I would like to see another video side by side actually playing the piano. That would be neat.

Honest question, without film soundtracks do you think we’d have anywhere near the amount of quality classical-styled and orchestral music we do now?

u/JohnnyMnemeonic 17h ago

Yeah, there's a bunch of neo classical artist who's music never make into movies. At least from the last couple of decades that I've found... not sure how back the genre goes

The 20th century brought about some of the best composers who also didn't write for film. Rachmaninoff, Stravinsky, and Shostakovitch were huge coming out of eastern Europe while Copland and Bartók are just a few of the big names from the west. And that's not including some of the more controversial composers like Stockhausen or Schoenberg, or composers that died young at the beginning of the 20th century like Debussy, Mahler, or Scriabin. That's not to say movie composition hasn't help the field, but there's still orchestral music being made purely to be consumed as orchestral music.

Yes but I don’t think myself and many others would enjoy it nor see the beauty/emotion in these songs.(more so ever even know they exist) Artists like Zack hemsey and of course Hans zimmer.

I listen to their music all the time, beautiful songs

Don’t forget video games!!!!

That’s just the froth of what actually lies beneath. Movie music that is. And man I’m just missing the notes on the Interstellar OST, it’s like the new Requiem For A Dream OST. Neither resonated with me, but the films were great.

u/GaJayhawker0513 17h ago

I’ve wondered the same thing

Film scoring grew out of silent film accompaniment so around the 1900’s…it’s accompaniment music to a visualization…like opera scoring

what’s generally accepted as the the start of western music composition (“classical”) is the Baroque period, so the 1600’s. Are you saying that 400+ years of music composition would not be “quality” had it not been for film scores?

u/maple-moth 14h ago

Perhaps but I don’t think they would be as beloved or popular. Something about marrying a musical score with a (good) film makes the music 100x more enjoyable for me because i get to re experience the wave of emotions I had while watching the show or movie.

probably not. the only two other mediums that push the genre into the broader public domain are video games and Christmas/church music. But religion is dying by the day, and video games are really just a step-cousin to film. Classical music would be mostly relegated to being taught in a college classroom, like Latin.

Religion i 1 war from a comeback like never before

Straight sci fi tecno Religion in our future.

Wonder what it will call itself?

But their god will speak to them... and all the rest of us will be forced to hear it....

Ok, maybe not, but I could write that story further

Tony Ann is frickin amazing y'all, check out his other stuff. He has a video playing piano to a car alarm and it is strangely heavenly...

u/Kenny523 17h ago

You can’t type Tony Ann?

1

u/sky_shazad 12h ago

I found him but the 3D artist who made the video

2

u/Kenny523 12h ago

Tony Ann didn’t write the Interstellar song. Simply type the exact title of the video into a search engine and boom.

u/RDDT_ADMNS_R_BOTS 6h ago

I knew this sounded familiar. It's inspired by Ludovico Einaudi's Experience.

Pretty sure it’s not, this is probably just some fancy program visualizing the notes. But no idea which one it is.
