Oh and I forget one:
Williams himself incorporated it in Family Plot.
Varese, Track 7: 4:45.
Sorry no youtube clip...
-
Michael Kamen
Die Hard
at 6:25

On the La La Land release Disc 2 Track 9 (Helicopter Explosion & Showdown): 0:11
But I guess it's because Kamen listened too closely to the temp track :-)

Sex, Drugs and ...err Film Music
with Lionell Newman in London
-
I like that one...
-
Oh yeah give us more Kamen! Unfortunately he is so underrated... I really hope the Newman is "The Diary of Anne Frank"!
-
Yes, I bought the CD back when it was released.
The score was also not conducted by Newman himself in Munich (he was probably busy with other films) but by Fox's session pianist and conductor Urban Thielmann.
But it's still possible that Williams co-orchestrated some cues for Newman and was present at the LA source music sessions. As I said above there are no orchestrator credits on the Lalaland release.
-
I do not think that Williams was performing on Certain Smile as a session musician as the score was recorded in Munich, Germany in July 1958 during AFM strike. Although there are two cues ("A Certain Smile" [vocal version] and "The Dance Orchestra") which were recorded in LA. Unfortunately the liner notes doesn't offer a musicians list.
Regarding the orchestrations the Lalaland release does not mention Williams as orchestrator. Neither is Edward B. Powell credited, Newman's main orchestrator during his tenure at Fox.

Jason, does the Tintin score have any choir passages?
-
TV spot on the official German Tintin Facebook page. More footage of the ships, some oriental palace, Tintin driving a convertible and motorbike...

Yes it is more of a curiosity of why wouldn't JW hire his usual suspects. Could be any number of reasons, mostly that there could be conflicting schedules and I do not know if John Neufeld still works as his credits at IMDB end with Terminal in 2004.
I also guess this has something to do with scheduling conflicts. I mean, Pope probably wasn't available ALL the time over the last two(???) years JW was writing/changing the music. After all Pope was also busy orchestrating for Desplat and writing his own scores... and Karam was working on War Horse and as you said Neufeld most likely has retired.
-
As I said this is very odd. When you look back the last ten years Williams always approached Conrad Pope, Eddie Karam or John Neufeld. Perhaps those at imdb made a mistake.
I am sure Williams is the last to sound like those clones at RC!!! He'll battle them with xylophone and flutes...

Hey guys, found something over at imdb.
When you look for Cast and Crew of Tintin and scroll down you already find a short Music Department list:
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0983193/fullcredits#cast
Odd thing is that it states a guy named Alejandro de la Llosa as orchestrator alongside Conrad Pope.
If you look further at his credits it seems that he is orchestrating a lot for Remote Control composers like Zimmer!
I do not hope that Spielberg wants the Zimmer-sound for Johnnys score
Favorite scores or composers from the Golden Age?

I really like a lot of film scores by Bronisław Kaper. Mutiny on the Bounty is probably his most popular score (It's a real masterpiece! Kaper virtually wrote two different versions for the film.) But I also like his "smaller" scores like the ones on FSM's "Kaper at MGM" Box.
