indy4 155 Posted April 13, 2012 Share Posted April 13, 2012 I ordered Daugherty's The Metropolis Symphony. From the samples I've heard, it's a really neat work. Also got Charles Mingus' "Ecclusiastics" on Amazon MP3's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richard Penna 3,694 Posted April 13, 2012 Share Posted April 13, 2012 My Intrada order just shipped Galaxy Quest, plus I gave in and ordered Star Trek: First Contact. The extra music is damn good.Also just made the classic error: listened to the clips for LLL's other release, Broke Sky. Damn, I rather like this...

Joe Brausam 214 Posted May 30, 2012 Share Posted May 30, 2012 You got the Naxos version of Ben-Hur that was just released? I believe that one is expanded from the old Silva release, right? I may have to get a copy of this new one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marian Schedenig 8,198 Posted May 30, 2012 Share Posted May 30, 2012 I think it's identical. They just split up some of the lengthier tracks. Total duration is the same I think, and it's the same recording as the previous release (which is different, and with a considerably larger orchestra, than the full score recording released on the DVD/Blu-ray I believe). Don't know if there's been any remastering.It's also not on Naxos but on "Threefold Records", with a "Carl Davis Collection" icon on the top. I've also seen a Naxos credit for it somewhere (Amazon I think), but I assume it was just mislabelled. Or perhaps they're owned by Naxos or something. Price certainly was regular for a score release, i.e. higher than the standard Naxos price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe Brausam 214 Posted May 30, 2012 Share Posted May 30, 2012 Ah, yeah Amazon credited it as Naxos, so I assumed it was them. Good to know I don't have to upgrade my old copy though, thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marian Schedenig 8,198 Posted May 30, 2012 Share Posted May 30, 2012 Liner notes (nice ones btw) simply label it a "reissue". Also no credits for any new work on the sound. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Naïve Old Fart 9,534 Posted June 2, 2012 Share Posted June 2, 2012 I've just bought "The Prince of Egypt" in my local charity shop for 99p (that's about $1.60).Can't wait to hear it. I love "Playing With The Big Boys". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
indy4 155 Posted June 2, 2012 Share Posted June 2, 2012 Prince of Egypt is great. If you can you should definitely get this CD: http://www.amazon.com/The-Prince-Egypt-Wynonna/dp/B0001FT52S/ref=sr_1_7?ie=UTF8&qid=1338678163&sr=8-7Most of it is throw-away pop music, but it contains some cues from the score that aren't available anywhere else. Of particular importance is "The Chariot Race," which is one of Hans Zimmer's greatest single cues. I would imagine that even those who dislike Zimmer's style would enjoy this one, it has many Golden Age influences (especially near the end).

I would imagine that even those who dislike Zimmer's style would enjoy this one, it has many Golden Age influences (especially near the end).While I love Prince of Egypt and I think it's one of Zimmer's finest achievements, you have to give credit where it's due: The Chariot Race is a Harry Gregson-Williams' cue, using Zimmer's themes.

indy4 155 Posted June 3, 2012 Share Posted June 3, 2012 Oh okay. I don't take the time to figure out who wrote each Zimmer cue, but I will say that HGW just won a lot of points in my book (and Zimmer just lost a few). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crocodile 8,017 Posted June 20, 2012 Share Posted June 20, 2012 Just ordered Music from the Edge, which is in fact John Corigliano's rejected score from Martin Campbell's Edge of Darkness.I'm really really curious what this score is like. From the few samples I heard it sounds very good indeed. Can't wait!Karol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
indy4 155 Posted June 26, 2012 Share Posted June 26, 2012 Ordered the following:Treesong - John WilliamsRosewood - John WilliamsPresumed Innocent - John WilliamsThe King and I (1977 Revival) - Rodgers and HammersteinSwingin' for the Fences - Gordin Goodwin's Big Phat BandThe top three are releases I've been meaning to get for a long time, especially Presumed Innocent. But I'd imagine they make for a pretty dense and possibly depressing listening experience, so I wanted to lightened it up with the last two releases. I don't know much about King and I - I've heard some songs but I've never seen any incarnation of the work - but I love Rodgers and Hammerstein (who doesn't) and I've been told this is one of their best. 1977 revival sounded the best from the Amazon reviews - I almost bought the film soundtrack, but a reviewer said it contains dialogue and SFX. My friend recently bought the last release, and it sounds awesome. Especially "Mueva los Huesos." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt C 454 Posted June 28, 2012 Share Posted June 28, 2012 I placed an order for Richard Band's Dragonworld from Intrada last night (the samples were really good!). I thought about adding Supernova to the order, but I think it's going to linger around the specialty outlets for a couple of months after it goes OOP.
