The term isn't used much anymore, but there was a time where cutting-edge, "avant-garde" music was much debated. The term loosely means "ahead of it's time" But, it can mean anything you consider innovative or experimental, or unique. Reynolds: A SCANNER DARKLY Fiedel: THE TERMINATOR Colombier: COLOSSUS Goldmith: FREUD, ALIEN Corigliano : ALTERED STATES Glass : KOYAANISQATSI Vangelis: BLADE RUNNER Herrmann; DAY THE EARTH STOOD STILL Price : GRAVITY Zimmer: THE DARK KNIGHT / RISES Hammer; MIAMI VICE (tv) Copeland: THE EQUALIZER (tv) Djawadi: WESTWORLD (TV) Morricone: FOR A FEW DOLLARS MORE Schifrin : DIRTY HARRY Horner: WOLFEN Goldenthal; TITUS Fielding: ESCAPE FROM ALCATRAZ Barton: HIGH PLAINS DRIFTER Reznor: THE SOCIAL NETWORK Melle: THE SENTINEL just a sample!

John Barry: The Dutchman (yes, it's literally one theme, but it's all percussive; would Edgard Varese have liked it?)

John Barry: The Dutchman (yes, it's literally one theme, but it's all percussive; would Edgard Varese have liked it?) I tried to think of a Barry score but couldn't. Thanks

Another one for the list: THE DEVILS (1971) - Peter Maxwell Davies, Stomu Yamash'ta, David Munrow. I so long for the original soundtrack recording for this. (I'm aware of re-recordings of Maxwell Davies' music, but I'm talking about the actual entire score as recorded in 1971.)

Perhaps a debatable choice, but Bernard's "Little Girl Lost" is a bulletproof masterpiece, and avante garde in its own way. His combination of instruments worked so well...some of it sounds almost unmistakably aleatoric. I also love Mr. Goldsmith when he goes experimental.

Williams' IMAGES is high up there on my list. But I have loads others. Will mention a few when I get more time. I'm sure you will. Please limit your choices to films American filmgoers have familiarity.

As it happens, just the other day, I listened to Williams "Images" for the first time in forever. It's great! It was just about time! ...and it is great.
