No real surprise at first, as here, the composer and essentially repeats the reasons some themes that he began to build on the previous films. However, this new opus allows it to exist within the dune stronger and more dense structure, providing them with emotional and evocative power much more pithy.
So it seems that this partition so be more readable and also favoring a linear musical phrasing based on more than lorchestral on electro rhythms and sound design! This nempêche not mean JNH dy to use certain pieces of tensions and of Shares, such "Jamming the Capitol" or "Inside the tribute center", but these effects are sufficiently adjusted so that it does not vampirizes the score.
More orchestral and therefore linear and it shows especially in pieces of Shares or composer found the verve and orchestral strength quon appreciate both at home for years. "The Arsenal" and "Incoming bombers" are a perfect example of this newfound verve. This is without question with "Air Raid Drill" that heavy artillery JNH out with great fanfare brass and winds accompanied by the chorus. This is undoubtedly one of the highlight of the partition reminiscent at times heard some climax in Shyamalan. We sometimes think of "The Great Eatlon" in "The Lady in the Water."
It is also quite nice to have some color to James Newton Howard, in these few touches of melancholy pianos, flutes these cottony or combinations of these strings!
One of the highlights of the album has been replicated in the Hit "The Hanging Tree". The melody lon herein has not been composed by JNH but by members of the group The Lumineers! The composer sest however busy orchestrations! This is therefore a sung melody or slightly hoarse, quiet voice of Jennifer Lawrence gives way to strings and brass full of strength and nobility, all joined by a childs choir, that of the Trinity Boys Choir.
The piece is then celestial and triumphant! A great time!
No doubt, it Mockingjay Part 1 enhances a little ViaMichelin musical oeuvre by the saga Hunger Games! More consistent, more solid, more structured and linear, the partition of a musical setting seems denser most evocative drama! That said, it may be noted that the music still sounds a bit generic to convince completely. There still is no real strong thematic identity! Yet there are themes and they are present, but their strength longer reside in their application to magnify a picture, to evoke that create a memorable melody, easy! For Hunger Games, it's not Harry Potter or even The Lord Of The Rings or the melodic power lies primarily in the ability to identify the universe immediately presents itself to us! The climate and general ambience of the universe who build Hunger Games require a more subtle musical treatment, or the real themes appear filigree! And it is probably also here, the true strength of James Newton Howard, namely seffacer before his subject while magnifying it by subtle musical combinations! It is a whole work that we built as and when these 4 sheets! It feeds delle same and inspirations of the author, always able to find the key, or formula, in its various influences!
Quoiquil be, the work of the composer remains in ALL OPERATING satisfactory in terms of deficiencies that could present the first musical opus! This is a solid work sufficiently involved and that the interest towards this partition is significant! However, despite the many efforts of James Newton Howard, the musical table is still perfectible!
