    CHRISTOPHER YOUNG - Creation, the true story of Charles Darwin

    Incredibly beautiful themes lead the violin-fronted score in a deeply thoughtful and mature work that echoes James Newton Howard's THE VILLAGE and parts of Snow falling on Cedars, fused with Chris Young's own mesmerizing Sweet November and his gem that is The Shipping news. Wholly captivating, deeply melodic and magically lyrical, this marks perhaps his most impressive work to date and contains one exceptional composition that is the last piece on the album, 14. Humility and Love.

    As a 'bonus' it contains another almost identical to the original 'rendition' on Arvo Part's extremely popular and influential "Fratres" for strings.
    Love Maintitles. It's full of Wanders.

    On a funny side-note, the Arvo Part quoting piece is aptly entitled "Partly Part" smile

    NP: Piano Works ~ Craig Armstrong

    Wonderful! I like the serenity of some pieces, the stormy sounds of others and the film cues are perfect indeed. I close my eyes and imagine myself playing. I wish I could... it's been so long since I had the chance.

    Not even 'Jake's First Flight'? Or, being an action man, not 'War'!??


    "Jake's First Fight" is not bad but its no "Flight of the Griffins" or "Ride of the Firemares." And "War" is, IMHO, one of the most uninteresting action cues I've heard from Horner.

    I find it to be one of Horner's most interesting action cues in recent years, especially the complete version as heard in the film. Better than 'Flight of the Griffins' in my not-so-humble opinion.

    I'm also listening to something wonderful and equally hard to pronounce:

    Une Hirondelle A Fait Le Printemps Philippe Rombi

    I love this man's music. He definitely has that spark that sets him apart from mediocrity. Not that I'm complaining about all the wonderfully romantic music he's written, but I would love to hear some action scoring from him! There are some resemblances to Williams' music here and there in his style, which is alright by me.
    cool

    I know. I've been enjoying his music for a couple of months now, but it did take me a little while to realise just how good it is. Must have really not been in the mood for it at the time...
  2. Didn't you once state that you tried to like Rombi, but you didn't?

    NP: The Lord Of the Rings - Leonard Rosenman

    A childhood favourite, NOTHING like the Shore works, deeply intellectually challenging (and quite atonal) at times....and I still love it!
    Great theme and some of the most ominous scoring that side of Middle Earth. Helm's Deep is a particular highlight, as is Mithrandir (though it's really TOO closely molded on Holst's Venus.)

    Helms Deep is an absolutely incredible track, very unsettling, rhythmic and memorable. I don't think there's one single cue in all of Shore's work that matches this though overall there's no comparrison and Shore wins hands down.

    hope I made sense cos I'm pissed
