tharpdevenport 4 Posted November 29, 2011 Share Posted November 29, 2011 This one is obviously an older score. The genre will likely be quite apparent. The score sounds like it's done with about five percussion instruments, mostly snare drums. I can't give clues to who the composer is, because there's some confusion as to who scored it:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nB7afIlciNc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Omen II 1,235 Posted December 4, 2011 Share Posted December 4, 2011 Did anyone here watch the recent BBC series of The Choir? For the uninitiated, choirmaster Gareth Malone brings together groups of people who have never sung before (and in many cases would never have dreamt of doing so) and teaches them to sing. In the latest series he went to RMB Chivenor in north Devon to form a choir from the military wives and girlfriends whose husbands were away serving in Afghanistan. I thought it was the best programme on TV all year. The end result was a song written specially for them by composer Paul Mealor and based on extracts from letters home from the soldiers.

tharpdevenport 4 Posted December 6, 2011 Share Posted December 6, 2011 Using a fake "Prometheus" trailer from a couple years ago, I used music by a favorite composer of mine to rescore it, 'cause I wish he'd get a job like this, and making the video only made me further concur with the initial thoughts. Again, not my trailer, so... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nick Parker 3,040 Posted December 12, 2011 Share Posted December 12, 2011 Hello everyone! I realize it has been an awful long while since I have been to this website, but after pre-ordering The Adventures of Tintin and War Horse I just got so excited that I set up camp outside of my community mail-box these past several months! There were some tough nights, but thankfully I was able to rummage through enough Thanksgiving and Christmas food parcels (and the occasional roadkill bunny rabbit) to keep myself alive.Anyways, the primary reason I am typing this is to promote a performance of "John Williams is the Man" for saxophone quartet my friend recorded a few months back, if you will excuse the blatant advertisement. Even though we are jointly credited for the arrangement, most of the work was his: the only contributions I made were the Dracula transition and the Imperial March/Cantina Band counter-play, as well the idea of including the Star Wars theme after Jurassic Park. I hope you people like it, and feedback of any sort would be gladly welcomed!(I apologize for the generic "video", by the way.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

More importantly, it's a comedic video about John Williams--we don't get a lot of those, so they must be posted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KingPin 201 Posted January 5, 2012 Author Share Posted January 5, 2012 Not sure if has been posted before, but this is an excerpt from a flute masterclass taught by Leone Buyse, who was the principal flutist of the Boston Pops during the 80's and has been featured on some of that orchestra's recordings under John Williams. Midway through the clip, she tells a neat little anecdote that relates the maestro himself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smeagol 0 Posted January 15, 2012 Share Posted January 15, 2012 I just found while browsing around on youtube. It's from a TV special about the making of Quantum of Solace. At the 4:25 mark in this video (Part 3 of 4 of this featurette) we get a couple of minutes of David Arnold talking about the score and playing around in his studio. It doesn't show anything too interesting, but I always like it when I find footage of composers in their studios/recording sessions. The quality isn't very good since the guy who uploaded it recorded it from his TV, but it's still kinda cool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The concert featured several other works by Elmer (including The Ten Commandments and The Man With The Golden Arm) as well as other great film music by Steiner, Waxman, Raksin, Herrmann and others.
