Amer 2,080 Posted June 24, 2022 Share Posted June 24, 2022 I became aware of his legendary name when I read that he had to conduct some sessions for John Williams during JURASSIC PARK because Williams had some back issue and had to rest. RIP. Bespin 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bespin 8,480 Posted June 24, 2022 Author Share Posted June 24, 2022 I think people need to learn more about Artie Kane. This shadow worker, this magician was involed as a pianist, score copist, arranger and conductor on SO MANY scores since the 60s, and for SO MANY composers. A page of film music history is being turned. I think the best place to actually see all his "credits" on film scores is Discogs. Then Imdb seems to patch some wholes too. Just to name a few scores he was involved in... Well... It will make a great playlist for today. Raiders of the SoundtrArk and Andy 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post TownerFan 4,983 Posted June 24, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted June 24, 2022 Artie Kane was a true “L.A. Studio Legend” indeed. His career is the epitome of the greatness of that pool of musicians. Here’s the tribute from The Legacy of John Williams: https://thelegacyofjohnwilliams.com/2022/06/24/in-memoriam-artie-kane/ ConorPower, Edmilson, ricsim88 and 3 others 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Edmilson 7,393 Posted June 25, 2022 Share Posted June 25, 2022 He conducted a lot of great scores during the 90s, not only Jurassic Park but also a lot of stuff from Elfman and JNH. However, during the 2000s, they stopped working with him and instead chose Pete Anthony to conduct their scores. I don't know why... Maybe Artie retired?

publicist 4,643 Posted June 25, 2022 Share Posted June 25, 2022 RIP, and because it fits the hot day i'm going to enjoy his appropriately aggressive low-end piano playing on this appropriately aggressive western score. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
