It is a very heavy and present score. Perhaps its relentlessness bothered you while watching the films.I liked them actually. I think it's because I haven't seen the movies in ages, so even though I still remember the scenes where these pieces played, I can dissociate the score from the movie a bit easier.
No, I don't really have preference for particular genres. I like emotive and/or melodic scores, regardless of what sort of film they come from. I think epic stories are easier to compose to, and therefore are more easily emotionally affective. It's harder to deeply move an audience with a score to something more intimate and private in scale - that said, when it's done well, it's incredible.Do you typically enjoy fantasy scores?
Why, do you like certain genres, yourself?
I know. I'm kind pissed off that my editions are missing some of my favourite pieces.Hopefully I don't end up liking the LOTR scores TOO much. I'm a sucker for expanded editions, and those things are expensive! Gah. Thanks a lot!
