Label Threads The Official Intrada Thread

Seeing those McNeely TinkerBell scores at half price is pretty heartbreaking. They’re amazing (honestly they collectively constitute his magnum opus IMO; they’re his Lord of the Rings), and I was really hoping Intrada might tackle the wonderful wintry fourth score (Secret of the Wings) but that looks unlikely now…
 

Highly recommend these to any of you who don’t have them, particularly the first and second (Lost Treasure).

The amount of releases on that page that I bought at full price, and haven't gotten around to listening to yet, is staggering.

I’m glad to see them at that price.  I thought they were nice enough in the movies when I watched them with my kid, but I never considered them $20-nice.  Picked up all three tonight.

Hopefully they grow on you more! Though the original is a wonderful introduction to the musical world, my favorite is the second, perhaps tied with the (sadly unreleased) fourth.

The only titles I’d want from this sale are the Tinker Bells (which I already have) and the rerecordings which are all available digitally and I think in high res.

[Andy 4,070]

To Kill a Mockingbird / Walk on the Wild Side is a steal at that price.

We invite you to take advantage of the nice sale prices attached to a number of our releases, specially discounted from now through October 2, 2022. We don’t run sales like this often. Hopefully you will find some titles of interest, priced to own.

As happens from time to time, we are in a holding pattern on final packaging approvals for several new releases all ready for manufacturing… with some really cool ones in the bunch, too! We’re also amidst some major new upgrades and additions to the Intrada studio while we wait, with quite a few new curves to learn. Fun!

William Stromberg and Anna Bonn are finalizing the complete scores and parts for the two upcoming Bernard Herrmann recordings we are readying. The Man Who Knew Too Much and On Dangerous Ground are the two masterpieces on the docket. The Royal Scottish National Orchestra is again our performing group of choice. Setting the actual session dates has taken a bit longer than what we have encountered in the past for a couple of reasons, one being the growing popularity of the musicians and their magnificent hall. We like to think Intrada has been a factor in their increased profile, even if just in a minuscule way. The other reason is our musician requirements are significantly larger than our previous sessions, with the addition of a larger brass section than we typically utilize. Six trombones, six trumpets, eight French horns, two tubas… and a sizable string and percussion section to balance with all those horn players… as well as a key soloist on the viola d’amore parts for On Dangerous Ground. We're even planning on recording Nathan Van Cleave's fabulous VistaVision logo that appears in front of The Man Who Knew Too Much and so many other Paramount films from the era. Yep. It’s all going to be impressive for sure.

With all these accolades, it sounds like the Tinker Bell scores are worth a blind buy.  The samples sounded good, too.  Just ordered the first two along with Muppets Most Wanted.

[Jay 37,249]

Intrada's next title (going up Monday night Nov 21) is Mark McKenzie's score to Prancer: A Christmas Tale, a new 2022 film

The original Maurice Jarre score for Prancer is a true Christmas score classic, I simply adore it.  I wonder if this new score will use Jarre's music at all, probably not.

Next week hopefully offers Thanksgiving food and family gatherings for everyone and, for certain, Mark McKenzie’s highly personal (and HMMA-nominated) score for Universal’s new Prancer: A Christmas Tale for his fans to enjoy listening to. Gorgeous it is. And following on its heels - after an eternity of red tape and treading water - we can finally bring you Basil Poledouris’s beloved and oft-requested Conan the Destroyer soundtrack, from the actual film’s three-channel session masters, expanded for the first time ever. Yes, this is the original soundtrack with its unequaled vibrant performance and recording.

 

Complicated licensing issues resulted in Basil’s original (and brief) 1984 MCA album program appearing on a second disc. Basil completed the score for the June 1984 release of the movie, jumped right into scoring Red Dawn and guided us into licensing our first release - that very score for Red Dawn, launching the Intrada label. We discussed his two Conan scores at length way back when and happily have not only his 1984 sequel score available but also in our catalog the entire original 1982 Conan The Barbarian score on a 3-CD set, featuring his lengthy magnum opus and a plethora of alternate cues he recorded as well. Conan may look to Crom for his eternal rest, but look to Intrada for his music!

 

In contrast with the excitement of the Destroyer music is a release of newly-recorded premieres featuring delightful original piano pieces written by Dimitri Tiomkin for concert and stage performance, played to perfection by Lynda Cochrane, virtuoso pianist of the Royal Scottish National Orchestra. Lynda has worked with us on our previous RSNO releases as well as having played for composers like Jerry Goldsmith, Elmer Bernstein and numerous others. It’s all great music for you to consider adding to your ever-growing library!

Here are some composers you can look forward to hearing from -- Jay Chattaway, Alan Silvestri, John Beal -- these guys are at the plant. Then we have James Newtown Howard, Bernard Herrmann, Marco Beltrami, Danny Eflman, Jerry Goldsmith, Joel McNeely, James Horner, John Barry, Richard Band, Hans Zimmer -- all on deck.

