Hollywood Suite

The Hollywood Suite was composed few years ago as an homage to the american film music.This suite is divided in four movements, each one dedicated to a certain kind of music/scenes of Hollywood movies.In the first movement, the piano introduces the main theme, a theme that will be repeated with some rhythmic and melodic variations along the suite. The orchestra also introduces several leitmotifs that will also be heard in the other movements.In the second movement, an alto flute plays the Romantic Theme, with the string section as background. Later, strings, horns and woodwinds (flutes and oboes) join the theme leading it to a climax.The third movement presents a powerful and energetic theme. In the last bars, the main theme is played by the orchestra, this time in a minor key.In the last movement, The Dramatic Theme / Finale, a new theme is introduced by the piano and then repeated by the orchestra. Then, a sucession of leitmotifs that appeared in the other movements are brought once again into action!In the final coda, horns, trombones and tuba play once more the main theme in an intense dialogue with the other instruments.

hey! i loved the first movement , actually all of the are very well polished , and very well done , i wish you could post the score , to check out what you were doing .

btw i loved how you keep the it continuous ( the listener doesnt feel like each one is for a different movie) they are relate together someway .

the action theme is pretty good , also you could have done better . i feel it lacks something in the beginning . but at around :40 a short melody comes in thats very nice

. i think you should have thrown some more string tremolo to get that action feeling , or some doublebass slaps . i dont know its ur piece hehe . but actually its very good hehe . i just liked the first movement more .

great job, it sure works for a film

Dominus,

for sequencing I used Cubase SX3, the samples are form EWQLSO.

Regarding the score, I only have the original manuscripts digitalized in PDF format, never prepared the score...that is one of the reasons why a performance would be difficult to achieve.

I wrote this work to apply for the Film Scoring course at Berklee (and got admitted but unfortunately I was not able to go), so, although being a piece that I always regarded with affection (I was still studying at the Conservatory when I wrote it) , I always looked at it as "study work".

One day, with time, I will prepare and revise (it definitely needs a few revisions and re-orchestrations) the score.

Well, meanwhile, what I can do is to post the original manuscripts.

Regards,

Bruno
