3:26 - 4:12 easily my favorite moment of this track. Such a delicate and brilliantly written string prelude and brass buildup. I never noticed the little things of this moment until I heard it by itself, but dang John Williams goes all out when it comes to... basically everything he's ever worked on. Thanks for the upload!

this is the real John Williams, interesting orchestration, chords harmonies pushing the envelope..

It is so beyond me how someone writes this on a piece of paper... Amazing through and through... And nice reduction as well :D !

Wow, I was looking for this for so long! Awesome work, man!!! If I may make a suggestion, if the next piece could be the Library Scene and the subsequent Mirror of Erised scene, that would be awesome! Once again, great work!

Thanks Mate, I'll definitely look into that!

My favourite part of the movie. The score is so good that I enjoy listening on its own and get chills every time I do so 🤩 Marvellous!

So great Thank you Could you precise the modulations and the modes?

Hey Yaron, Thanks for your comment! These sort of cues are supposed to portray the action on screen musically and underline the emotions felt by the characters in order for us - the viewer or listener - to relate to them and be more included in the scene. Thus they can be very atonal and chromatic at times (see for instance the first cue "the chess board"). I might be mistaken as to what you want me to explain or analyse here, but as far as I can see there are no specific modes used throughout the piece or well maybe there are simply to many to pin them down to a few sorry :( Thanks for your question anyways and in case anyone else has another answer to Yaron's question I'd be delighted to read them and get involved in the discussion again!

Magnificent work! Just make sure to have someone else proofread your reductions. Such complex scores are very tricky, and I realized you missed some flats and sharps. Good job, keep them coming!

Thank you so much! I'd be curious to which passages you're referring to so I could maybe track the mistake down (maybe due to reading transposing instruments off the score etc). Otherwise it might also just be an engraving mistake or something...I noticed only after publishing the video that the pitches on the percussion stave were completely messed up by the export for example. But yeah I'll look into that thanks! :)

@@PlayFtopayrespect I noticed some slurs that shouldn't be there for example tpt m37. And I'm really curious, hns m 128, is there really not those notes up an octave? I certainly hear horns up the octave there. Also tpt def not slurred there either

Hey Kupo! Thank you very much for your comment! The score reduction reflects exactly what is on the original orchestral score that I had at hand… Whether this was revised or played differently during the recording session, I unfortunately cannot tell you. In this sense, these score reductions are a 1 to 1 copy of their expanded counterparts and that is all I do for these videos. I love speculating around with how much might be changed during the recording sessions however; the process is very interesting! I hope you still enjoyed this video :)

@@PlayFtopayrespect Oh got it, I was wondering where you get these scores from? That is an interesting theory and I'm sure you right that things have been changed during the recording session from the score. Appreciate the video, it's very nice seeing the scores to my favorite pieces! Thanks!

Could anyone tell me what is the text font that was used? 🙏🙏🙏
