    NICK GLENNIE SMITH - We were soldiers

    Shame this composer isn't getting assignments anymore. Well, at least credited assignments.

    Vite Strozzate - Ennio Morricone

    Enjoyable action score with a lot of familiar parts reminiscent of other scores, but it's a decent package.

    From what I've heard Glennie-Smith doesn't feel like doing it anymore, really, just helping people out and writing songs for his girlfriend. I personally think that the experience he had on The Rock broke him down and was a rather traumatic one.

    NP: The Perfect Storm - James Horner

    Magnificent!

    -Erik-


    Nothing else to say. One of his last great works.

    I think you mean one of his many great works.


    No, one of his LAST great works is a proper assessment. There aren't too many post-2000 scores that reach the heights that The Perfect Storm does!

    -Erik-


    Agree 200 %. Only The Four Feathers almost reaches those heights.

  3. There are post-2000 scores I do prefer to The Perfect Storm. Enemy at the Gates (very underrated), House of Sand and Fog, The Four Feathers, The Missing...

    THE MISSING is okay, one of his lesser efforts though.

    That's fine but I'm talking about complete scores. IMO, Spider-Man doesn't even come close to The Perfect Storm.

    1920 Bitwa Warszawska - Krzesimir Debski
    Just the first track so far. But my, how beautiful.
    Are there any more Polish composers besides Debski and Korzeniowski that I should familiarize myself with? I'm shockingly impressed by both of them.
    I love you all. Never change. Well, unless you want to!

    "That's good! You've taken your first steps into a larger world..." wink

    By all means have a listen to Woijcheck Kilar, Michal Lorenc and Zbigniew Preisner for a start!
    If you don't know anything by them, you'll be pleasantly surprised! (Although I tend to find Balkan/Eastern European composers to often be on the moody side -which, I should hasten to add, I actually like!-. Debski is really breaking the mold on that).

    Hmm, somehow I didn't realize Preisner and Kilar were Polish. I have a handful of each of their scores...Kilar's "Portrait of a Lady" is in my new-acquisitions-listening-rotation and I've always had a fondness for Preisner after his gorgeous themes in The Secret Garden.

    Never really heard of Lorenc so that will be my next investigation smile

    Matt, you're into a great ride with those 2 especially Preisner. Check out his red-blue-white trilogy scores, the Dekalog, the beautiful country, it's all about love.....such great music to be discovered!

    Many of my favorite Horner scores were released post-2000. Specifically A Beautiful Mind, House of Sand and Fog, Enemy at the Gates, and Avatar. It's a bit early at this point but I could see Spider Man joining that list some day.

    Not!

    Ranks alongside Under Fire and Papillon (and a few others) as one of my least-listened to Goldsmith scores. Don't like it much at all.

    if you think this is awful, yet you value Brian Tyler's music so highly, then something is wrong with you dizzy

    Legend is not Goldsmtih's best, but it is classic Goldsmith nonetheless. Which means few could / can match that

    LEGEND is a Goldsmith masterpiece, a flawed one yes ( no need to keep going over those syths ) but an incredible and monumental effort, such a superbly complex score for which efforts he basically got shat on, it may well of been his efforts on this which led to him streamlining his scores.
