  6. I keep thinking RealOne Player whenever I see that title.
  7. But there is definite soul in Schindler's List's edge, while the edginess of Defiance's soul is lacking.
  8. Defiance has more soul; Schindler's List has more edge.
  9. Is there such a thing as a conservative artist? Really? I mean really think about it! Brahms?
  10. Is it, though? Even for someone with non-flat affect, it's safe to say there's a spectrum of intensity in emotional response to any given stimulus, with the potential for something quite muted. It would seem that in your (rhetorical) model above, you are factoring in the emotional quotient. If it isn't there (or is fairly negligible), what's there to "transcribe"?
  11. Agreed. When Williams sets out to compose music that is inaccessible, he does violence to the medium's essential universality and betrays an unhealthy preoccupation with his legacy among cultural elites.
  12. Abel's fate was quite dire, indeed. Speaking of which, The Ogre is an excellent score from another composer often cited as lacking "soul"—Michael Nyman.
  13. "Dario Marianelli" is such a clinical sounding name. Lacks panache.
  14. Sometimes I wish IPB would auto-shrink YouTube embeds for the purposes of quoting/ease of reading.

  16. Crimes of the Heart (Delerue) M. Butterfly (Shore) Wonderland (Nyman)
