    Yes. JNH was Composer of the Year last year, and he did attend. In a lot of cases, this composer returns the year after and gives a concert. Hans Zimmer has been mentioned in a news letter, but more as an example of a "top composer".


    oh man, I'm already fainting now smile

    but I expect JNH to be there, nothing less punk
    waaaaaahhhhhhhh!!! Where's my nut? arrrghhhhhhh

    I voted for Wolfram de Marco's score to Loft. Not the most enjoyable listening experience on cd, but its 14 minutes long string pizzicato piece did really set the mood during the movie. It was either that or Clint Mansell's The Wrestler. Somehow I didn't hear anything that really pleased me this year...

    Star Trek gets my vote. It's by no means the best score of the year, but it's certainly the most fitting in context of the movie and has the most addictive theme I've heard in ages.

    Don't forgt to vote for your favourite score of the past 12 months, for the World Soundtrack Public Choice Award:
    http://www.worldsoundtrackacademy.com/n … mp;lang=en


    I got some more information about the concerts:

    14 October: Concert at the Handelsbeurs, names to be announced later
    15 October: Shigeru Umebayashi in Concert, at the Vooruit Ghent
    17 October: World Soundtrack Awards, 9th Edition


    I asked if JNH would be attending and do a concert, as he was composer of the year last year, but so far, this is not planned.

    Handelsbeurs? Were the bloody hell is that again?
    It is weird though that for now, nothing's announced yet! Either they are working hard to give us huge celebrities, or they have stinkers and it will be a dud confused

    Why is it not possible to vote for Iglesias' CHE? confused
    It wasn't even composed yet before the last edition, so this score is just unable to win at all? What's fair about that?

    That's at the Kouter

    Shigeru is announced. I' looking forward to that actually!

    I find it a bit rude to say 'duds' since each year, I seem to have a great time, and I'm constantly surprised at how interesting they keep their programme. Big names are of course spectacular, but last year's Yared's concert was way more special to me than the Williams concert, even though it obviously was awesome too. wink

    No, that was de Vlaamse Opera. Handelsbeurs is a bit more to the left when you're in front of it.

    Smaller than Vlaamse Opera concerning capacity when seated (almost 400 people), but if it is a standing concert (I doubt it) 800 people can join.

    I didn't say duds concerning the last couple of years, but it is strange we haven't heard anything yet, I find that strange and I am therefore a bit on alert

    Is this getting more exclusive and less for the actual filmmusic lover each year, or is it my imagination? I mean, do we have to e-mail now to get a few of the remaining tickets instead of being able to order them?

    Alexandre Desplat (the whole second half of the event)
    See seperate thread

  23. I can't say this is my thing. If they had brought in only one big name composer it would've been sweet, but no. Maybe I'll pass on it for this year.

    What about the Shigeru concert Gilles?

  25. I'll have to think about it, I'm very specific about these things, as in very hard to persuade. I need to have music in the concert that I know or at least a composer I like.

    You should come.

    And you might be killed.

  27. It isn't what most would have wanted, but at least it will be fun, new material is always fun
    consider me there

    don't think this is your cup of tea as well, make the right choice and save your money instead for next year
    waaaaaahhhhhhhh!!! Where's my nut? arrrghhhhhhh
  28. Like saving my money is such a problem for me.

    But it's because the music has to interest me too. I'm not too fond of this new batch of composers, Desplat doesn't do it for me at all. And no I will not suffer nightmares because of it. tongue

    Yes. But it includes reception with composers et al. But I'm not sure that is the right direction for attracting fans...
