Celice is a single from the latest album "Analogue" by A-Ha (composed by Magne Furuholmen/ Martin Terefe -- lyrics by Magne Furuholmen). They just used this song on the film -- it was not composed specially for it.
Celice by a-ha should have teamed up with the film,A-ha are a very misunderstood band but they had a great track for the Da Vinci code which has sadly lost its way,I'l bet there was money invloved or Lack of?Hans is good though but A-ha Would have been fantastic!
On our News from February, the 27th, we put an extract from a Jim Dooley's Interview ; we could read : "Hans has all ready... pardon the pun... cracked the code, so to speak. Before I came in to lift a finger, he'd written a 700-bar suite for this score, it's pretty breathtaking, my participation in this is not so much the upfront writer, but more the extension due to the slightly accelerated schedule of production, we've been scoring four weeks from yesterday, so it's pretty tight."
Myotis , Hans is the composer of the soundtrack so he's of course an arranger of the score :) Dooley's an additionnal composer ( additionnal music) for this score right.
Richard Harvey also composed the last song "Kyrie For The Magdaleine" ( strange this track isnt listed on this page )
From here you can find quite a lot of information on the soundtrack: http://www.iclassics.com/productDetail?contentId=64530
And here I have gathered the sound which I hope is from the Soundtrack by Hanz Zimmer which is played as background music for the site of the film. The Style is Zimmer's Style and if the vocals in the soundtrack are going to be this smart, therefore we're in for a big one from Zimmer. Here are the highlights as one mp3:
Those who are interesteed in this score should visit the da vinci code site: http://www.sonypictures.com/movies/thedavincicode/
There are some really good excerpts from the score in the background and if you give some time and then click on the da vinci gallery you have some more music. Some very good vocal parts of the score could easily be heard in the trailer.
To finish up the tracklist given in the site contains another track: 14. Kyrie For The Magdalene
I still have my doubts about some names altough they are in Latin, I could still follow them and they don't seem to follow the book. I hope that the film is truthfull to the book... This might be one of the best scores Zimmer might have produced considering the parts I have listened from the site
Any idea as to when he will release some samples? Because if I remember right, Harry Gregson-Williams did that with his Narnia score before the soundtrack even came out.
Because August 5 is a bit far off.... usually soundtracks are released before the movie. (In my experiance, that is).
I do hope that they won't include any dialogues into this one like they did for Hannibal. No matter how well it's performed, the dialogues never really work for me and I find them irritating.
