I own nothing.
Enjoy!

2:29 made me become a trumpet player
The main theme and the Journey to the Island part from Jurassic park made me become a trumpet player. Now I can play those but I've never tried 2:29 but I could play it so I might try.
I love how occasionally William's just completely disregards the key and plays major chords to accompany the melody. Those parts are always amazing.
JakeTheGearHeart This is a technique called “planing”
A perfect marriage between music & action.
I love how at 2:29 and later at 2:35 and 2:44, then lastly at 3:29, the music is near perfectly aligned with the falcon leaving the shot and the TIE fighters exploding. It leaves you with a POW sensation and it enhances the visuals as well as they are perfectly timed. I encourage anyone to click on my time stamps, you can really feel the music as you see the visuals aligning with the music and it’s pretty amazing.
Wow! I absolutely love the bit at 2:29
Yeah, I like it too and was going to say something about that part. It sounds a bit like Star Trek music, Jerry Goldsmith, and even Michael Giacchino now that I think of it, and it's quite reminiscent of Danny Elfman's music and style as well, at least to me, it's the first thing that came to my mind when hearing it.
Thoroughly inspired by Prokofiev. Love it.
Actually, you can play this as an extended scene where Peter catches the Wolf. Including the bird flying around the wolf's head.
There's something alive down there...
It's the thanks for this video! 👍👍
That was just amazing.
THANK YOU FOR THESE! I am an instructor and I'm teaching film scoring next semester. You've saved me countless hours of exhausting labor. Seriously, I cannot thank you enough! Do you have a PayPal or Patreon or something?
Yes! I have the PDFs of my analyses and other currently unreleased videos at www.patreon.com/DavidMcCaulley.
@@DavidMcCaulley which membership opens access to the asteroid field analysis? I didn't find how ro match the desired score to the appropriate membership.
Great work as always!
I like these videos.
just WOW!!! Brilliant!!
wonderful. It might help to think of the passage from 1.03 to 1.25 as in the key of G hungarian Minor. This also explains the triads.
There must be an error at 2:36. The second A flat of the melody should have been G, I think. Nevertheless, you' ve done an amazing job...
Yeah, I think there were several discrepancies between the score and the final mix. But thanks for the feedback!
Great upload, but what's happening at 0:41? The audio jumps forward and seems to miss a bar (or two) from the actual original recording.
This is due to some last minute editing by George Lucas. The original recording had to be cut in order to fit the movie. (This happens A LOT in films).
Thanks for the fantastic video. Can someone tell me where I can download or buy the full score, for all the instruments? Thank you.
Fantastic mate! Thanks heaps. Any chance you could do Mynock Cave?
Sure, but it will have to be in sketch form since the only version available is the sketch.
Superb, where do you get full score?
IIRC this track one a Grammy in addition to the Grammy for best film score?
Please tell me you used some sort of reference score and did not catch all this musical material by ear. I thought your analysis was excellently done. Thank you for sharing.
Yes, I have the written score for this. Doing this by ear would be next to impossible.
Big Daddy Dave where can you purchase a score?
0:18
3:05 I heard somewhere that that was only a myth
David, by paying per month, would I have access to this pdf? Thanks!
Absolutely! (And whatever other PDFs you desire)
@@DavidMcCaulley, thank you, that's fantastic!
@@DavidMcCaulley, is there a link for this?
@@DavidMcCaulley, I signed up. :)
the tritone is the imperial fanfare from Ep. IV, not just a sci fi harmonic movement. Misanalyzed
What part are you referring to? Love to hear that similarity.
