So this collection is for show or was given to you? None in wrappers; the light might be creating an optical illusion here. THE TEMPEST has a bit of worn booklets; probably because Goldenthal carried it around with him in a bag. He gave me this personally after an interview in Ghent a few years ago, so I've felt it was more important to keep it for that reason than to replace it with a pristine copy. By the way, Robert Piaskowski (boss of Krakow FMF) posted a few pics of Goldenthal on his Facebook feed. Seems like he has landed in Krakow, and is hanging out with his hero Penderecki in spectacular surroundings: karelm and crocodile 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crocodile 8,016 Posted May 30, 2018 Share Posted May 30, 2018 Just came back from the concert. Really enjoyed the concerto. Something between icy Charles Ives and film noir. Very cool. This was the programme: Programme: Krzysztof Penderecki — Three Pieces in Baroque Style Elliot Goldenthal — Concerto for Trumpet and Strings [dedicated to Tadeusz Kościuszko, world premier] Michael Nyman — The Piano for Strings* Krzysztof Penderecki — Threnody to the Victims of Hiroshima for 52 Strings Krzysztof Penderecki — Symphony No. 2, I-II Moderato — Allegretto Krzysztof Penderecki — Polymorphia for 48 strings Krzysztof Penderecki — Symphony No. 3, IV Passacaglia — Allegro Moderato Tine Thing Helseth — trumpet National Polish Radio Symphony Orchestra Dirk Brossé — conductor It is also worth (or not) mentioning I had a minor accident in my room a few hours before the concert. Slipped in the shower and smashed into a glass cubicle cutting myself all over my body (thankfully not head fir the most part). Lot of glass and blood on the floor... But got to the concert as they ended up being mostly superficial. That Penderecki music was a fitting coda to my day. 😂 Karol Taikomochi, Disco Stu and Thor 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crocodile 8,016 Posted June 1, 2018 Share Posted June 1, 2018 Tell me about it. Thankfully, I didn't need any. Having a nurse parent with you does help. So it's healing quite well. Since we're in the Goldenthal thread. I visited a local music bookstore and they had those two beauties in stock (on Amazon they would cost me £100 by now).

I cut a 7 cm piece out of the sole of my right foot on our post school graduation trip, when a floor tile in a swimming pool was missing a corner. So much blood indeed! A friend fished the missing bit out of the water and they tried to sew it back on at the local clinic, but failed (not for lack of trying, a bit over 20 stitches, even though the anesthetics didn't work), so they transferred me to a hospital and managed to do it there (with working anesthetics, fortunately).

crocodile 8,016 Posted June 3, 2018 Share Posted June 3, 2018 OK so Final Fantasia, as it's called, featured mostly the most Wagnerian, wondrous and tonal material from the score Race To Old New York,The Kiss (I think), Zeus Cannon, Adagio & Transfiguration etc. The Toccata and Dreamscapes matetial is completely absent. But that's understandable given the fact Goldenthal already re-used all this material for his Symphony in G Sharp Minor. It's a very pleasant suite and one his most accessible as well. But boy, does this short fella know how to make some noise! Karol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They don't go into too much detail about his film career, sadly, but I was thrilled to hear Goldenthal rank Heat as one of his top 3 scores.
