Such as Vladimir Cosma (through a friend's recommendation of La Boum). What a massive filmography! Any fans like to point me to something do dip in to? Thanks.    Posted:   Mar 25, 2010 - 2:46 AM     By:   MD   (Member) Vladimir Cosma: 40 Films, 40 Bandes Originales http://www.amazon.fr/Vladimir-Cosma-Films-Bandes-Originales/dp/B002UOUUTA/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=music&qid=1269506702&sr=8-1    Posted:   Mar 25, 2010 - 3:21 AM     By:   SCOREMIX   (Member) I can highly recommend Le Jaguar (1996) which also is with 2 Bonus Track in the Box-Set Vladimir Cosma: 40 Films, 40 Bandes Originales Its a really beautiful extremley melodic symphonic score with interesting local music of the south american set in Brazil. The first track (Ouverture) is an excellent piece. In total you never can put Vladimir Cosma into one generic music genre as he changes his styles from movie to movie (beautifiul orchestral scores change with popstyle movie scores or even songs scores as for La Boum). In resume is Vladimir Cosma an extremley interesting composer.    Posted:   Mar 25, 2010 - 3:44 AM     By:   Urs Lesse   (Member) I think the one thing that can be generally said about Cosma is that his film music is usually very easily accessible. My personal recommendation: L'AS DES AS (The Super Ace), right now unfortunately only available as a download. Oh, and let me add that the 17 CD set mentioned and linked to above is far cheaper than you might expect, so don't ignore the link prematurely. And I believe it even includes previously unreleased tracks from LA BOUM.    Posted:   Mar 25, 2010 - 7:15 AM     By:   Maleficio   (Member) This is the best place to access the music of Vladimir Cosma, with lossless downloads, sound samples: http://www.qobuz.com/interprete/vladimir-cosma/telechargement-ecoute-albums They have even started reissuing LPs, that have never seen a CD release, as lossless downloads.    Posted:   Mar 25, 2010 - 1:35 PM     By:   shadowman   (Member) I think the one thing that can be generally said about Cosma is that his film music is usually very easily accessible.

Just visited this site. A true cornucopia of Cosma; looks like more than enough material for another box, maybe two.    Posted:   Mar 25, 2010 - 8:09 PM     By:   OnyaBirri   (Member) What else did he do in the mode of L'Affaire Crazy Capo?    Posted:   Mar 25, 2010 - 10:08 PM     By:   Maleficio   (Member) You can't go wrong with "Les Aventures De Rabbi Jacob."    Posted:   Apr 21, 2010 - 2:42 AM     By:   Urs Lesse   (Member) Having already praised the incredibly low priced yet comprehensive Cosma 40 Bandes Originales box, let me now – that I have eventually received it 10 days ago – single out LES AVENTURES DE DAVID BALFOUR as an instantly catchy, highly melodic score. I have started to play all 17 discs a couple of days ago and am now on the third round. While I found some of the "funny" scores included uninteresting first, I find myself enjoying the whole box more on repeated listens. However, not much love here for Cosma's biggest success ever, La Boum - it sounds a bit like a source music album. Those who are better versed on Cosma might be able to enlighten me. (OK, I have now re-read what's been said about it above. It probably served the movie which I never saw – which applies to virtually every score in this box – , but as a standalone album, I just don't like it.) Oh, and I second Scoremix' recommendation of LE JAGUAR. At times, it remotely reminds me of Barry's Out of Africa.    Posted:   Apr 21, 2010 - 5:26 AM     By:   Maleficio   (Member) Oh, and I second Scoremix' recommendation of LE JAGUAR.

There is no doubt that that score will be on it. I can't wait!!!    Posted:   Apr 29, 2010 - 9:53 AM     By:   Urs Lesse   (Member) I heard that it would include his "Belmondo scores" among others, so I guess the inclusion of L'AS DES AS is very likely.    Posted:   Apr 29, 2010 - 9:57 AM     By:   Maleficio   (Member) Where was this news made available?    Posted:   Apr 29, 2010 - 10:02 AM     By:   Urs Lesse   (Member) Word of mouth from close to Cosma, too.    Posted:   Apr 29, 2010 - 10:20 AM     By:   Bill Carson, Earl of Poncey   (Member) Michael Strogoff and - as mentioned above - rabbi jacob were always my faves.    Posted:   Apr 29, 2010 - 5:02 PM     By:   MD   (Member) Box vol.2 - what a great news...I hope that there will be also these four scores 1. 2. 3. 4. Sorry...youtube overload    Posted:   Apr 29, 2010 - 10:04 PM     By:   shadowman   (Member) If L'AS DES AS is in the 2nd box, hopefully it will be the complete lp, and not the truncated version which was available as part of the Cosma cd series a few years ago. Hopefully, Banzai, L'Animal, and the Asterix scores he did will also be in this forthcoming box. I'm looking forward to it already.    Posted:   Jun 7, 2010 - 3:41 AM     By:   RED SHIRT BASIL (or looks like...)   (Member) I hope the second Cosma box to come will contain the wonderful score for "La neige et le feu" (Snow and fire) - fingers crossed , it's near impossible to find the original Pomme Musique release for this one.     General Discussion: Vladimir Cosma - recommendations?    < 1 2  > >>  Go to page:  1 2   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
