Will we hear you coughing?

As you are interested in minimal music I would strongly recommend it to you. But you might get distracted by the combination of the required precision of the music and the Vienna flubbs.

At last!

Understand. That's a little bit like I feel about Aliens. Before Aliens I just knew Krull from Horner. And I remember, after watching Aliens that this was for me one of the greatest action scores. Then I heard Wolfen and Patriot Games and Gorki Park. And suddely Aliens had lost its charm because it just sounded plugged togeher from elements and ideas from these scores.

@Holko Maybe you try "Casper". That's in my top 5 Horner scores.

No I don't confuse it with Aliens. I am not aware of the Aliens extended cut ever playing in cinemas. But the Alien director's cut did. No, it is exactly the version in the Quadrology box set.

As I said, I don't think so. The director's cut, same as the Bladerunner director's cut came out as a regular movie in cinemas, around here at least.

No. When this cut first came out (was it the late 90s or early 2000s?) it was regularly shown at the cinemas, at least here in Germany. This was no special screening. This was where I recognized that the Nostromo really looked like more kind of a cardboard model and less like the giant spaceship, that I knew from television. Still visually impressive.

Hopefully not the so called director's cut. That is the only version, that I saw in cinema.

Who else is here reminded of Jaws?

I have that box set now and I really love it. It provides a cronological walk through Sarde's career from 1969 until 2021 on six CDs with exactly one track per film. For me it's like a miniature of these Ecoutez le Cinemà boxsets. Wish that would exist for Sarde, too. That's me!

But institutions like orchestras, concert halls or any kind of music ensembles could pay tribute by just playing film music on that day.

"Now, how does this karaoke thing work?"

I read that article, too. I understood, that this was the first published non-musical film score album.

It seems to be just a national thing in the U.S. Nice idea anyway.

Source?

Someone should ask John Williams to fund it additionally.

I mean, they allowed the expanded release of Solo on Intrada...

I would even be happy just with proper expansions of the sequel scores. Even if they just contained a merge of the OSTs and the FYC albums.

I watched The Ten Commandments the first and only time as a child at a little cinema close to where my parents lived and where I spend many afternoon after school (and left a lot of my pocket money). As a big science fiction fan I was probably mainly interested in the special effects. The music didn't leave a big impression. Other than King of Kings, which I first saw on television and immediately fell in love with the main theme. That is probably why I cannot really connect to that score. Here I really prefer the style of Rózsa or Newman for these religious epics.

What about the Lando movie?

That was probably the fist step in that direction.

They could make animated remakes of all of his movies.

It is
