![]() The structure of film scores is also not exactly what is traditionally found among classical music. I recommend the documentary Score: A Film Music Documentary (2017). Add to that the free incorporation of any kind of rock, jazz, electronic or world music to their compositions to muddy the definitions, and it is easy to see that film scores sometimes just can’t seem to find their place, audience or recognition. And since most composers use old and established techniques from the Romantic period of classical music, their film scores are often not seen as adding anything significant or innovative to the classical canon and therefore ignored from that angle. Complete scores are sometimes written in haste or thrown in the waste bin during production. Composers are honored by the Oscars, yes, but that is a very flawed platform. Liking film scores is like fighting for the underdog sometimes. ![]() I will first say something about film scores in general and then about Howard’s early career leading up to his Shyamalan scores.Ībout the nature and place of film scores One thing I cannot abide is for a composer to put his/her heart and soul into the creation of a beautiful piece of music, only for that music to be attached to an absolute shit film and so losing the recognition for all the work and mastery that has gone into it. The music is written for the film, yes, but the music in itself is capable of telling a story. Film music is its own art form and can be regarded and experienced as separate from the film it is attached to. It is for that very reason that I would like to highlight the music written for them, because a film’s music tends to get buried under the general dismissal of a film as a whole. I know Shyamalan’s movies are widely ridiculed and I mostly agree with the criticism directed at them. Especially some scores for movies directed by M. I would like to focus on a couple of film scores by composer James Newton Howard. I am not used to reviewing music so I hope that I get the terminology right. The composer’s other upcoming projects include Paul Greengrass’ News of the World (coming out on December 25, 2020), Disney’s Jungle Cruise (to be released on July 21, 2021), as well as David Yates’ third installment in the Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them series (to be released on July 15, 2022).This is going to be a longer one. Raya and the Last Dragon is currently scheduled to be released in theaters nationwide on Maby Walt Disney Pictures. Howard has previously composed the music for several movies for Disney Animation, including Dinosaur, Atlantis: The Lost Empire and Treasure Planet. Osnat Shurer ( Moana) and Peter Del Vecho ( Frozen, The Princess and the Frog) are producing the Walt Disney Animation Studios production. Adele Lim ( Crazy Rich Asians) and Qui Nguyen wrote the screenplay. The movie tells the story of a fearless warrior as she seeks a water dragon who can transform into a human being to save the realm from evil forces. The film is directed by Don Hall ( Big Hero 6, Winnie the Pooh) & Carlos López Estrada ( Blindspotting) and stars Kelly Marie Tran and Awkwafina. James Newton Howard ( The Hunger Games, King Kong, The Sixth Sense, F antastic Beasts and Where to Find Them, Signs, Maleficent) has recently been scoring the upcoming animated feature Raya and the Last Dragon.
