    Cool to hear him praise Williams' CE3K score as "one of the great pieces of 20th century music." I'm inclined to agree. A pity that Williams lost out on the Oscar... to himself, for his 'Star Wars' score of the same year (1977). Just unreal.

    John Williams, Thomas Newman & Hans Zimmer are my top 3 but I do appreciate any array of composers. I love films & music from films.
    What’s happening now though is great composers are rising from within the gaming industry.
    If you’re not a player of video games, here are some recommendations from me, a person who does:
    Koji Kondo - he has made the music for Mario but his music from The Legend of Zelda is my favourite.
    Check out the soundtracks for Battlefield 1 & Battlefield V. I promise you that they are beautiful. It’s the same composer for both instalments too: Johan Söderqvist …
    ‘Dawn Of A New Time’ is one my favourites.
    Check Austin Wintory’s music. He did the soundtrack for the profoundly beautiful video game, ‘Journey.’

  • @detreanna
    @detreanna ปีที่แล้ว +3

    😁
    Why do you consider Ennio Morricone one of the greatest music composers ever?
    He's unique, he could be atonal one minute then sound like Mozart at his most melodic on the other, plus he was a master at thinking out the box. A score for just a string quartet? Why not! A Jazz Septet? Done that! He could get the most powerful orchestrated sound from just 25 players, yet give him 90+ players to play with and he could knock it out the park. If that's not mastery of your art, then I'd love to know what is…

      No not really. Hans Zimmer is a lot more creative than John Williams, and music essentially involves a lot of creativty and one's own intuition to create their art. John Williams is more complex than Zimmer, yet both create the same quality of music.
