is gonna be published soon by Hal Leonard:http://www.emsmusic.com/product_p/emsg180697.htmIt's a 3-movement suite including "Getting Out the Vote", "The People's House" and "With Malice Toward None".Any update about this?the link is not working.This is gonna be a signature edition? (meaning original full score)? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe Brausam 214 Posted April 12, 2013 Share Posted April 12, 2013 The listing was removed from the site, I believe. A while back I think. Hal Leonard doesn't list it, nor does any other music site I've seen. I think it is probably accurate information, but the product was probably held back for whatever reason. Maybe the info was sent out early by mistake.Similar thing happened with the Signature Editions for Horn book. It was listed years ago on Sheet Music Plus and several other sites, but was eventually pulled. It wasn't published until last year, which was about 2 years after the initial listings for it.

Seth 67 Posted December 21, 2013 Share Posted December 21, 2013 I think "Here they come" and "Cantina band" are probably the movements from the suite he made in 1977/78 that was published by Fox Fanfare. The others I can't speak for. I do wish, though, that he hadn't tinkered with "The Asteroid Field" for the concert arrangement. The original film cue is a perfectly cohesive and engaging composition. Then again I also don't like the concert arrangement of "Adventures on Earth," so what do I know? bollemanneke 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are even more titles out there for rental, including "The Battle" from STAR WARS; "Han Solo and the Princess" and the Finale (including the End Credits) from THE EMPIRE STRIKES BACK; and "Jabba the Hutt" from RETURN OF THE JEDI.I received my copy of this score recently. I am very very happy of this score, apart from two obvious typesetting mistakes in the violin lines in "Luke and Leia" (two wrong notes) that make me a bit nervous. You are right that all the cues included here are the same arrangements that were available from rental libraries, although it is very nice to have them in modern typeset "Hal Leonard" format. "Here They Come" and "Cantina Band" are indeed the same as the Fox Fanfare suite, I think with very minor changes in some markings and tempo indications (but I have not compared them, just going by memory). "Asteroid Field", unfortunately, is the old concert arrangement (not the film cue nor the "Star Wars: A Musical Journey" version, which I was somehow hoping for, which is almost identical to the film cue). I like it, but I also like the film cue more. The three cues from ROTJ ("Parade of the Ewoks", "Luke and Leia" and "The Forest Battle") are from a suite that was available for rental, to my knowledge, only in manuscript form, which included also "Jabba the Hutt" (not available in this collection).As far as I know, the only titles that were released for rental and are by now not yet published by Hal Leonard are the ones listed by MovieMusicMaestro, plus "The Little People". So, to summarize:"The Little People" from ANH"The Battle" from ANH"Han Solo and the Princess" from ESB"Finale & End Credits" from ESB"Jabba the Hutt" from ROTJMaybe this would make for another suite release, although "Finale" from ESB would be a bit out of place. I also have the dream that they would release the full "Battle of Yavin" as in the film (not the arrangement), but I think this will never happen!

MovieMusicMaestro 33 Posted October 7, 2014 Share Posted October 7, 2014 WilliamsStarShip2282: What do you mean with "they are not arranged by williams"? The Suite from LINCOLN (called "Music from LINCOLN) which has been published by Hal Leonard includes these titles: 1. "The People's House" (which is a combination of "The People's House", "The Blue and Grey" and "With Malice Toward None"), ca. 5:252. "Getting Out the Vote", ca. 3:053. "Elegy" (for two trumpets and string orchestra), ca. 2:50 --- The concert version has ten bars more than the recording: 4. "With Malice toward None" (for string orchestra), ca. 3:305. "With Malice toward None" (for solo trumpet and orchestra), ca. 3:45 --- This is identical with this recording: A live recording of nos. 1, 2 and 4 as performed by the Boston Pops Orchestra under the musical direction of John Williams can be heard here: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marcus 390 Posted October 8, 2014 Share Posted October 8, 2014 It is not. The orchestral arrangements for the Signature Editions are always by Williams. The band versions, however, are usually arranged by others (frequently Paul Lavender).Christopher Martin is the dedicatee (Chicago Symphony's principal trumpet), and Hal Leonard simply screwed up and got the preposition wrong (it should probably read "for", not "by").

There is an Eb.(C minor chord)In the ost, film and piano sheet music that is a natural E. (C major chord)In the full score signature edition, in the performance by Williams in 2012 with the Boston Pops and as it seems in this arrangement too, it's Eb.I like the natural E much better.

What do you think?I was thinking maybe the Eb was a mistake originally in the signature edition, and Williams overlooked it in his performance?I completely agree with you. I have also wondered about this chord, I also prefer E natural as in the OST, I also suspect that it might have been just a mistake in the SE and Williams overlooked it in the performance, as strange as this may be. E flat just sounds out of place here. The only doubt that I have is due to the fact that E flat occurs twice in bar 5 (in the contrabasses and in the lowest-register section of the second violins) and so, if it was an error, it was done twice. But anything can be. If I had to conduct it, I think I would ask violins and basses to play C natural!If it is an error, it would not be the first time that SE mistakes naturals for flats, there are at least two examples occurring in Jurassic Park Main Theme (bar 5, last note of the first flute, this is "big"!) and in Star Wars (bar 52, piano RH, first chord, the C should be natural). bollemanneke 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marcus 390 Posted October 19, 2014 Share Posted October 19, 2014 I'm pretty sure it's a revision, not a typo, lending even more modal ambiguity to the passage (adding a phrygian sprinkle to the already major-tinged dorian-ism of the writing).

ricsim88 244 Posted August 25, 2015 Share Posted August 25, 2015 I just received Scherzo for Motorcycle and orchestra. It's actually a new arrangement, not the track of the same name from the OST. It has been performed (maybe premiered?) at the Film night concert last May, which is available here http://www.wgbh.org/programs/The-Boston-Symphony-Orchestra-in-Concert-1641#63461That piece starts around the 1hour and 3 minutes mark. Fun arrangement and the performance sounds great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
InTheCity 140 Posted August 25, 2015 Share Posted August 25, 2015 In general these scores are in the 85-100% realm of the OST recordings.Sometimes the voicings are changed to accommodate more standard ensembles. 6 horns to 4, or 5 bones to 4.JW looks over them though and in general is very hands on with everything.He is a beast.
