scissorhands 16 Posted February 16, 2009 Share Posted February 16, 2009 The Daugherty, the Rorem and especially the Rouse are great works too. A must buy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
#SnowyVernalSpringsEternal 10,265 Posted February 16, 2009 Share Posted February 16, 2009 What movies are they from? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scissorhands 16 Posted February 16, 2009 Share Posted February 16, 2009 No movies, they're concert works.Rouse's Friandises was premiered in the Juilliard anniversary, in the same concert in which Williams conducted some other works. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scissorhands 16 Posted February 16, 2009 Share Posted February 16, 2009 Actually, it means they're better. Daugherty is the most accessible thing for a film music fan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ray Barnsbury 8 Posted February 17, 2009 Share Posted February 17, 2009 Cool news! Is "Escapades" comparable to the concert pieces on the soundtrack, or is it more of a different arrangement (besides the sax being more prominent, obvisouly)?

Henry B 50 Posted February 17, 2009 Share Posted February 17, 2009 So is there any way to access the enhanced portion of an SA-CD other than by using an actual SA-CD player? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is "Escapades" comparable to the concert pieces on the soundtrack, or is it more of a different arrangement (besides the sax being more prominent, obvisouly)?More or less. The three movements aren't exact copies of their respective tracks; the additions are pretty much just more sax solos and other little tweaks.

A24 4,326 Posted February 17, 2009 Share Posted February 17, 2009 This CD isn't what I would call cheap. Is there new musical material in the concert version? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TownerFan 4,983 Posted February 17, 2009 Share Posted February 17, 2009 Cool news! Is "Escapades" comparable to the concert pieces on the soundtrack, or is it more of a different arrangement (besides the sax being more prominent, obvisouly)?The first two movements are pretty much the same as heard in the OST album (Track 1 and 3, "Catch Me If You Can" and "Recollections"). The third movement is a bit different (called "The 'Float'" on the OST, track 2), the alto sax has a much more prominent role and there are quite a few very nice extensions, especially a more rousing and exihilarating coda. I heard the suite played live in Chicago in November 2007, with JW conducting and Dan Higgins playing the sax solo. Definitely one of the highlights of that concert.

Neimoidian 14 Posted February 18, 2009 Share Posted February 18, 2009 I put it on my long purchase list. I only hope it won't be OOP until I finally decide to buy it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maestro 147 Posted April 1, 2009 Share Posted April 1, 2009 For those interested in only purchasing the JW contributions on this CD, it's now available for download on ClassicsOnline.The price breakup is a little funky, but it's still a lot cheaper than $20.

TownerFan 4,983 Posted April 2, 2009 Share Posted April 2, 2009 Might get "Joy Ride" (The Float)You should get the whole suite. It's a very good recording, very well played and recorded. Marsalis brings out a more jazzy edge to the piece, imho. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
