Pieter Boelen 740 Posted March 25, 2018 Share Posted March 25, 2018 Is the music from this available anywhere? I saw a rumour that this link has it: https://www.go90.com/videos/261MflWkD3N But it doesn't work for me, because I'm not in the USA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post artguy360 1,843 Posted April 12, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted April 12, 2018 It pains me that we don't have a clean rip or official release of this music yet. It's such a beautiful piece. Once, Sandor, Arpy and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post D_nev 89 Posted December 29, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted December 29, 2018 Hello everyone! I am new to this community and am thrilled to be here. My short question is, does anyone know if there are plans for an independent release of the score from the short film "Dear Basketball"? Thanks in advance and sorry if this has already been discussed, I did a quick search to see if this has been covered before and found nothing!

D_nev 89 Posted December 29, 2018 Share Posted December 29, 2018 Thanks everyone for your replies! This piece played on the organ would be magnificent!! I am sad sad that there is no plan (thus far) to record/release it. I can’t get enough of his lush Americana orchestral pieces! Hopefully someday! Hope you all have a good day!

pete 907 Posted December 30, 2018 Author Share Posted December 30, 2018 Pretty much all you can do is grab the audio from either of the above videos until a legit release happens. Hopefully Williams' interest in expansions of his scores will result in smaller projects like this and others getting released. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Josh500 1,615 Posted December 30, 2018 Share Posted December 30, 2018 Actually I cannot imagine an official release just for this. If it is officially released, then probably as a part of a compilation, or maybe as a bonus track. D_nev 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D_nev 89 Posted December 30, 2018 Share Posted December 30, 2018 I thought that too. It’s too small of a piece to be released on it’s own. Maybe he’ll put together an album of some of his film scores that weren’t directed by Spielberg and Dear Basketball will be on that! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Josh500 1,615 Posted December 30, 2018 Share Posted December 30, 2018 Yeah, possibly. I was thinking about releases like Call of the Champions, which includes many shorter miscellaneous works. Well, there's always hope! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Illustrious Jerry 3,356 Posted December 30, 2018 Share Posted December 30, 2018 @D_nev where's the best place to listen to the music? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D_nev 89 Posted December 30, 2018 Share Posted December 30, 2018 Unfortunately, I don’t think there is a place to listen to just the music. I usually just watch the short film or skip right to the end credits where the “suite” is played. Hopefully some one day there will be a release or maybe someone can grab the music out of the film somehow! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr. Know 326 Posted December 31, 2018 Share Posted December 31, 2018 As far as I know, the film was never even made available in high-definition, so the various rips of the end credits are very lossy. Really unbelievable how poorly this was distributed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Josh500 1,615 Posted December 31, 2018 Share Posted December 31, 2018 It's all about money! How are they gonna make money off of a 5 minute clip? There's only YouTube. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D_nev 89 Posted December 31, 2018 Share Posted December 31, 2018 I hadn’t considered that point, that’s very true. I wouldn’t even think they’d want to make money off the film in the first place. I don’t know though ha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
#SnowyVernalSpringsEternal 10,265 Posted December 31, 2018 Share Posted December 31, 2018 It's not about money, its about prestige. This film is someone's vanity project. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D_nev 89 Posted December 31, 2018 Share Posted December 31, 2018 That’s also fair. That makes a lot of sense, it is unfortunate though that the film can’t be enjoyed in HD.

Richard Penna 3,687 Posted December 31, 2018 Share Posted December 31, 2018 I don't know anything about this film, but why did JW score it? Odd project for him to show an interest in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Odd project for him to show an interest in. He was approached by Kobe, not the other way around. Kobe is a longtime Williams fan. I guess Williams is a basketball fan at some level too (we know he loves baseball and golf, for example, so he is presumably somewhat of a sports fan).
