#SnowyVernalSpringsEternal 10,265 Posted March 14, 2016 Share Posted March 14, 2016 Call Of The Champions Woke up feeling like a bit of heartwarming Williams Americana. An excellent summary of John Williams more patriotic and festive material. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bespin 8,481 Posted March 14, 2016 Share Posted March 14, 2016 Excellent choice! Strangely, that's a work that was not recorded a lot.. and that never made any John Williams compilation so far.

#SnowyVernalSpringsEternal 10,265 Posted March 14, 2016 Share Posted March 14, 2016 I was actually referring to the CD, not the track. In Europe the CD was released under the name Call Of The Champions rather then The American Journey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crocodile 8,012 Posted March 15, 2016 Share Posted March 15, 2016 Lost in Space by Bruce Broughton. Isn't it weird that this 2.5 week rush job is my favourite score of this composer? For whatever reason, it speaks (sings, even) to me the most out of all his works. It could be fun if Disney hired Broughton to do one of those several Star Wars spin-offs at some point.

Koray Savas 2,251 Posted March 16, 2016 Share Posted March 16, 2016 Bless by Hans Zimmer and Lorne Balfe A solid fantasy score from Balfe. Still puzzled how these two ended up on a Korean MMORPG, but hey, it has some cool moments. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Incanus 5,714 Posted March 17, 2016 Popular Post Share Posted March 17, 2016 Michael Collins by Elliot Goldenthal: Gotta love this one. So much energy, passion and blazing dramatism on display. For a seasoned Goldenthal fan the style, the gestures and the mannerisms are familiar but there is something irresistable about this brand of the composer's orchestral writing. Added appeal comes from the Irish atmosphere. Terrific! Dixon Hill, publicist and Romão 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Incanus 5,714 Posted March 17, 2016 Share Posted March 17, 2016 Titus by Elliot Goldenthal: Since I already listened to Michael Collins I thought what the heck, Titus is next. The composer says in the liner notes that in Rome you can embrance eons and it is exactly what he does on his soundtrack which is eclectic but such a damn fine display of his skills. He works as the unifying voice for the strange big band and jazz, classical orchestral writing, acid trippy techno-ish concoctions and massive Gothic chanting and ghostly rumbling choral outbursts that finally climax in the elegiac Finale that seems to be one of those seminal Goldenthal ideas he reprises in one form or another in many of his scores almost in calling card fashion. I remember taking a chance with this album when I bought it on a whim but it certainly paid off. publicist 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
