I hear rag-time influences.The first piece is by Broughton (up to about 1:20), the second piece is by Newman (see the credits at the end, appearing at 3:03).

Dixon Hill 4,236 Posted January 8, 2015 Share Posted January 8, 2015 I confess I'm not particularly interested in either the Broughton or Newman pieces, particularly after hearing those excerpts, fine as they are, though not my thing. Giacchino I could go either way with. He's the wildcard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A24 4,546 Posted January 8, 2015 Share Posted January 8, 2015 I don't know what people are expecting but, given the nature of the project, I bet none of the composers will go for obvious romantic piano or film moods or (Gymnopédie, The Piano, et cetera).

Blah I hope not. That's possibly the most boring sort of music: quasi "classical" piano. Though if someone channels Satie I'm all for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thor 8,242 Posted January 8, 2015 Share Posted January 8, 2015 I thought the concert was last year! Seems like they've put up another because of the CD. I assume the composers are not present this time (at least not all of them, and not Williams). If I lived close to Boston, I would have gone.

Dixon Hill 4,236 Posted January 8, 2015 Share Posted January 8, 2015 It's in LA, not Boston...so the composers could very well be present, except for Desplat probably. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
