Give it 3 months and I'll ask the same thing again Erik.
Did you try my recommendations?
I did get Leningrad featuring the New York Philharmonic conducted by Leonard Bernstein.... but one look at the track listing and I knew it would have to be an album I would have to give my full undivided attention to. Unfortunately, I haven't had a full hour and 14 minutes to myself in quite sometime so I might just have to throw it on one day during a not so busy period at work.
NP: The Fall of Berlin - Dmitri Shostakovich
Adriano conducting the Moscow Symphony Orchestra
Sublime!
-Erik-
Ahhhh! The 7th is truly sublime, the best workout I've ever heard of the symphony is by Kiril Kondrashin and the Moscow Philharmonic, a brilliant performance but, unfortunately, poorly recorded. I haven't heard the Bernstein but I have no doubt it's in good hands.
p.s. I'll try and REMEMBER NOT to bug you again next time I see you NP Shostakovitch

I'll have to agree too with liking HOUSE OF THE FLYING DAGGERS So much, from all that craze with the asian swords, sandals and flowery forests craze that hit the world those years, it's easily the most outstanding. Umebayashi delivered a beautiful score, as he always does anyway.Love Maintitles. It's full of Wanders. -

NP: Surf's Up - Mychael Danna
I love the main theme. Some of the stereotypical surfing music is less interesting to me, but the main theme more than makes up for it. -

NP: Knight And Day - John Powell
It's alright. The percussion is a bit overbearing. There's not a cue without a constant beat or rhythm behind the orchestra giving the album little to no breathing room. It's not really like Mr. & Mrs. Smith as the clips suggested. The closest thing Powell's written to it is Hancock, only this lacks a decent theme and instead has a handful of serviceable motifs.
The best cue by far is Trouble On I-93 (it reminds me of Pluto Nash) followed closely by Bull Run (the latter has several pauses in it which are a bit of a bitch). They're both very exciting action cues. Rooftops is also epic. The rest of the album is full of nice mainly rhythmic music (although not just plain percussion line Green Zone).
Powell scores usually take a few listens to truly appreciate, so I'll give it 3/5 for now but it could go up to 3 and a half, but probably not higher than that. -

I'd agree. I find House of Flying Daggers far better than Hero. Looks, story, score.

NP:Basic Instinct (Goldsmith)
A perfect listening for a hot sensual night. Without any doubt in my top 10 all time favourite scores.
the main theme aside, the action music really rocks. Some of the most impressive action stuff goldsmith ever composed. -

226 Suite - Requiem for Showa - Akira Senju
I love this composer's writing style. I've been following his progress since V Gundam and he hasn't let me down yet. This is a really good score. Highly symphonic, melodic, at times brooding, romantic, tragic, soulful, and most of all, gorgeously grand. A bit Mahler, a bit Beethoven, all classy music. -

True, how can we pinpoint "ONES" in a career that has over 300 scores? Okay sometimes he comes up with stuff like Rampage and Il fiore delle mille et una notte, but SO many gems to make up for that. We didn't even mention the hidden masterpiece that is La venexiana.
Indeed. Another masterpiece, perhaps even more hidden, is I promessi sposi. It's a single CD filled with extraordinary music. I hear that the series should contain about 6 hours of music though, so a more complete release would be a dream come true.
Rampage and Il fiore delle mille et una notte are indeed bores. I find the latter far worse though. The dark moodiness of Rampage reminds me of White dog, and while it isn't the most exciting score in the world, I do find it listenable when I'm in the right mood.
