OHMSS76 Romulan	Goody....I can finally get Death & The Maiden, without having to shell out for the full album and get another recording of the Schubert again.... It will be interesting to hear Dracula played on Kilar's home turf, as oppposed to the LA recording. Sean

But isn't the LA recording the "original" film recording? So... just cause it's recorded in his home country doesn't mean it will be a better recording. It might just seem like, well, a re-recording.

OHMSS76 Romulan	Exactly, the LA recording - film recording under Anton Coppola will sound(I guess)somewhat different than the Polish/Wit recording....guess ya have to be into the whole 'compare one recording to another' game, eh Dinko?

Dinko Romulan	Ya got it Seanster. It's not about which is better or original, Dan!, it's about how the Polish homies will play it. Ruskie classical music played by Ruskies is often different, from when it is played by Germans, which is different from when it is played by Brits, which is different from when it is played by Americans. Given how film music is ever more present in the classical repertoire, it's only natural to extend to film music the 'different interpretations approach' so often raised in classical music.

OHMSS76 Romulan	Ding ding ding! I wonder if we'll see the day when there are, say 18 recordings of The Magnificent Seven by Bernstein, or (this is a stretch) 12 different Christus Apollos by Goldsmith. Not that we need all that, but I still get a kick out of comparing.... And our Pole pals do interpret things quite differently, at least from what I've heard, mostly from Naxos discs. Wanna have some real fun, check out the difference between the London Symphony and various Polish orchestras performing Penderecki Pretty twisted idea of fun Sean

dgoldwas Romulan	LOL - or check out the performance of PREDATOR that the City of Prague did. <shudder> Different, certainly. Good? Not at all. Dan

PeterK FishChip	Leave the Czechs out of this. There is no interest when a new Prague recording is announced. But a recording by the Poles of a Polish movie/music composer? Ya, bring it on!

BMikeJ Romulan	Hear, hear, Timmer... Now how does one say "me want" in Kilar's native tongue?
posted 12-18-2002 08:58 PM PT (US)

Dinko Romulan	"Me want" = 'Ja potrzebuje' according to http://www.poltran.com/pl.php4

Timmer Romulan	quote: Originally posted by Dinko: "Me want" = 'Ja potrzebuje' according to http://www.poltran.com/pl.php4 Cool Dinko, now how do you say it?
posted 12-19-2002 10:20 AM PT (US)

Dinko Romulan	I am not Polish, but my non-Polish guess would be that it is probably something like this: 'Ja' = Ya 'potrzebuje' = pot(r)jebuye in which pot(r)jebuye the "r" is only slightly hinted at during the trasition from 't' to 'j', and this 'j' would be pronounced like a mix between 'z' and 'j'. Just a guess. As even Poles would have a hard time learning how to pronounce their own language.

JJH Romulan	I'm sure many know this, but I just want to point out for those that don't -- there are numerous Kilar film music compilations out there, and they are stunning. You have to look for them, but they are out there. I think Screen Archives has one right now called "The Best," or something to that effect.

Ken S Romulan	Why bother to do a re-recording of Kilar's dull DRACULA and NOT include THE ONLY GOOD MUSIC FROM THE MOVIE, the furious climax "pursuit" ?!!?!! These re-recording producers should be impaled. KEN

Dinko Romulan	quote: Originally posted by Ken S: These re-recording producers should be impaled. Yeah. That's what I say most of the time Naxos puts out a CD. (sorry! Naxos bashing just comes so naturally.)

Dinko Romulan	Guess so. But I think they would called 'fish' while in the prossess of getting hormone-full enough to be served to unsuspecting customers in smelly fish joints. As far as I know, fish chips are the finished product. ?
