Schindler's List - 2CD 25th Anniversary Edition from La-La Land Records (2018)

[Brundlefly 1811]

Can anybody explain to me, why we're discussing in this thread how the music looks and not how it sounds?

[Jurassic Shark 6549]

Nobody listens to music anymore.

[Holko 5492]

Alright then. It doesn't sound that good.

Because if it looks bad, then it sounds bad.

[mstrox 4213]

It tastes awful.

[Jurassic Shark 6549]

And the smell...

Have you tried it with shrimp sauce? It's delicious.

Some tracks definitely don't sound good, looking at spectrograms just helps us understand what happened and kind of confirms what we can hear.

I thought they smelled bad... on the ouside!

Not in this case, the 16kHz cutoff cannot be heard.

This popping can be heard, however:

It's pretty obvious we're not discussing the 16kHz cutoff. Can't you see all the missing detail on the disc 2 track? Dark or black sections on a spectogram = less data. Even beneath the 16kHz cutoff (in the 'audible for human hearing' range, if you consider frequencies above 16kHz meaningless... which is subjective) there is a noticeable lack of detail compared to the equivalent track on disc 1 (also the sessions).

 

And people raised the audio quality of this track long before it was analysed visually to identify the differences.

There are other spectographs that display the frequencies the way they are audible for the human ear and those indicate how the cutoff at 16kHz affects the listenability - not in the slightest, even if you are generally capable to hear tones beyond that mark.

 

Interesting. Which spectrographic presentations are you talking about?

You can just switch the it's displayed in many programs (physical vs musical).

I still don't think that's what the quality difference comes from. The "lack of detail" is all way above the 6kHz mark and that is where you hear nothing more than overtones already. So, I hear the quality difference, but I don't see it proven in the spectogram.

I wonder when we'll see a colourized version of Schindler's List.

...What annoys me is this gang of OCD people and their loud complaints when things aren't 100% chronological, or there's a second of music missing from the presentation.

Aka Every cue separatists

Aka C + C Crazies😡

I offer only one, because Sister Sara is getting old you know.

I think Shark already used that joke.

We need this music, now more than ever...

 

[bruce marshall 645]

Remind me again: why was this two discs?

Don't think so, but I'll write it down.

Tbh all the idiots on this board blend together in one gooey mass. 😎

[Will 1815]

I have to say, Schindler's List is a score that has really grown on me. Several years ago, I wrote on here that I wasn't a big fan of the score. But as I've gotten to know the score better beyond the opening "Theme" track, I've grown to love parts of it. "I Could Have Done More" is a case in point ("Making the List" is also incredible). This section in particular is devastatingly beautiful: 

 

3:38-3:50

 

 

Question: Is this insert included on the recording sessions, or only the LLL set? I know the sessions include an earlier insert, but do they include the bit I posted above? 

[crumbs 8702]

Nope, the final revised film version insert wasn't in the session leak and premiered on the LLL. 

 

The session leak only had the cue as recorded and the first version of the insert.

You could have done more.

[Jay 19064]

The OST had the original cue with no inserts

 

The leak had that, and an early unused insert in a separate track (technically multiple takes of each in their own tracks) 

 

The LLL has that unused insert in its own track, as well as an edited track of the entire cue with the final film insert integrated (as well as the entire OST) 

 

There's nothing in the leak that isn't on the LLL, outside of source music, clean openings/endings, and takes / portions of takes not used on the OST or in the film
