Will 2,215 Posted August 29, 2017 Share Posted August 29, 2017 This summer I listened to the Azkaban complete score for the first time (prior to that, I had only heard a few scattered cues). I enjoyed it very much. One of my favorite cues was the unreleased 6M5 Pt II, available only in mock-up form. I'd say it's now one of my Williams grails (much more so than "The Rescue of Sirius," which I don't care that much about). I absolutely adore how, in the second half of the cue, Williams writes some really awesome brass figures (maybe they're jazzy - I'm not sure of the correct description) on top of beautiful choir. The chords are just amazing - I can't imagine anyone other than Williams writing something quite like that. The released film version of 6M5 First Frozen Lake is terrific as well, retaining a tiny bit of the brass figures but giving everything a much darker and less heroic tone. Here's an example from the film version of the jazzy brass figures I'm referring to: Anyway, anyone else a fan of 6M5 Pt II? Arpy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gruesome Son of a Bitch 6,488 Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 On 1/12/2017 at 5:04 AM, Richard said: Sorry! I meant the music that starts with bells of some sort, when Indy says "whoever drinks the cup of Christ..." (or something like that). Yeah. The chimes there are bone-chilling for whatever reason. Pure Williams in their simplicity and brilliance. Many of the great composers seemed to know exactly how to score a moment and it couldn't have been any other way. Horner said something to that effect, about knowing there was no better way of doing it than the way he did it. That's a great example, actually. Naturally, it wasn't on the OST or expanded release. I want to vote for Padme's Funeral. The way Williams interpolates the Qui-Gon funeral motif, a grisly rendition of the Force Theme and the Imperial March for the millionth time as though it were the first... Wait, I realize I posted that on the first page. I don't care. I'm saying it again. At least I'm consistent in that regard. Disney, release the complete scores, you money-hungry bastards.

Richard Penna 3,619 Posted November 16, 2020 Share Posted November 16, 2020 That's not really unreleased... just rip it from the DVD. I'd second Padme's Funeral.

Thank you for the clarification. I remember someone on here almost 15 years ago now saying something like Expanded/Complete releases never sound as good as the OST's. However I remember the Lord of the Rings Complete Recordings Releases where the first time i'd thought "Wow this sounds superior to the OST's".

There's really no reason to ever go with absolutes like that. Anytime a piece of music is released on two different albums that each have different mastering, there will always be people that prefer one over the other, 100% of the time. That's just life. I've found the majority of expanded releases sound better than the OST albums, but it's certainly not always true. And sometimes neither is "better" than the other, they are just each different, with their own strengths and weaknesses. Luckily, any music we want to buy these days is always easily sampled online before committing to a purchase so we always know what we're in for. aj_vader 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I understand the appeal of wanting to hear a film score in a 'recording sessions' style, where each cue is separate. However, it's true that many of Williams' cues were written to overlap onto each other and so in that way, when a release presents them as such, it's 'as intended' by the composer.

It's only around 0,75 seconds by the way and it's part of the professional processing to have a certain space before and after the music in a track. You're seriously bothered by that?
