NP:Avatar academy promo
Going up to my all time favourites scores. because it's all in one. from new age to orchestral fanfarres.
The unrealeased (until now) music, sounds more than ever from Nicholad Dodd and sometimes sounds out of place. but at the same time it's the best action music of this score, far more powerful than Horner unsuccesful mix of tribal elements with orchestra.
Now we have from "flying island's fanfarre" to the 20 minutes action climax.
I have never seen someone call a score a classic then within the same breathe take jabs at it! You are one odd ball, Jordi!
-Erik-
I never said this is a classic. I never said even it's perfect. in fact, it's far, far from perfect.
I just said it has so many elements I love that it's imposible to not be into my favourites scores. In the same way Lair is. -

Ok... I've never seen someone call a score one of their favorites and then take jabs at it! You are still one odd ball, Jordi.

Why be so negative! If you love it, LOVE IT! I don't crap all over Raiders, Empire, Dances With Wolves, Back to the Future. If they had flaws they would be amongst my all time favorite scores!

I think it's clear that Jordi absolutely loves Avatar, but if he's unable to see the flaws in the work, I think he would have just been that dreadful "fanboy" that everyone would hate to not be (and rag on). -

I don't leave any of those tracks off , because they are part of the "journey".( But I still have my problems with the childs screaming and the 4 notes as a dramatic motif)
Anyway..total time of those tracks: 17 minutes.
Then I have 60 minutes of music from the original album that I really love (how I said, specially the first 5 tracks, wich captures very well Pandora's world). then you can add 20 minutes of sublime action music from the academy promo, and 10 minutes of good dramatic music from the same promo.
you have 90 minutes of fantastic music. With all the elements I like: new age, electronics, big orchestra,tribal chants and percusion, epic, romance, adventure...even electric guitars!!!
If you want, when I have time to listen the Promo I type my playlist for you

Interesting... because back in Decemeber you did and had so many complaints about those individual tracks. But I see that you've changed your mind... or "pulled a Jordi" which isn't surprising.

So, you love 90 minutes of a 150 minute score.... and that qualifies a score for your all time favorites list? Just trying to figure you out, man.

This score shakes me upside down!
I like some of the tracks very much, the ones that really have a buildup and keep on going, but most of it is just under the radar, and too rhythmic to enjoy. It's not an easy score to enjoy, which it shouldn't in the first place anyway. So that last sentence was rather useless. It's my head. It's all dizzy!

While I will never understand Jordi's twisted logic - loving 90 minutes of a score is pretty good going! I can only think of about three or four film scores where I could say I love 90 minutes of them. -

Pretty good sure but if you say you "love a score" or say that it's "one of your favorites" don't you love ALL of it?!

NP: The Film Scores - Bernard Herrmann
I just finished watching the very informative and extremely well produced documentary "Music From The Movies: Bernard Herrmann" and it made me instantly reach for this brilliant recording by Esa-Pekka Salonen and the Los Angeles Philharmonic. I can only take Herrmann in small dosed and I find that the best way for me to experience the man's music is to either watch the film or listen to it in suite form. This is one of finest recordings of film music out there!
-Erik-
PS - Listening to Herrmann's rejected cue "The Killing" from Torn Curtain with the picture as catapulted that cue up near the top my list of very favorite Herrmann cues. And the one person that recorded the cue properly with emphasis on the timpani and percussion during the latter half of the cue was Elmer Bernstein. You can hear that cue on Bernstein's recording of Torn Curtain for the Elmer Bernstein Film Music Collection of recordings!
