    Can you describe what kind of music Holbrooke's is Tom?

    NP: ORCHESTRAL WORKS (Aaron Copland)

    A great 2CD set. Right now, we're into the "old American folk songs", which isn't my favourite part, but still. "El Salon Mexico" is up after that.
    I am extremely serious.

    Tim I'm working on a review of the new CPO recording of 4 of his works. An overall impression to me is that he was born in the wrong century or he never figured out a way to get to Hollywood because his music fits the genre. The romantic theme of "The Vikings" reminded me of Wuthering Heights. If you didn't know Tchaikovsky and I told you it was one of his rare works you'd likely believe me.

    I'm thinking that this might be one to publish at main titles also. It also has a wonderful 14+ minute symphonic variation of three blind mice.

    I love Shostakovitch variations on 'Tea For Two'.

    NP: CONCERTO FOR HORN AND ORCHESTRA (John Williams)

    There are hints of the suspense music in WAR OF THE WORLDS and MINORITY REPORT here, I think. Love the haunting opening movement.

    NP: LA MER... Debussy. This is a recording that I got in the 60 CD package for $30.00. I think that the popularity in the classical world for Debussy is he has a more modern sound yet he is accessible. Beautiful piece.

    It is indeed. Debussy seems to be very popular among the orchestral, classical-style film score fans.

    Talking of Debussy, did you ever catch up with the piece I recommended some moons ago, Engulfed Cathedral?

    No, never got to that. I'll check it out on Spotify, if it's there.

    I never heard it, and it seems by now obvious that the once promised recording by Clevenger and the CSO will never happen. slant

    However, I do have the score reduction and the opening seems to be very atmospheric indeed. Distinctivlely in Williams hand, but I wish the notations would reveal what the instrumentation is at least once in a while! Most reductions do this, but for some unexplicable reason nobody has bothered to do this with any of Williams' publications. angry

    I was going to post a youtube vid but all the quality was so bad I didn't bother.

    NP: SAMPLER (The Sparks)

    Sparks are always very lyrics-heavy (little space for the music to shine), which isn't usually to my liking, but it's very catchy once you get used to it. Stuff like "Where did the groove go?" or when the groove finally DOES kick in in "Dick Around".
    I am extremely serious.

    NP: THE VISITORS (Abba)

    It's the only Abba album I've got, but damn it's good! In fact, it's really the only studio album of theirs that I enjoy from start to finish, without any cheesy Eurovision Song Contest-type songs!
