variousmusik Posted June 30, 2009 Share Posted June 30, 2009 Clint Mansell - Lux Aeterna: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CjWHlKAsBNA That song was part of the movie called "Requiem for a Dream". Since it comes from a movie, is it a film score (orchestral) genre or simply classical genre? What do you think? Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Max Castillo Posted June 30, 2009 Share Posted June 30, 2009 Both I guess but "film music" would be more correct. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old Composer Posted June 30, 2009 Share Posted June 30, 2009 It's kind of a crossbreed between traditional art music and film music. (I think that's what you mean). It's not 'classical' because 'classical' denotates a style of writing within a certain time period. As far as the piece goes I can see it either way. It's certainly got minimal movement and development (so thats more the 'film' style) but I think the inclusion of the Kronos Quartet and the way the piece is handled gives it a more 'art music' vibe. I would classify it more as film I suppose. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
