It's one along with WILLOW that really should get some proper release - and yes, I do not mind the "musical relations". The score is just fantastic in Edward Zwick's great film. Those were great times, back then...    Posted:   May 7, 2020 - 2:28 AM     By:   Filmcan   (Member) With 'Legends' now finally remastered, this score is now the glaring omission of all James Horner's releases. I know we're incredibly spoilt for score releases these days, but all the more reason for this one to be given the love. You can tell this story meant a lot to Horner, as I feel this score is several notches above and has a unique richness and thematic depth. It's also painstakingly performed and orchestrated. The original release really struggles with the lower registers of the score and that stunning performance by the LSO truly deserves a LLL or Intrada treatment. Just my thoughts. What a masterpiece.    Posted:   May 7, 2020 - 3:42 AM     By:   Nono   (Member) With 'Legends' now finally remastered, this score is now the glaring omission of all James Horner's releases.

Glory was recorded in US. I wouldn't mind an Intrada reissue (no compression and minimal EQ if any), but not a LLL treatment.    Posted:   May 7, 2020 - 4:30 AM     By:   Hurdy Gurdy   (Member) Most of the guys who do these score restorations and re-mastering's* (Mike Matessino, James Nelson, Chris Malone etc) do work for Intrada AND La La Land? *and do a bloody great job, in my opinion    Posted:   May 7, 2020 - 4:48 AM     By:   Nono   (Member) Most of the guys who do these score restorations and re-mastering's* (Mike Matessino, James Nelson, Chris Malone etc) do work for Intrada AND La La Land? *and do a bloody great job, in my opinion They must meet the desires of the labels they work for. Even if some sound better when they work for Intrada, I still prefer when Douglass Fake does the mastering job himself.    Posted:   May 7, 2020 - 4:50 AM     By:   moolik   (Member) Was never my cup of tea...I rather listen to Carl Orffs Version. No Horner bashing...dont get me wrong.    Posted:   May 7, 2020 - 5:26 AM     By:   Hurdy Gurdy   (Member) Well, it's only one cue that mimics Orff. And he's hardly the first film composer to dip from that well. Goldsmith won an Oscar for it!! The greater steals are from Prokofiev and RVW. But it's what Horner does with them and his own material, that makes this score so magnificent.    Posted:   May 7, 2020 - 8:48 AM     By:   Shaun Rutherford   (Member) Well, it's only one cue that mimics Orff.

But it's what Horner does with them and his own material, that makes this score so magnificent. I don't even think it sounds that close to Orff, unless you're talking about something that's not Carmina Burana. Sounds like Horner used it as a jumping off point, but that's it.    Posted:   May 7, 2020 - 9:12 AM     By:   Hurdy Gurdy   (Member) The ebb and flow is the same as the Orff piece, plus the pay off. But yeah, Horner skirts it quite nicely.    Posted:   May 7, 2020 - 9:33 AM     By:   Mike Esssss   (Member) Well, it's only one cue that mimics Orff.

I've always thought the same thing. Carmina Burana is an easy mark and clearly provided inspiration and perhaps a temp track, but it's not a lift.     General Discussion: Glory - 20 years later.    << < 2 3 4  >   Go to page:  1 2 3 4   First Post    General Discussion • Trading Post • Non-Film Score Discussion  Profile • Preferences • Community Rules • Help/Contact • Search Board You must log in or register to post.   Go to page:  1 2 3 4
