Sweet! I REALLY hope that this concert will be released on CD and/or Blu-Ray. In fact, make it 4K Blu-Ray with Dolby Atmos!

June 30, 2023… June 30, 2023… Still hard to believe. I don’t think I’ve ever been more excited for a film coming out since Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker. Seeing these photos of the filming and locations just gets me more and more excited to see the film, and there isn’t even in a trailer yet! Not to mention that in a few days or weeks, Maestro John Williams will begin composing the score.

Cool!

Not really, since 2018 was when Hook was restored in 4K; the film did not have its anniversary that year. Hence, Hook is not part of the pattern.

...Touché, but that is the only exception, though.

I was actually going to mention those, but you beat me to it. Absolutely. There is a pattern, though. In 2017, Close Encounters of the Third Kind and E.T. had their 40th and 35th anniversary, respectively; both were restored in 4K AND had remastered and expanded soundtrack releases. In 2018, Saving Private Ryan and Schindler’s List had their 20th and 25th anniversary, respectively; both were restored in 4K AND had remastered and expanded soundtrack releases. In 2020, War of the Worlds had its 15th anniversary; the film was restored in 4K AND had a remastered and expanded soundtrack release. So, considering that Amistad is getting a 4K restoration AND next year marks the film’s 25th anniversary…

That is not to say that there definitely will not be an expanded and remastered release from the Maestro before the end of the year; chances are there will be. Just don’t be upset IF the situation comes that there will not be one announced on Black Friday or prior.

Would not doubt it, since the same happened with Close Encounters of the Third Kind, E.T., and War of the Worlds. Expect the 4K Blu-Ray to come out soon; I’ll get that without question.

“…our Black Friday titles are up in the air at this point. We may only have a few titles come out.” MV https://filmscoremonthly.com/board/posts.cfm?threadID=144744&forumID=1&archive=0 I hate to say it, but there may be a situation where an expanded and remastered release from the Maestro will not be revealed by the end of this year.

I’ll be listening to these now. May he Rest In Peace.

Did I mention that I will definitely be getting this? Hopefully the Amazon US link will be posted so this can be pre-ordered in advance.

I knew that, and overall the listening experience is great. In this instance, however, it is a section of an entire cue that is put in different sequential order. I’m just curious. I always thought that was how it was recorded; it certainly sounds that way.

I need clarification on another thing. I can’t identify the cue, but one section of music occurs after the next in both the film and on the album, while in this presentation the same section occurs before the next. The time stamp in this presentation for the section I’m referring to is 9:35 to 9:48. This presentation represents the sequence as composed and conducted, right? Why is the album sequence different in this section? Does the album presentation somewhat reflect the final picture, hence a restructuring of the sequence? Forgive me if I’m a little confused and need clarification.

I actually meant to ask when each cue starts and ends in this presentation.
