TownerFan 5,097 Posted December 9, 2015 Share Posted December 9, 2015 90 piece orchestra only?Didnt the other scores use a 120 piece orchestra? 90-piece is definitely a BIG orchestra and it's absolutely within the range of previous Star Wars scores, which were always 85 to 90 elements. I think it surpassed 100 only when extra percussion and/or choir were included in the count. Incanus and karelm 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it surpassed 100 only when extra percussion and/or choir were included in the count.The prequels certainly exceeded 85-90, especially by ROTS when the brass and woodwinds were beefed up quite a bit. For this, you've got 12 woodwinds, I think 15 brass, 5 percussion, Randy and probably at least one other keyboardist, at least one harp. That's 35 right there, strings are usually 60 chairs (he might prefer less (50) for these scores which would explain things), so....Of course, this is a combined orchestra so who knows!

skyy38 21 Posted December 10, 2015 Share Posted December 10, 2015 The composer began work last December and basically continued all year, completing the recording in mid-November. His 90-piece orchestra recorded 175 minutes of music, he says, although nearly an hour of that was discarded, modified or rerecorded as Abrams re-edited the film. Snoke’s theme was recorded by a 24-voice men’s chorus.http://variety.com/2015/music/awards/oscar-icons-williams-morricone-and-horner-loom-large-in-score-race-1201657637/So, if the OST is at best around 75 minutes long, it'll mean there'll be 100 minutes of unreleased music.I'm deeply sorry, KM.Get a LIFE!

Incanus 5,787 Posted December 10, 2015 Share Posted December 10, 2015 Well holy moly!I think this is a bit akin to Tintin where Williams had early recording sessions and later revised and modified material to suit the finished film.I'll keep myself fit and in good condition so I can experience the 3 disc release of this score around 2050. mrbellamy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Incanus 5,787 Posted December 10, 2015 Share Posted December 10, 2015 Again I don't really see the huge surprise about this amount of recorded music and the 2 hours+ in the film and the 70 minute+ OST album. It happens every time when a Star Wars score is released and we react to it as it were a huge surprise every single time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crumbs 14,698 Posted December 10, 2015 Share Posted December 10, 2015 Is the 175 minute figure suspiciously specific to anyone else? Why not just say 3 hours, unless there was some kind of musical assembly of that exact minute count? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quintus 5,421 Posted December 10, 2015 Share Posted December 10, 2015 Huh? He's probably just quoting what Williams told him. Jesus Christ the Mel Gibson quota is high here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
