bruckhorn 105 Posted December 5, 2022 Share Posted December 5, 2022 Neumation Music publishing has sent out an e-mail listing it's upcoming titles: Beetlejuice The Goonies For Your Eyes Only Spider-Man 2 No target dates for releases and includes a caveat that other releases might pop up. Cover art provided appeared to be movie poster art and should be considered placeholders.

filmmusic 1,823 Posted December 5, 2022 Share Posted December 5, 2022 Wow! Impressive! I wonder though why Spiderman 2 and not 1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neumation 12 Posted December 6, 2022 Share Posted December 6, 2022 Steve Bartek suggested Spider-Man 2, so that narrowed down the choice between the two. Both Spider-Man scores are exceptional examples of early 2000's Elfman. Either would have been solid choices. Yes, the images in the newsletter are only placeholders. Our illustrator is hard at work on bespoke art. We have no plans to use theatrical poster art or stills for our publications, though there may be an exception or two in the future. We made the choice early on to commission new art that is more in line with our branding. These are all in the proofreading phase. A few smaller publications may be interspersed, such as Les Baxter's "The Passions." After engraving 2000 pages the past few months, the proofreading and layout phases are taking a more leisurely pace than originally intended. Slow and steady... filmmusic 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is some red tape involved with putting multiple composers work in a single book. Those cues may be available separately, at a later date. We are pondering digital releases or supplemental print publications for odds and ends that don’t make it into the books. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps someone who knows the score best, can tell us? edit: I counted 52 cues in the Neumation publication contents. Here we have 36 tracks. Maybe some tracks combine cues, but I'm not sure, reading the titles.

Jay 37,322 Posted May 30, 2023 Share Posted May 30, 2023 Even if it was, I'd love a standalone expansion very very much! It's sort of surprising that that one hasn't been tackled by a specialty label yet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m glad to have it, but most fans of the score feel it’s not a particularly faithful rerecording as it was reconstructed by ear from the film (they didn’t access written scores for it). We strongly prefer the original album even though it’s shorter. The rerecording is also not even close to complete, as this new book dramatically reveals. It’s only “complete” in terms of what made it into the film but Barry wrote a ton more music than that and a NEW, actually complete recording needs to happen some day.

Shared at the John Barry group on Facebook: Quote Coming this spring from Neumation Music, the first John Barry study score publication: THE LAST VALLEY. Engraved from the recently recovered orchestrations by Bobby Richards. Includes: An introduction essay by Jon Burlingame. A breakdown of all 48 cues explaining the various postproduction edits and unused/alternates. The unused song lyrics. This book has been in the works for quite awhile. We consulted all the production companies attached to the film and contacted the estates of the producers—no one could find a single scrap of paper from the production. What’s here is all that is known to exist. I was very happy to have had input from the late Gergeli Hubai shortly before his passing. Coming much later will be an article about Bobby Richards with comments by his family and discussion of his work with Barry in his own words, excerpted from an archival recording! And from @bruckhorn’s link which you quoted: Quote Thought for many years to be lost, the manuscripts were recently discovered. This edition is engraved from the original orchestrations by Bobby Richards. Yavar neumation and filmmusic 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will it be the ear reconstruction or the original manuscripts engraved? We will never publish transcriptions, an original manuscript is a requirement for all of our publications. The Nic Raine transcription is more of a reimagining of the score than it is an accurate representation of what Barry actually wrote.

I wanted to ask, aren't these sealed like Omni and Chris Siddall's publications? No, we don’t seal the books with shrink wrap. It was a deliberate choice to avoid contributing to plastic waste. Which is also why we use recyclable shipping packaging. On 4/3/2024 at 9:49 PM, DangerMotif said: Any idea when the Spider-Man 2 book is coming out? It will be ready when it’s ready. It is a 900 page manuscript and has very dense orchestrations, very laborious to engrave. filmmusic, Tom Guernsey and Marian Schedenig 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
