Wow, this is extensive. And for £20 not too expensive either. I already own the four discs containing Silva's Film Music Of Zimmer Vol 1 and 2, but of course this is an interesting 6CD-set.

Shame they put so much emphasis on the Batman scores. Considering the scores don't vary that much, there's no need to include five or six cues per film

Several of those tracks are on disc 2 of "Film Music Of Hans Zimmer" fom Silva.

I don't know about all of them but some are definitely on the original album releases, eg Hero, Mombasa, Dream Within A Dream.

Without a single track from Hannibal there is nothing definitive about this release.

Definitive? Has he retired already?

The two you are asking about were on "Film Music 2013".

I don't know about all of them but some are definitely on the original album releases, eg Hero, Mombasa, Dream Within A Dream.

That doesn't count. I was referring to Silva re-recordings.

Toys is an underrated score. Came to think of it, I don't even have the CD.

Such a great Zimmer/Horn score First Breath (and an underrated film).
An expanded edition (because of the numerous alternates, and unreleased cues) would be great.

Got this package today, what a lovely set this is. I mean, the packaging itself is lovely, the art design very well executed, 6 slim line CD cases in a box, Silva's preferred packaging for these multi disc sets these days.

The music, well, I pretty much had most of it from earlier Silva sets, but it IS nice to have it all collected in one box. The new tracks on disc 1 are good, both the London Music Works and City Of Prague tracks. If you never picked up Silva's earlier Pirates Of The Carribbean CD, I believe this set includes all of the tracks there, and the Prague orchestra really hit a homerun on these. I prefer their take on The Kraken from Dead Man's Chest to the original film version actually, it seems to have more of a boogie woogie feel to the piano and drums, love how they cut this one ! Also, you get all of their Dark Knight tracks and DaVinci / Angels and Demons cuts as well, the FANTASTIC 180 BPM is not to be missed. And as usual with Silva's compilations, the sound is perfect, crisp and clear.

Thanks to Silva, James Fitzpatrick for his stellar work as always, and anyone and everyone involved here. The set only cost about $25 from an Amazon retailer, so it was a freaking bargain.

People complain about Silva's recycling tracks but keep in mind these sets appeal to a much wider audience than the core collector's community.

I just reap the rewards razz


But really, a standout set.

I'm listening to this set now. I haven't been following Silva's Zimmer recordings, so these are basically all new to me except for the Batman tracks. I think the music is well performed and recorded. Recommended for the relative discount price (I paid maybe $20).

I also like that the album plays in reverse chronological order - that means the music keeps getting better and better as you go along wink

I obviously have many of these tracks on their original soundtracks, and I have bits and pieces of the Silva re-rerecordings too. But how would you evaluate the performances, overall? Do they add something that the originals don't?

I think the performances are solid, although I haven't finished disc 6 yet today. Some of the more interesting changes are instrumentation based (i.e. the later Pirates scores sound a lot more "orchestral" than the OSTs do, some other tracks sound a bit more sampled - IMO not a bad thing, just a different sound).

It's probably the least "essential" of the larger Silva compilations, TBH, because so much of it is programmed - so a lot of it ends up sounding pretty similar to the OST recordings. But it's definitely a worthwhile listen, IMO.

I'm not a big fan of the performances of the more electronic based stuff, disc 6 for instance, which sound a bit clumsy. Mostly because I'm so used to the superior original versions.

The more orchestral stuff works better, mostly because I don't have the originals to compare with.
