his upcoming concert work (hopefully finished?)
Wasn’t that a collaboration? Then maybe the chance is good it will be completed. I long planned to dig into his (non jazz) concert works. Currently I know these:
– Concerto de la Amistad (2nd guitar concerto): Unreleased except a DVD I think. I got it from an arte concert broadcast a few years ago…
– Trumpet Concerto
– The Rise and Fall of the Third Reich (originally a documentary score, right)
– Rock RequiemI have these on my list to check out:
– Double Bass concert on “Lalo Schifrin Conducts Stravinsky, Schifrin and Ravel”
– Concierto caribeño, Guitar Concerto & Trópicos
– Cantos Aztecas
– Symphony No. 1 “Lili’uokalani”
– Shifrin Plays Schifrin with some some clarinet focussed works)
– Symphonic Impressions Of Oman
– SCHIFRIN / SCHULLER / SHAPIRO: Piano TriosI read he wrote two piano concertos but I didn’t see any release of those. Any recommendations? Anything else I missed?
I thought I did comment… Yeah really and unexpected bad news even given his age. Again one of the last greats gone. Just played the old GNP Best of Mission Impossible album and just listening to the rerecording album (sadly missed the MI box a few years ago).
I have two books only actually (besides having some magazines from the old times, although no FSM):
– Tony Thomas: Filmmusik (German version of the book “Film score”)
– Fred Karlin: Listening to MoviesI did read some more some decades ago like the “famous” polemic Eisler/Adorno “Komponieren für den Film” and the two “Handbuch Filmmusik” parts by German film composer and professor Enjott Schneider as far as I recall.
Right, the Intrada one I visited as well back then, primarily for announcments and Doug’s corner I think. The whole filmstracks site is a bit strange to use but it seems pretty old and probably features some same problems as the FSM one regarding updates.
I use social media but don’t really discuss there either 😉
As you already know I am also primarily a lurker and not a poster and so I am not a member of any other… I always thought but its just a time issue a bit if you really want to add something valuable. So I lurk on FSM, jwfan forums and a German one called Soundtrack Board (which has the same problem of too few members apparently) and occasionally MainTitles.
Right now, FSM is refurbishing. Well, soon, anyway. Curious how that whole thing will turn out.
I predict there will be lots of “the old one was far better” posts by then 😉
Very sorry to hear about those bad times besides that already awful tinnitus. I personally will generally not post about such things in public.
Sometimes, when a member is new, posts are automatically put in “pending/spam” folder. Nothing to worry about if that happens, they will be approved once I log on to the board.
Just to note that this isn’t a mistake: This is actually intended behaviour for first time posters to avoid that if a spammer gets through can post any nonsense.
I have to admit I never explored the Beach Boys besides knowing their hits. I remember I once had Pet Sounds from the library years ago but it didn’t really click with me. So much music to expore and so little time…
Don’t really know much of him and don’t really have him on my listen list. I have these albums digitally:
– WARRIORS OF HEAVEN AND EARTH (don’t remember anything of it, must been years I listened to it)
– LORD OF THE RINGS (a musical he did with someone else. Some nice dramatic tracks)
– ELIZABETH THE GOLDEN AGE (which he did with Craig Armstrong who is not really a favorite of mine actually, don’t remember it either right now)A few quick by me that should be generally orchestral:
Carlo Siliotti THE PUNISHER
Carlo Siliotti JULIUS CAESAR
Carlo Siliotti NOMAD THE WARRIOR
Franco Piersanti IL COMMISSARIO MONTALBANO (ok, actually more chamberlike)
Francesco de Masi’s THUNDER (have it as LP) / THUNDER 3 (bascially italo western scores so only partly orchestral)
Piero Piccioni ROMULUS & REMUS
Nino Rota GATTOPARD
Marco Frisina Tristano e Isotta
Marco Frisina Michele Strogoff, il corriere dello ZarAh, the sword and sandal ones are also called Peplum films which I forgot: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sword-and-sandal
There are actually lots of Italian pirate, Roman sword and sandal and other adventure movies at least in the 50s and 60s that have rather traditional symphonic scores. For example these Ursus, Hercules, Samson or Maciste movies. Sadly not familar with these but the Alhambra label release some of these scores by Lavagino I think.
I also only know bits and pieces here and there. Lots via compilations by various composers of mostly the easy listening groovy ones. I have some compilation Franco Miccalizzi did with his band primarily from the Italian police movies. Great groovy fun. Or bits of various westerns.
Often lack the connection to the movies itself a bit although I surely saw lots of those adventure ones in my youth.There are hundreds, if not thousands of CDs I would have loved to buy, if money and space weren’t an issue.
Yes, same for me. However I have most of Goldenthals listed or Superman IV digitally and that’s totally sufficient for me (even if not all lossless). For said money reasons I gave up the “I only really have it if I have the CD” credo long time ago…
