Author	Topic: Where did this cue come from?

HadrianD Standard Userer	http://www.comunicati.us/images/unknown_choral.mp3 It's not from Horner's Glory.

Ron Pulliam Standard Userer	It "sounds" like it's from Orff's "Carmina Burana."

franz_conrad Standard Userer	Don't recognise it either. There's one point which does sound similar to Orff, but something tells me its a lot more recent than that. The name Trevor Jones came to mind while listening to it... though I can't imagine what Trevor Jones score it could be.

Camillu Standard Userer	Could it be Conan the Destroyer? I haven;t heard that but I think parts of this cue sound like Conan the Barbarian...

scoreguy16 Standard Userer	I think it's a classical piece. I've never heard it before though, but it does sound a lot like Orff's Carmina Burana. Clayton

Lancelot Standard Userer	I'm positive I heard it in a trailer once--I know it's not Orff. I recognized the variation at the end...but I can't place it, exactly...

Marian Schedenig Standard Userer	It doesn't sound much like Orff. It sounds very much like it's based on Orff.

lancer Standard Userer	Well, I was going to say first knight by Goldsmith, because I hadnt heard that one for a while, but popped it in the cd player, and its not. Trying to remember who did the trailer music for the teaser of fellowship of the rings, maybe its part of that?

Squiddybop Standard Userer	I'm trying to remember, but did those old Marine ads where the guy fights a dragon possibly use this, or were they actually scored with Carmina Burana?

John C Winfrey Standard Userer	You're right. Not from Glory and its not Orff. Its not Jones either. Sounds similar to lots of things though. J. Not from First Knight either.

plindboe Standard Userer	There are a billion Carmina burana copies out there, made for movies, commercials, games etc. If you like the style, there's alot of music that you will fall for, you don't have to find this particular piece. The melody in this piece isn't even that good. My favorite "Carmina burana" copy is "Waxing Elisabeth" from "Young Sherlock Holmes". Seek out this piece instead of the low quality piece you're currently trying to find, that's my advice. Peter

rkeaveney Standard Userer	That doesn't make any sense at all. He's searching for the name of that piece, not one like it. Ryan

plindboe Standard Userer	quote: Originally posted by rkeaveney: That doesn't make any sense at all. He's searching for the name of that piece, not one like it. Ryan It makes sense because they all sound the same. Might as well do with the original and a couple of the best rip-offs. Peter

rkeaveney Standard Userer	I'm sorry, but "Waxing Elizabeth" from YSH doesn't sound at all like the clip above. Ryan

plindboe Standard Userer	Broughton's melody and orchestration is much superior, but other than that it's basically the same stuff. But I don't want to hijack this thread, especially not for such a futile disagreement. Peter

HadrianD Standard Userer	I'm starting to guess it's probably a copy Glory itself. Imagine that eh? A copy of a copy.

Tristan Standard Userer	A bit late to the party, but I believe I worked with this very cue a couple of years ago for a project I was editing. It came from The Extreme Music library. I'm afraid I can't remember which cue on what disc it was...sorry. They have a website where you can sample the cues on their discs. You might find it that way. Hope this helps. The site is: extrememusic.com

rkeaveney Standard Userer	I listened to a whole bucket full of tracks over at Extreme Music and didn't hear the cue above. Ryan

Tristan Standard Userer	I went through a bunch of those tracks on their site, too. No luck. I'm no longer at the post-house where I cut the short film in which I used this track. It was a couple of years ago. I'll see if I can get any of my contacts there to let me know what that track was.

Howard L Standard Userer	Not to sound impertinent but was it perhaps from a commercial? There's something vaguely familiar. I honestly think it might have been, which would certainly lend credence to the knockoff possibility.
