Great film made even more spectacular by the soundtrack. I watched the film around a year ago and I remember thinking the soundtrack was awesome. Recently I was walking through a room where the film was being shown and I stopped still in my tracks to listen to the music, Chevaliers de Sangreal what an amazing few moments! I bought the soundtrack shortly after and it's never been off. This piece and "Now we are free" from Gladiator are two of the most amazing scores I've ever heard.
Today I purchased the soundtrack from the motion picture 'The DaVinci Code' and although all the music is beautiful and has captured me, the number 13 piece has been played over and over in my home. Will you be doing the soundtrack for, but not sure, 'Angels and Demons?'
In the tradition of wondering where tracks are that aren't on the soundtrack (see "Twister"), I'm asking yet another question. I've listened to bits and pieces of the soundtrack - yes, I own it, and have for a little over a year now, but I've spent the majority of the time listening to track 13, great work Hans!!
When the promotional website first emerged, it contained EXTREMELY haunting music that I thought for sure would make it into the final cut of the movie -- sweeping orchestras, haunting choral arrangements. Imagine my surprise when I bought the CD and listened to the tracks -- there was a completely different set of themes.
The promotional arrangement of website themes and trailer music provides a hint as to what I was hoping for on this CD:
##########
From 1:09 to ~1:52 on the promotional arrangement the main theme of the website can be heard - when visiting the main page, looking at character profiles, etc. From 2:24 to 2:55 there's the Da Vinci Gallery music, which is the song I'm looking for. These tracks can be heard still by going to the Da Vinci Code movie website and clicking around. It seems hard to believe that these tracks were composed specifically for a website - they must be available somewhere in a full, high resolution form, either CD or mp3 or on a production music website. If these tracks are on the soundtrack CD itself, could someone let me know what tracks and times they are (like I said, I haven't listened to the whole of the soundtrack yet, even though I've listened to a great deal of it.) If the tracks aren't on the soundtrack, does anyone know where they might be located?
wow zimmer! again i say it. you are amazing. and just when people think that you've reached your peak, you surpass them. the only good part of the movie was your music. very nice job
WOW Unbelievablely moving piece, Chevaliers De Sangreal gave me goose bumps, it was absolutely PERFECT for the movie. I am not a man of very much emotion but that piece brought me to the brink. Standing O in my book.
sorry my englisch is terrible, because i come from germany.
its nice to read all this comments here, but i'am too a great fan of such music. yes ,the song of "" Chevaliers de Sangreal" is wonderfull. its raising , its like an phoenix or an majestic eagle who sprawled out his wings and raising in the air and fly , higher and higher, ,,and higher ,and he takes along my emotions. ...higher an higher, ..............and wehn the song is over i feel myself was the eagle. ...and i' am crying ,.....because i'cant fly ........I' am a fan of great emotions. .......why can't german movies have this raising feelings. My greatest dream is to be in a movie like this, to play in such scenes like the final scene of ''da vinci code''..............and hear in my ears this song!!!!!!!
Hi Antas!I dont understand what do you want to tell me. You can propose what you want, but I have not written nothing offensive. Maybe You interpreted badly my coment. This post (as everithing that i have written) I wrote with affection because I love the cinema, I love the soundtracks and I love Zimmer´s music. In this page I cant explain my passion approprieate because I dont know english as you. But in Spain, in a very important website, I have written about Zimmer and about his majestic music. Regards!! ps: Sorry for my english.
Una pena que la mejor banda sonora del 2006, no sea ganadora del oscar. Sin duda se lo merece. Pero no te preocupes Hans; para nosotros tu eres el ganador. GRAN SCORE!! EXCELENTE!!! *abrazos*
Just a word : for christmas I have had 2 new CD King Arthur and Pirates of the Caribbean. WONDERFUL! The original score of King Arhur is very moving especially "Tell me now" . It is just a breath of life! Thanks you and congratulations mr Zimmer, I discover you everyday!
I am a french fan of MediaVentures and more particularly of Hans since many years. This album is once again splendid and magic and marrie with wonder with the extraordinary work of Dan Brown.
Chevaliers of SangReal is one of the most beauty masterpiece of the album and the introduction recalls me Woad To Ruin of movie King Arthur.
I think this score "Chevaliers de Sangreal" is the most beautiful music I have ever heard in my entire life. It is soulful and godful. It brings you to tears. It is mysterious yet enlightening, sad but hopeful, peaceful yet energizing, soft yet strong. It takes your emotions on a journey you never knew they could take. I was drawn to the score while watching the movie and couldn't wait to hear more and to know more about the music and the composer. This song is so fitting for the film, yet magnanimous and lasting in its own right. I am so proud to know of a composer such as Hans Zimmer living and writing beautiful music in my time.
Thank you.
You inspire me to follow my destiny and to contribute what I can in my own little way to life on earth. Thank you so much for re-awakening my creativity and making me believe again in the gift of art in music, in words, in pictures, in imagination.
With your music you have made the world a better place.
