Author	Topic: I need more music like this

db85 Non-Standard Userer	I need more music like the song 'Neodammerung' from the Matrix Revolutions soundtrack. If anyone has suggestions please give me a name of an artist or song name. I have O Fortuna by Carl Orff. And E.S. Posthumus music. But I want music with a powerful choir/orchestra like Neodammerung.

sean Standard Userer	Mission: Impossible 2 ("Bare Island")! But, no, really, it's awesome! Ummmmmmmmm... and First Knight by Jerry Goldsmith ("Arthur's Farewell"). Conan The Barbarian by Basil Poledouris ("Riders of Doom")! Snow Falling on Cedars by James Newton Howard ("Tarawa"); and actually, this piece is used in the trailers and TV spots for Matrix Revolutions. I'm sure there's many others, but those are what come to mind. [Message edited by sean on 11-13-2003]

HadrianD Standard Userer	I'm surprised that no one mentioned Don Davis' score to the first Matrix sequel, Reloaded. Burly Brawl, anyone? Craig Armstrong's Plunkett and Maclane and Romeo & Juliet (vol.2) score each have some genuine moment of Choral beauty. Patrick Doyle's Needful Thing is also a plus.

Marian Schedenig Standard Userer	quote: Originally posted by db85: I have O Fortuna by Carl Orff. Then get the whole Carmina Burana, because O Fortuna is only one short part of that great work. Also, Goldsmith's The Final Conflict has some excellent choral writing. (The first two Omen scores also do, of course, but they're far more different from the Neod�mmerung kind).

justin boggan Standard Userer	"Zombie Fight" by Joseph LoDuca on Hercules: Yhe Legendary Journeys - Volume 3 (Out of print) - It's powerful and catchy. The cue at the end of Joan Of Arc: The Messanger by Eric Serra which is like a rip off, except it is different. I forget the cue name.

MillsSomerset Standard Userer	Unfortunately, they're not as brawny or bold (in the O FORTUNA) mode as the REVOLUTIONS cut, but "A Good Day to Die" from FLATLINERS and "Prince's Day" from BLOWN AWAY are two of my favorite choral/solo voice, classical-ish pieces, somewhat in the vein of what u're talking about. Also: "Victorius Titus" from TITUS, which is probably more in that mold than the above-referenced selections. Hope that helps and I agree -- I listened to "Neodammerung" and the final credits version of it driving home yesterday and it's just fantastic. MS NP: S.W.A.T. - Goldenthal
