A Powell to fall in love

Those who, like me, first of all been interested when you insert a CD, how many minutes of music expect because, should contact the new work by John Powell prefer. Because: 30'27 '' are even somewhat stingy for a film musical score CD. But yes is known in the brevity the soul of wit, and spiced this is almost perfect. Here Powell orchestrated his work actually rather filmmusik untypical: Under the use of drums, various percussions, guitars, a piano, a jazzy organ and a jaunty bass (and without the major Hollywood typical orchestra) he created in minimalist tradition a beswingten, romantic and sometimes quite jazzy score, the obtrusive at any time. Melodious travels Powell also in this work again rather on the hard shoulder of the motorway Composition. This does not mean that one seeks in vain for melodies. On the contrary: Powell charms at the very beginning with a beautiful piano theme, to be joined by the still extremely sensitive, harmonious and sometimes groovy guitar designs in the course of the CD. However, everything is far from the musical majesty of Hans Zimmer. And when you arrive at 26 minutes at the "Finale" of the CD, you can John Powell simply not be angry because of the shortness of the work. After all, who brings such a charming style of composition again and again as seriously and with perfection to bear deserves just (at least my personal) consideration.
