WONDERFUL with a capital W! I have a question for my friends out there. I have a great recording of Storm Cloud Cantata and the song "Whatever Will Be" by Doris Day. In your opinion, where would you put these two pieces in the already great running order in Intrada's "Man Who Knew Too Much" release? Chronologically, the cantata should be placed in between “Arrival and Embassy” and “Embassy Hall.” Que Sera Sera is a bit more difficult to pinpoint since it occurs at several points in the film.    Posted:   Apr 18, 2023 - 6:06 PM     By:   dogplant   (Member) all the hallmarks of Stromberg-conducted Herrmann recording. Precise, engaged, adrenalized. Amen. Bill channels Benny like no one else.    Posted:   Apr 18, 2023 - 6:39 PM     By:   danbeck   (Member) Listend to the music last night.

I included "Storm Cloulds" after the film version of the finale and "Que Sera Sera" as the last track, after the original finale.    Posted:   Apr 18, 2023 - 7:38 PM     By:   jonathan_little   (Member) This is a fabulous recording. It sounds wonderful, the performance is great, and the conducting is right on. Listening to the orchestra come in on "Blindness" without a bunch of distortion and harshness brought tears to my eyes.    Posted:   Apr 19, 2023 - 1:37 AM     By:   Nicolai P. Zwar   (Member) Terrific performance in excellent sound. The RSNO is one of the finest British orchestras (Dave Hurwitz recently picked it as his favorite orchestras in the UK), and the performance here is top notch. Great to finally have a brand new recording of these two fine Bernard Herrmann scores.    Posted:   Apr 19, 2023 - 5:16 AM     By:   Big X   (Member) These look and sound wonderful. Congratulations to Intrada and all involved in this excellent project.    Posted:   Apr 19, 2023 - 4:35 PM     By:   lacoq   (Member) Quite an interesting poster art concept! https://www.reddit.com/r/filmnoir/comments/c2v2yj/on_dangerous_ground_poster/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web2x&context=3    Posted:   Apr 19, 2023 - 4:54 PM     By:   .   (Member) Terrific performance in excellent sound. The RSNO is one of the finest British orchestras (Dave Hurwitz recently picked it as his favorite orchestra in the UK), and the performance here is top notch. Great to finally have a brand new recording of these two fine Bernard Herrmann scores. Very pleased to read this. I have always been a huge fan of Intrada's early re-recordings, like Ivanhoe and Julius Caesar in particular, and also others like Rio Conchos and Jason and the Argonauts. All splendid and among the very best in my collection. But I thought their more recent Rozsa collection (Allan Wilson conducting the RSNO) sounded very disappointing, grainy and flat. And I didn't think much of the Allan Wilson-conducted Spellbound either. So the very positive comments here about the new release sound like a return to top form this time.    Posted:   Apr 19, 2023 - 5:19 PM     By:   Yavar Moradi   (Member) I think switching over to conductor William Stromberg (and team) was where the leap in quality happened. Yavar    Posted:   Apr 19, 2023 - 8:04 PM     By:   jonathan_little   (Member) I think they also moved to a new recording venue since the Allan Wilson recordings, perhaps that is helping as well.    Posted:   Apr 20, 2023 - 1:58 AM     By:   stravinsky   (Member) The RSNO recently moved into a brand new Concert Hall/Recording Facility right next door to the Glasgow Royal Concert Hall. All of their previous recordings were taped in the Henry Wood Hall which was the glorified name for an old Church off Sauchiehall Street. Those recordings suffered from a weirdly dry and boxy disembodied sound. Previous to their tenure there the SNO (as it was known then) used to record in the City Halls in Candleriggs which has excellent acoustics. Does anyone know of this album will appear on digital platforms?    Posted:   Apr 20, 2023 - 3:30 PM     By:   cody1949   (Member) Received my CD around noon time. Will play it this evening.    Posted:   Apr 20, 2023 - 4:42 PM     By:   SchiffyM   (Member) Just listened, and this is terrific! Not that there's any reason to compare, but to me, On Dangerous Ground is the superior listen. The Man Who Knew Too Much is more a collection of short moments and less a coherent musical experience (especially since the two biggest musical moments in the score are not by Herrmann, and so absent here). I love those moments, but I'm pretty sure I'll be revisiting Ground more often. I absolutely love that these Kickstarters are successful!    Posted:   Apr 20, 2023 - 8:24 PM     By:   Amer Zahid   (Member) Is it just me or the soundclips are unplayable as of now? Anyways ordered mine via Screen Archives who will start shipping from 25th.    Posted:   Apr 20, 2023 - 8:51 PM     By:   lairdo   (Member) Listend to the music last night.

In your opinion, where would you put these two pieces in the already great running order in Intrada's "Man Who Knew Too Much" release? I was thinking about this too. I have Doris Day singing Que Sera, Sera (Whatever Will Be, Will Be) from the "Alfred Hitchcock and His Music" compilation. That also has Storm Cantata too. But I also have one from The Film Music of Alfred Benjamin and Leighton Lucas. (I have a few Hitchcock music compilations with the Storm Cantata, but I think they all have the same version.) I think all of these are actually the 1934 version but not sure. Which versions do you have or recommend?    Posted:   Apr 20, 2023 - 9:11 PM     By:   Col. Flagg   (Member) I absolutely love that these Kickstarters are successful! ... and that the most talented, high-qualified people in this field have organized to give us this opportunity. Wouldn't it be great to look back a decade from now and be able to say that, collectively, we managed to conjure out of sheer will a dozen or so recordings like this?    Posted:   Apr 21, 2023 - 5:18 AM     By:   TerraEpon   (Member) Is it just me or the soundclips are unplayable as of now? Try downloading the playlist file. Works for me in Foobar2000 anyway.    Posted:   Apr 21, 2023 - 6:30 AM     By:   Amer Zahid   (Member) Is it just me or the soundclips are unplayable as of now?

"Bernard Herrmann Film Scores" Conducted By Elmer Bernstein/Royal Philharmonic Orchestra. Available on Amazon.    Posted:   Apr 21, 2023 - 2:09 PM     By:   eriknelson   (Member) If you want to be an obsessive completest, the song "We'll Love Again" should also be included. Day sang this number (mostly in the background) along with Que Sera Sera during the Embassy sequence. It was also composed by Livingston and Evans. Apparently Day didn't think Que Sera Sera would go anywhere. After completing the number in two takes, she reportedly said "That's the last time you'll ever hear this song." Little did she know....     General Discussion: Bernard Herrmann ON DANGEROUS GROUND - Intrada '23    << < 23 24 25 26 27  > >>  Go to page:  1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31   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 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31
