Hey dweebs, so I know the format of this one is a little different, but I thought that since the music stops and starts so much in this scene, it would be better to present it this way. So whenever music is playing, you get the visual of the score, and whenever the music stops, the score disappears. Hope it’s not too hard to follow, and if so, no worries - I won’t be sticking with this format for other videos.
How the heck do you hear all these things? I try teaching myself and learning from videos like yours, but I still have trouble knowing how many instruments I'm hearing at once. Yours are consistently incredible!
I don’t want to speak for every cue, but I’d be willing to bet that he has a score for all these cues. That’s not to take away from the amazing quality of this content though! Glad you’re making some videos! Hope all is well, Brad!
@@FilmScoreandMore he doesn't do by ear he gets the score and transcribes it onto a staff font and condenses it by listing the instruments instead of nothing each one. If that weren't the case I'd be very proud of my score transcriptions that aren't by ear.
It seems to me that John Williams uses chords in movies not base specifically on a certain mode but rather in a certain feeling. He has mastered what each chord feeling has on the audience base on what is going on on the picture. Of course the colors of the orchestration and progression of the chords is part of the deal. Correct me if I m wrong
Let's take a moment to realize that Home Alone, a movie with music by John Williams, references the first Indiana Jones film with the door handle gag, and that's also a film scored by John Williams.
Love this, I enjoyed this format, works well for this kind of scene. Would love a quick explanation of some of the terminology like CLIX OUT and "4 warning". I know they must be related to the recording process/keeping things in sync with the film.
Connor Griffin Music Yes, they are all for syncing the music to the picture and keeping everyone together between takes. In the film world, almost all music is recorded using a click track (think of it like a metronome but synced to the exact timing of the film down to the frame) that both the conductor and musicians are listening to, and clix out means the click track stops playing and the conductor goes to what is called free time (similar to a conductor in a concert where you have some freedom with the tempo instead of being locked to an exact tempo with the click track) using various visual cues added to the film for the session and a clock to stay roughly in tempo and somewhat in sync with the film. 4 (or other numbers) warning also relates to the click track and stands for the number of ‘warning’ clicks you hear before the music actually begins, usually used at the beginning of the music or during tempo changes within it so the musicians know what the tempo is supposed to be.
I hadn’t realized until seeing this that those horn triads in the Burglar’s Theme clearly evoke (purposely or not) the Wolf’s Theme from Prokofiev’s Peter and the Wolf.
Wow! The music in this reminds of the Mr. DNA music in Jurassic Park (or the other way around?), as well as traces of Smee's Theme from Hook! (Of course, he has a style haha). Also great to see his scoring technique for this, where it's *like* cartoon scoring, except it clearly coming in and out, and every fall is not matched with the orchestra. Great work!
You know what I've always wanted to see in sheet music, the last measure crescendo of "Attack on the House", where it's like the ramping and swirling of the orchestra? I just wish I knew what that cacophony of sound looked like written down.
I just noticed something interesting. At the 2:36 mark, that little 4 note oboe intro reminds me SOOOO much of the beginning of the theme for, "Smee's Plan," (7 seconds in). Does anyone else notice this?

Gotta say, I love the witty personality these videos have.
Your videos too, Dave!
Hey! Surprised I'd find you here!
CLAIM LIFTED! VICTORY IS MINE!
The beginning... especially the grace note, was pure gold! XD

I figured he'd probably have sheet music for some, but he's still so insightful. And I'm pretty sure he doesn't have sheet music for that beginning!

Couldn’t agree more!

I see what you did there!
Great job! I wish they mixed music this loud to begin with tbh I really enjoyed just watching it not to even mention the amazing transcription
