Michael Kamen - ROBIN HOOD: PRINCE OF THIEVES - Suite
Музыка
I've gotten quite ambitious with this one: I wanted it to resemble a proper concert suite as much as possible. So the order of tracks, the smoothness of transitions and a good balance between large swashbuckling fanfares and delicate romance had to form a musical narrative without distractions and major omissions.
I hope I succeeded, for this is hands down one of my favorite adventure films and adventure scores - and this suite is a labor of love.
However, all the work would not have been possible without INTRADA's wonderful, 4(!) disc quasi-archival edition of Kamen's score. It was my one and only source for this, because the remastered sound is superb, the presentation is as good as it gets and the first thing you should do if you like the score is purchase it from their website, right now. There is tons of music like this on that release: store.intrada.com/s.nl/it.A/id...

The 90’s were better on so many levels. Epic movie scores and practical effects. Seeing a movie in theater and wearing out the VHS till the audio had the whiny bauding sound. Kids today will never know what they missed. Life was for real once upon a time.

Summed up perfectly. There's a magic in the air to this time. I watch this film once a year and have done from 1994
Back when we still believed in heroes and true love. May those times return again...

Takes me back to being a kid. We had this on VHS, watched it so many times. Remeber Brian Adams beibg number one forever as well!! 🤣
This is one of the very few scores that I hum or la-la-la loudly to when I hear it, regardless of my audience. A masterpiece.
Man, I just really appreciate this music
This was the film that gave Terminator 2 a run for its money at the 1991 box office. They couldn't be more different as action-adventures, yet I totally love them both.

For sure one of the best soundtracks of all time!! Great remix!!
thanks for one more time, love it. R.I.P. Michael Kamen
Easily one of my favorite themes. Damn I love those horns!
I love the fact that Kamen incorporated Bryan Adam's "Everything I do" song into the score! That man was a marvel!

It was actually the other way around. Very much like "My heart will go on" from _Titanic_ , the theme was composed by Kamen as an integral part of the score with the melody actually dating back to an unfinished ballet Kamen had written in the 60s. The melody was then rearranged into a pop song first meant to be performed by a female singer and after the likes of Annie Lennox had passed on it, it was later offered to Adams.

This is one of those movies where their heart was in the right place even if their competency missed some points. They wrote a story that was larger than life and failed on some of the finer points. But, the original score was the very best thing about this rendition, possibly the most obvious factor that snatched victory from the jaws of defeat. So iconic that it became the literal theme of morgan creek entertainment. I only regret that more people haven't enjoyed your suite. It's fantastically high quality and well executed.

Back when I was a Knight at Medieval Times Buena Park, CA in the late 90s this was the opening music to the show. This takes me back to every night working there. Great memories!!
You did a great job in honor of one of the greatest, who still to this day is a clear huge influence on many. Besides, Disney chose this score for it's dvd movies montage
One of the best music ever.
Best of the best!
I think this music meets too with the memory and celebration of that great actor and funny, smart and person of great humour that was Alan Rickman. He may have been the villain of the movie but I think of all the fun he must have had in playing the character and that he truly transmitted to the audience, to me by the way
Wonderful work. A joy to listen to. Thank you for this.
Magnificent!!!!!!!!

With this music do you think that they should make a Robin Hood video game with the new technology of today would it be a good GAME give me a thumbs up if you think so. Maybe Capcom can make a remake.
I walked 5km to see this movie
Robin Hood of the Ballads say King was Edward. a Prioress of Kirkly..here we go.. a Prioress is a woman in charge of nuns.. and Kirkly in 1400s England during reign of King Edward means "Church Fields".. later on, that place Kirkly was renamed the Benefice of Lower Wensleydale.. there are 6 churches there that make a face.. Look at St. Marys Church.. just about 350 yards east is Hornby Castle.. Home of the Conyers at one time.. Sir John Conyers Jr was the Robin Hood of the Ballads aka Robin of Redesdale.. just not the first to use name... he was leader of the York Knights.. Sir Robert Hulderne was Robin of Holderness..he was Captain of the York Rebels.. there is only one record of a man using name Friar Tuck in 1417 and 1429.. Sir John Conyers was in mid 20s age when he met Friar Tuck age mid 50s : )

thanks it been a while since i hear this beat... i used to go to gamedude at Southern California so much that anytime a "VG friend/fiend" say he/she is amazing i play dumb and steal their dreams but waited like Michael Kamen to shoot the track all the time... granted it more like Robocop and Dreed status but it is the same thing...

The music was much better than the acting, but it was a good movie.
There is only one Disney, but apparently that one didn't have good enough music to play for themselves.

My only real complaint is that you put the overture five minutes into the suite. By definition, an overture comes at the beginning of a suite. Other than that, I really enjoyed this.

It may or may not comfort you that I made this decision on purpose :). 'Overtures' / 'Preludes' serve different purposes in different formats, i think. What are the 'End Titles' of a film might serve as the 'Overture' on the album or might be placed right in the middle of the presentation, like with Williams' album of JURASSIC PARK. By trial and error, I think I found out KZread-Suites are a 'Cut to the chase'-format, where you need a teaser in the beginning to hook the listener. Sometimes the 'Main Titles' work very well (as with my suites for Goldsmith's DENNIS or TOTAL RECALL), sometimes, however, a catchy fanfare or action piece from the middle of the movie does the job better, as in this suite, I believe. But tell me, what you think. And thanks for the comment, I appreciate it a lot.

@@film_score_suites I get where you're coming from. My issue is that the main title from the movie is literally called "Overture" and functions as one in both the movie and the official soundtrack. As such, I was expecting it to be at the beginning of this suite. That's just a nitpick, though.
