Giacchino conducted a cue from this score at his London concert last Friday and it was sublime....
Nice! What other Giacchino scores did it remind you of? ------------------- It certainly had a Mexican flavour and was highly melodic as expected.....Not sure about comparisons with other Giacchino scores as I'm a bit late to the party and am just building a Giacchino collection....
Gareth Edwards had a pop at him last week, at the concert, about his silly track titles on Rogue One. I don't think he cares though! Actually, I think I've read here before that it's his team who create most of them, not MG. I change them anyway when I'm transferring tracks to my on the go player.
The silly track titles are not only annoying, but a bit disrespectful of the source material. Such track titles might work for a hair brain comedy score, but over and over again on every project?

I sure hope no one told you about the wacky track titles he came up with for ROGUE ONE, because...yeah.
Disrespectful? I don't know. To me, they're just relentless and almost never funny. They remind me of a colleague who still answers questions impersonating Phil Hartman doing Ed McMahon – "You are correct, sir!" Enough already!

According to Giacchino, he takes the work very seriously - the track titles, not so much. You can focus on the first part of this (very true) statement. Personally, I honestly have no problem what a track is called, for me it only matters how good the track is.
Just wanted to say I loved the film, music and score immensely.
Mexico has their own version of the soundtrack - where it's spread over 2 CDs, one being songs in Spanish and score on the second CD. Personally I prefer the sound of the Spanish songs over the English versions, both versions are available on Spotify in case you want to compare.
