Try Jerry Fielding's western scores, or even JW's own "The Man Who Loved Cat Dancing". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

filmmusic 1,828 Posted April 30, 2013 Share Posted April 30, 2013 well, i found in another thread:"From it's central theme, to it's full throttle horror... not to mention it's beautiful love theme"http://www.intrada.net/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?f=13&t=5127which makes it seem like there is a love theme, other than the main theme.

Incanus 5,714 Posted May 2, 2013 Share Posted May 2, 2013 Probably track 5 Mental Boy. I will check to be certain when I get back home from work.The same piano melody is featured on track 5, Mental Boy and track 14, Angela Undress.Upon further examination it would seem to be Angela Undress that is heard in the clip.

chuck 154 Posted May 2, 2013 Share Posted May 2, 2013 Quick question: Is it true that JG really hates the harp? I listened to some scores where he used the instrument rather creatively and I find it difficult to think that if JG hated the damn thing, then why does he include it in his orchestrations? It's not like the harp is a rather prominent part of the orchestra. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Naïve Old Fart 9,527 Posted May 6, 2013 Share Posted May 6, 2013 I don't know about JG hating the harp, but Franklin J. Schaffner disliked the piccolo, and David Lynch dislikes the harp (according to the "Dune" liner notes).I guess that JG (or any composer) would have to consider the efectiveness of any instrument, before he/she made any decision to use, or not use it. What does the harp say about a scene, or character? Darth Vader's theme played on a harp at the end of ROTJ is very effective. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chuck 154 Posted May 7, 2013 Share Posted May 7, 2013 Well I've read a lot of film score reviews most especially on filmtracks.com and they expressly say that JG has an unexplained hatred of the harp instrument. So I wondered, if JG hated the instrument, why does he still included it in his orchestrations? Again, it's not like the harp is a pretty significant part of the orchestra (I meant no offense).

Pieter Boelen 740 Posted May 12, 2013 Share Posted May 12, 2013 I haven't seen War Horse yet, but I've got it checked out from the library. Is it a good movie for the family to watch on Mother's Day, or should we pick something else?As per Steven Spielberg's explanations during the Making Of, he deliberately made it in such a way that it might be fit for a younger audience than, say, Saving Private Ryan.There is no gratuitous blood whatsoever. Actually, you don't really see anything truly nasty. But you definitely do get the idea.After all, it is still a war movie. Not everyone survives and some characters die who shouldn't deserve to die.I hope that helps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Naïve Old Fart 9,527 Posted May 20, 2013 Share Posted May 20, 2013 A quick "Hook" score question:Why is neither "Pick 'em Up", nor the film version of the basketball game, on the recent La La Land re-issue? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Incanus 5,714 Posted May 20, 2013 Share Posted May 20, 2013 Probably because big W didn't want them there or the sources for them were nowhere to be found. Hook was apparently quite a challenge to put together because the materials were stored all over the place and some were lost (and it turned out many 1990's scores suffer from the same problem). None of the film versions with inserts were implemented in the LLL set either, not for the Lost Boys Chase, The Never Feast nor the Ultimate War.Perhaps Jason or someone else very deeply versed in all things Hook can provide a more in-depth answer.

Marian Schedenig 8,193 Posted July 4, 2013 Share Posted July 4, 2013 They're pretty much all the standard concert arrangements, Cantina Band having some weird synth effects. I love the performances, though most dislike them. I think it's universally agreed the Imperial March is awesome though. I also love the smooth, slightly more relaxed take on The Asteroid Field. Only Here They Come is lame, not just slow but genuinely unexciting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
