tpigeon 3 Posted April 6, 2006 Share Posted April 6, 2006 Will this piece ever be released officially? I would think that he has a large enough fan base that it would warrant release. I'm very much enjoying this, though. It's terrific.Ted Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nightscape94 965 Posted April 6, 2006 Share Posted April 6, 2006 I read an article a few months back that stated "Serenada Schizophrana" was adapted by a female composer to an IMAX film, with Elfman's supervision or blessing, or something along those lines. I'll see if I can dig it up.Tim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BurgaFlippinMan 7 Posted June 30, 2006 Share Posted June 30, 2006 Whats this actually? Btw I've always been curious. Where and how did Danny learn to write for orchestra?

QMM 4 Posted August 1, 2006 Share Posted August 1, 2006 Elfman's next symphonic work from soundtrack.netGrammy-winning, three time Oscar-nominated composer Danny Elfman will premiere his latest symphonic work, "OVERTURE TO A NONEXISTENT MUSICAL" on September 15, 16 and 17 at conductor John Mauceri's farewell concerts at the Hollywood Bowl. To help celebrate Mauceri's sixteen years of leading the Hollywood Bowl Orchestra, Elfman has composed an eight minute work which the composer describes as "a big, fun, boisterous and slightly crazy piece written to bid goodbye to one of film music's biggest supporters. I imagined it as a grand overture to something that doesn't actually exist. Many themes... as if taken from a larger work... some kind of imaginary musical or ballet." John Mauceri and Danny Elfman's first collaboration was for Sony Classical's upcoming recording of Elfman's "SERENADA SCHIZOPHRANA", a full length symphony which had its world premiere at Carnegie Hall last year. The Sony CD will be in stores on October 23. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

QMM 4 Posted September 24, 2006 Share Posted September 24, 2006 If you go over to soundtrack.net, there's an ad on the top right of the page under the banner for the cd, it has previews for all the tracks in good sound quality. Or just go here to play itYou can order it hereLast track is called Improv for Alto Sax, it's not numbered as part of the movement, a surprising and welcome addition!

Ollie 1,059 Posted September 24, 2006 Share Posted September 24, 2006 You can definitely hear Herrmann's influence in the cues.There are times I wish Elman would write more like this and stay away from synths. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Composer_Fan 2 Posted October 4, 2006 Share Posted October 4, 2006 Always nice to see film composers write for concert. Yes, it is. And it gives me something to throw in my music professors' faces when they say film composers aren't up to par with "classical" composers.... Some of them don't even know that JW wrote concertos.

scissorhands 16 Posted October 4, 2006 Share Posted October 4, 2006 I'm really impressed. Sincerely, I think this is the best thing Elfman has written since "Edward Scissorhands". I had read very good reviews when this was premiered, I expected something good and innovative, but not to such an extent. Definitely more interesting than most of the contemporary music.The lyrics in Spanish in the 5th movement, "I Forget", were surprisingly funny Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr. Breathmask 555 Posted October 4, 2006 Share Posted October 4, 2006 Incidentally, the latest FSM podcast covers this.

David Coscina 3 Posted October 5, 2006 Share Posted October 5, 2006 I'm also very impressed with this work by Elfman. I just watched HULK last night on cable television (the buggers CUT the desert tank battle though- what a bunch of idiots!) and I still think it was a strong effort for Elmfman, especially considering he had like 1 week to write the whole score....

Romão 2,274 Posted October 5, 2006 Share Posted October 5, 2006 IMHO, it's also by far the best Marvel movie, and one of the best superhero movies next to Batman Begins and the first Superman. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tpigeon 3 Posted October 5, 2006 Share Posted October 5, 2006 I'm told I know nothing because I'm not familiar with the comic book, as if that has anything to do with the quality of the movie. I thought the movie was quite good as a character study as well as an action vehicle. Bana was terrific in the role. Ang Lee also did a remarkable job capturing the exhiliration of rage and destruction. The Josh Lucas character was a bore, but all the others were at the very least interesting, and I just loved Bana's exploration of the role. The final showdown was not anywhere near as compelling as the desert chase and surrender in San Francisco, which was the true high point of the film. But I agree with you, Merkel, I think my three favorite comic book character movies are Batman Begins, the original Superman, and The Hulk.Ted Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
