    That's a steal. You should have got it. sad

    Darn, darn, darn.

    NP: Georges Delerue ("Great Composers" compilation)
    Does the fact that I feel just as much love for Delerue and Jablonsky (although different kinds of love to be sure) mean that I am open-minded in my musical tastes, or that I am just plain weird? smile

    Doctor Who "Children In Need" Cardiff Millennium Arena Concert (2006) - Murray Gold

    Were you watching the video or is there a CD/DVD available?


    Ahhh, there IS a bootleg DVD available.
    What I did is get a copy of that and extract the soundtrack (which is in amazingly good quality!)
    I then proceeded to edit it to cut tracks to a proper format and create my own CD.
    Works lovely!

    It's a great score! I'd like to know what you think?

    You love Jablonsky? Well, I love Beethoven and Giorgio Moroder so who am I to say how weird you are!? dizzy wink

    Open-minded within film music certainly. But surely you must draw some sort of line as to which composer you think deserves more respect?

    I love a KFC just as much as a fancy restaurant meal, just for very different reasons. I would still say the fancy restaurant meal is by far the superior choice.

    Yes, I would.
    But love is a result of how much I enjoy the music, not how much I respect it.

    Completely agree, love isn't logical. But with that in mind, I'm not entirely sure what your point was?

    I feel like the film music fan community is rather polarized between people who have a great preference for more traditional film music and people who have a great preference from more modern, pop-influenced film music like that which usually comes from Team Zimmer. And given that I have equally strong tastes for both, I kind of feel stuck in the middle.

    And ear plugs. wink

    But yes, Seven years in Tibet is excellent! The main theme is definitely one of my favourite themes, also since it's centered around a cello performance.

    No need to feel stuck in-between anything. Just listen what you like, let yourself enjoy what you love and stop thinking so much wink

    Nobody's going to have a go at anyone for saying they love a certain composer more or the same as another certain composer (well, I hope not anyway). But I guess on the flipside, if you were to say Jablonky is better than Delerue, it would understandably create a little unrest! (Which you didn't of course. smile)

    NP: Atonement - Dario Marianelli

    Although I think the score in general is pretty good, I'm still completely addicted to the Elegy For Dunkirk cue. I just love how the strings build so passionately and the vocals fade in and out. A very soothing but thought-provoking track. I still haven't seen the film but I have watched the scene that this cue accompanies on YouTube and it works brilliantly.

    cool

    Pretty much the only score that has won an Academy Award in the last 4 years that I've been a film music fan that actually deserved it...

    Btw I think The Omen is a fabulous score! There is enough quiet/tender music to keep the creepiness from being overwhelming.

    I recently purchased the box set of the Varese deluxe editions because Amazon was selling it really cheap. So I have all three but I haven't gotten to the sequel scores yet. I will, once I have listened to the original a few times.

    NP: Fateless - Ennio Morricone
    Gorgeous beyond words. Everytime that ascending theme appears, the veil between the present world and eternity momentarily pulls away.

    ...or something. smile

    And I really want to see the accompanying film after the comments about it in the Recent Viewing topic! I plan on purchasing it next month.

    I love it, too. I just finished creating a short 4:37 suite from that score for my next compilation album.

    I got the first 57 seconds of the Prologue then jumped ahead to the great Russian choir theme heard during the end of that track. I then ended the suite off with the latter half of the finale. It works.

    A brilliant score. One that is not talked about enough. Truly one of the great comic book film scores out there. A dynamite theme, thrilling action material and a spinetingling finale that you will want to repeat over and over again! I also created a suite out of this one as well. wink

    The Final Conflict is quite different from the previous two Omen scores, let me know what you think Matt?
