    The Mountain Men - Michel Legrand

    One of the best surprises amongst recent soundtrack releases. This is a wonderfully exciting action/adventure score.

    NP : THE IPCRESS FILE - John Barry


    Lots of variations on a ( corking ) theme, most of which isn't in the film so I guess Barry filled it out to make the album and a very fine album it is. The film is perfectly scored and well worth your time watching if you've not seen it.

    NP : DEADFALL - John Barry



    Wonderful score for a very uneven film, the centre piece being a 14 minute guitar concerto, the film is worth watching for this sequence alone where Michael Caine is robbing a mansion of it's safe a concert takes place next door conducted by John Barry, no less.

    NP : ZULU - John Barry



    What more can I say, a classic and deservedly so! A powerhouse of a theme.

    "Cloud Atlas": Tom Tykwer, Johnny Klimek, Reinhold Heil

    Not something to rock the world, but a very solid and pleasant score to listen to. Haven't seen the flick jet.


    You'll love it when you see the film. It's brilliant.


    Ah! So you've seen the film? Did I miss something in the recent viewing thread?


    Of course i saw it but i am saving it for my review of the score smile Loved it.
    Love Maintitles. It's full of Wanders.

    Good!
  2. This morning I listened to some cues from Dimitri Tiomkin's "Fall of the Roman Empire" after I saw the film yesterday night. Great music, especially in the quiter moments.

    In the afternoon I was at leasure to rest on the couch. I put my earphones one and listened to John Williams "Return of the Jedi", the Fox release of my favourite orchestral score. I love edit and mix of these 1993 releases.

    Just now I saw and heard the Berlin Philharmonics conducted by Simon Rattle with their traditional New Year's Eve concert:
    (In German)
    Jean-Philippe Rameau: Tänze aus Les Boréades
    Georg Friedrich Händel: Drei Arien (Cecilia Bartoli)
    Antonín Dvorák: Slawischer Tanz C-Dur op. 46 Nr. 1
    Camille Saint-Saëns: Danse macabre op. 40
    Maurice Ravel: Daphnis et Chloé, Suite Nr. 2
    Johannes Brahms: Ungarischer Tanz Nr. 1 g-Moll

    Now we are awaiting some guest! Have a fun time everybody!

    Bach's music is vibrant and inspired.

    I'm too lazy to describe my thoughts on this score, but luckily someone has already written them for me. How kind of him, whoever he is!

    You really don't know?
    It's James Southall, who is running that site.
    Or were you kidding and I didn't get it?

    Speaking of languages (which, on a serious note, I love), I vote that 'queue' is the most retarded word in use in the english language.

    For example:
    une queue de chèvre: a goat's tail.
    Not to be confused with an "oeuf de chèvre": a goat's egg.

    Or, for another example:
    La queue de deux cités: a tail of two cities.

    I meant its use is retarded, not the actual root of the word I should add!

    Srsly.
    Queue. It should be pronounced 'kyoo-eeh-ooh-eeh'.
