Wait a second… I thought you were the one who views film scores as “concept albums” and listens to them without any connection to a movie in the first place. 😉

I am sitting on the couch, listening to Samuel Barber’s 1st Symphony right now, and think it’s quite filmic, though it’s not written for a film. And some time ago, I have listened to Morricone’s “Un Uomo da Rispettare” and thought this doesn’t really sound like it was written for a film.

As I said, I have certainly “periods of interest”, but I don’t recall I ever had a period where I was averse to film music, though I certainly had periods where I listened to non-film scores more.
