O.k., but have you all checked out "The Duke of Marlborough Fanfare" by Percy Grainger?

The score contains such gems as "Somewhat Clingingly" and "These are very short holds, should be so short as to be hardly noticeable"
and my personal favorite "More impulsively".

The score is an amazing statement of "I trust you all" from the composer to the performers, especially comparing it to someone like Stravinsky who always manages to give the impression in his articulations other markings that if you don't play the music exactly as he heard it in his head, you were wrong and should put down your instrument and never pick it up again.

Anyway here's a YouTube video with the score, I couldn't find one that was staged as directed, but so it goes.

Found while looking for a solo piano transcription of "Printemps qui commence" from Saint-Saëns' *Samson et Dalila*:

a transcription of another of that work's great arias, "Mon cœur s'ouvre à ta voix" but arranged for #MARIMBA or #XYLOPHONE.

Not sure why but this tickled me so. Image is the catalog entry.

*Extremely sad moment in The Untamed*

Me: Why does the music sound Finnish...
*thinks for a while*
...Hm, can't blame any composer for pulling from Finnish music while writing for things like this.

*tries to concentrate on the story*

Wait! Isn't this one called... Karelian... Waltz or something? Or...

*moment over*

Welp. I guess I'll never know 🤷🏻‍♀️

I watched Dune again, just now, and I realized that at least one of the leitmotifs in the score is VERY similar to one of the leitmotifs in the Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides score.

I guess Hans Zimmer has a favorite chord progression.

The Sagewood

Here is a forest theme I wrote, featuring my friend Tim on oboe. I had in mind: a dark, mysterious forest- it's pretty to look at, but you can't be certain what hides in the dark underbrush. What's behind those giant mushrooms...?
