Bespin 8,475 Posted September 5, 2021 Share Posted September 5, 2021 The classical piece we hear in that movie "key scene" is the Cello Concerto in B minor (Allegro) written by Antonín Dvorák. The Nessun Dorma version we hear, is a previously released version, well I think (Mehta and Pavarotti). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Richard Penna 3,669 Posted September 5, 2021 Share Posted September 5, 2021 Not necessarily. If it's stock music it may not be. Will this be another case where an expansion happens, and the omission of one source cue which may or may not be Williams, causes mass carnage?

Bespin 8,475 Posted September 5, 2021 Share Posted September 5, 2021 Only to say that, remove the source music from the score and some parts will be missing. That's what I said: good luck with that! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richard Penna 3,669 Posted September 5, 2021 Share Posted September 5, 2021 Do you just mean we'll hear the score and it may not sound how people are used to because the source isn't there? That's a fact of life for score fans. As soon as you're in the realm of source music, or any sort of non-score material, a producer is in an unwinnable position.

Like Intrada did with Tension; The Kiss from BTTF. Nope it's not like that. Williams' music is a continuation of the classical piece, they're not layed over one another.

Like Intrada did with Tension; The Kiss from BTTF. I still hate that they completely omitted iconic unique music arranged and recorded specifically for the movie with unreleased film mix elements. Not that T; T K shouldn't have also been included separately, but what the hell. And then they reissue it by nixing half the material. And even that second disc included badly performed early takes like Clocktower instead of later at least somewhat refined ones (surely with an entire day dedicated to it they got better?). 2 minutes ago, Brundlefly said: Williams' music is a continuation of the classical piece, they're not layed over one another. Does JW's material pick up from a stock/licensed recording or did he rerecord it himself? In the latter case the solution obviously has to be its inclusion.

Brundlefly 2,385 Posted September 5, 2021 Share Posted September 5, 2021 It is like the A.I. situation, where a non-Williams piece is integrated into a Williams piece in a way, so that it just doesn't make sense to omit the "source music" part which is, in fact, not even source music. The boot cuts the non-Williams part out and we have an ugly fade in there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Richard Penna 3,669 Posted September 5, 2021 Share Posted September 5, 2021 All that is assuming that they were legally/financially able to use something by another artist. They said at the time that their costs were 'enormous', so maybe only Silvestri-composed material was on the table in order to make the project doable at all. 31 minutes ago, Holko said: And then they reissue it by nixing half the material. And even that second disc included badly performed early takes like Clocktower instead of later at least somewhat refined ones (surely with an entire day dedicated to it they got better?). They reissued it as a single disc as they hit their maximum units on the original release, but wanted to keep the score in print somehow. http://store.intrada.com/s.nl/it.A/id.9907/.f?sc=13&category=21780 Quote Due to the incredible popularity of that original release (which sold the maximum number of units allowable under license and is now out-of-print), Intrada is proud to offer, in cooperation with Universal Pictures, a follow-up release containing just the contents of the first disc in that set, which features the score as heard in the film.

Additionally, there's also an optional alternate extended coda included in the score of the original 7M3, so there's potentially two alternates for this cue, depending on what actually got recorded. 10m4 New - Playing in the Kitchen has previously been identified as the second half of the OST track 'Darryl Arrives', but it's much, much shorter than what's heard there, which doesn't seem to be in the sheets at all. I wonder if this was something recorded specifically for the album, especially with the splashy "concert ending". The bootleg track 'Voodoo Witches' matches the written 10m4 New. blondheim 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How long roughly would you say the complete score is? Somewhere around 70 minutes, I'd say. One CD is probably enough, unless there's a significant amount of material missing from the sheets. I also just realized 'Levitation', though it oddly has no cue number attached, appears to be an insert for 'The Destruction of Daryl' and accounts for that alternate version. The OST has 11m4 as written, and the film version has a middle section replaced with 'Levitation'. crumbs 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