[Yavar Moradi 2,576]

Roger’s “upcoming” lists are never comprehensive, so you shouldn’t take that as a definite… though Williams would be an odd name to leave off if he’s coming.

Mixed feelings over this. On one hand, it's cool that we're getting lots of scores by great composers. 

 

But on the other hand... Does this mean The Patriot is not coming anytime soon from Intrada? 😥😥😭😭

Oooh, nice of Intrada to highlight small up-and-coming composers who are doomed to live in the shadow of greats because of their similar names!

[Jay 37,249]

Wow, what an exciting list! 

 

Silvestri's been getting so much attention lately its great! 

[Richard Penna 3,663]

Yay, Zimmer's back on their list. Here's hoping for Gladiator - I can't get enough of it at the moment.

 

And JNH... a lot of his scores potentially up for expansion - very exciting.

[crocodile 7,973]

Hopefully, it's Hidalgo or one of the Disney animated features.

Roger's 2021 composer list was: 

 

"Well nothing is predictable, but we're hoping for more stuff by DeVol, Kamen, Goldsmith, Eflman, Williams, Goldsmith, Bernstein, Folk, Goldsmith, Poledouris, Zimmer. But who knows...things change rapidly!"

 

Only 9 of those 11 titles came out in 2021:

1. DeVol - Flight of the Phoenix
2. Kamen - Company Business
3. Goldsmith - Face of a Fugitive
4. Elfman - Sleepy Hollow
5. Williams - Eiger Sanction
6. Goldsmith - Rio Conchos
7. Bernstein - Legal Eagles
8. Folk - Toy Soldiers
9. Goldsmith - Shamus
10. Poledouris - ??? (presumably was Conan?)
11. Zimmer - ??? (presumably was the title that is now on their 2023 list?)

9 additional titles joined their 2021 lineup that were not on Roger's initial list:

1. Burwell - Psycho 3
2. Manfredini - Deepstar 6
3. Goldsmith - The Public Eye
4. Powell - Call of the Wild
5. Goldsmith - Extreme Prejudice
6. Rozsa - Julius Caeaser
7. Bernstein - To Kill A Mockingbird / Walk On The Wild Side
8. Goldsmith - Masada
9. Debney - Clifford

For a total of 18 releases by 12 different composers, while he only had 9 composers on his initial list!

 

 

Roger's 2022 list was:

 

"Composer line up for 2022 (partial) And in no particular order: James Horner, Jerry Goldsmith, James Horner, Michael Kamen, Basil Poledouris, James Horner, Miklos Rozsa, John Williams, Alan Silvestri, Henry Mancini, Jay Chattaway. And hopefully more."

 

10 of those 11 titles came out in 2022

1. Horner - 48 Hrs
2. Goldsmith - Black Patch / The Man
3. Horner - Another 48 Hrs
4. Kamen - Lifeforce
5. Poledouris - Conan The Destroyer
6. Horner - Jumanji
7. Rozsa - Dead Men Don't Wear Plaid
8. Williams - SpaceCamp
9. Silvestri - Cat's Eye
10. Mancini - Lifeforce
11. Chattaway - ???

10 additional titles joined their 2022 lineup that were not on Roger's initial list:

1. Safan - Phantom of the Opera
2. Goldsmith - The Sand Pebbles
3. Rosenthal - Becket
4. Safan - The Last Starfighter
5. Goldsmith - Matinee
6. Horner - Star Trek 3
7. Horner - Willow
8. Goldsmith - Hollow Man
9. McKenzie - Prancer: A Christmas Tale
10. Tiomkin - Piano Music For Stage And Screen

 

For a total of 20 releases by 12 different composers, while he only had 10 composers on his initial list!

 

 

So long story short, there's always more that comes out beyond his early list!

If I had to pick just one it'd probably be The Village. I actually wouldn't go for any of his Disney scores as I think their albums work fine as they are.

 

Sometime I'm sure we'll get Vertical Limit but that score never clicked with me so I don't even have the full album.

 

The Gladiator OST works really well as a concept album but it only contains half the score. He left off almost all of the second half of the movie and did a shit ton of microedits to the rest. Serious overproduction.

I don’t think it’s impossible that we’ll get a Intrada Williams title next year (The Patriot would certainly be amazing!), but just that it seems likely there won’t be one in early 2023.
 

Since there’s still two remaining titles Matessino hoped would be out in 2022 but instead got delayed until “early 2023”, I think those will likely be coming from La-La Land, Quartet, Varèse Sarabande, or maybe if we’re very lucky, Walt Disney Records.

But I would assume if they had any Williams in the pipeline, they would mention it since it's a big - perhaps the biggest - name.
