Yes.

After the last SW score I have very low expectations on the music front unfortunately. However, I have every expectation that the new movie will be better than the last two. Unless George Lucas has decided that Howard the Duck should appear to kill Mace Windu...
From the composition point of view or the music editing?
We all know how butchered this stuff gets. I have really enjoyed both the prequel scores - some moments more than others of course.
-
I really like Rocky - great score. I know that not inluded.
-
Anyone else more excited to hear the score than to see the movie?
-
I am pretty sure LSO is what Hanz and JNH have been using for these many years.
The famous overblowing horns.......

Wasn't the Diamond Music one of the Vivaldi Concerto? 18 or 88 or something like that
-
I make my living as a pianist - composer (as do a few other members of this board). So I can read music, and often get hired to sight read stuff like the Brahms Violin Sonaten and Mozart Arias hours before a concert. It is interesting that reading music doesn't seem to have much effect on how much you enjoy it.

Silly Question - but I am just curious.

I wonder if our moderator can monitor IP addresses of those who visit. Most likely that is the way people are banned when they misbehave.

hey for that much you can get three hours with a 50 piece in Los Angeles.

Williams - OSCAR win for 2006! WOTW or STAR WARS - you heard it here first.

This is to all you people who read this board everyday yet never post. I KNOW there are at least a couple of you ( whom I know even ) who read and haven't registered. Do it up - and stop stalking us :')

The Jaws has gotta be a mistake. Sounds funny.

Found some mistakes in the movies (as compared to the soundtrack)
JAWS
Right after the first barrel goes under....
Clarinet line states the fanfare ish motif as a eighth - eight pattern (movie) rather then the dotted eighth - sixteenth pattern (soundtrack).
RETURN OF THE KING
During the Lighting of the Beacons:
The Climax of the huge string part and brass part
on my dvd 48:34
is a different chord then the soundtrack
(trumpet fanfare may be a bit different)
RETURN OF THE JEDI (Old news)
Extra grace notes on the high trumpet during the main title crawl - not on any other star wars soundtrack or film.
Ok sorry for nitpicking
-
I regard his Theme from Sabrina as a one-movement pianoconcerto. It has the same grand feeling as Rachmaninoffs and Addinsells pianoconcertos.
Addinsell's Warsaw Concerto Maybe - not a fair comparison to the Rachmaninoff Concerti IMO.
I think he should write a piano concerto, after all it is his primary instrument. But then again the great piano concerti are just so hard to be compared to, maybe he is like intimidated or something.
-
There are only four prime colours. It doesn't excuse someone from painting fake Mona Lisas though does it?
That's a poor argument.
-
You guys are so picky.....as usual haha. I think it all sounds pretty good comparing to the other engineers who REALLY suck, the ones I can afford to work with.
-
There are only twelve notes. Of course intervals and chords will be in common with one another.
-
OK i will admit I am mostly speaking of Jurassic Park
. This just sounds great. -
I dont know AI very well is it bad??
I am looking at the orchestral scores and listening to the mix. And I just think alot of the mixing is just great - I am wondering how much is done on the stand and how much is done at the board. Like how the williams woodwinds/brass fanfares are in great balance. Anyone got any info on that?
-
Shawn Murphy is JW's mixer and the man is a genious. I believe Willams owes alot of his success and his sound to this man. Only saying this after working with many amatuer mixers who don't actually listen to what is going on in the music but only to the things they need to listen to. (phasing, clicking).
Listen to how well mixed Jurassic Park is, compare it to the other recordings of the suite in concert.
-
If Harry Potter POA was written in 1981 we would all consider this one of his best scores. I believe it to be as good as some of those others, it just hasn't sunk in yet.
-
Good luck, I hear in takes many strings to pull to get into a JW session. Security is quite tight.
-
It is both. It was recorded live. I know some people who orchestrated on it, basically it is layers upon layers. For example everthing the horns play is doubled by synth horns (that distinctive overblow sound). Also they use the trombones and cellos as super doublers, they stay after the session and double the other parts. For example it would be common to have cellos double the viola part after the session. Either way everything is doubled by synth, and the woodwind section is hardly used. To me it sounds like 500 people playing.

Neufeld played (oboe?) on a few JW sessions, that is how they were introduced.
