Good video for fans – what I like about this guy is his attention to a variety of musical details and how thorough he is while still being easy to follow.

Cool video analyzing the different ways in which music evokes the feeling of flight in dance scenes from several recent films. Her observations about meter in the first part of the video are kind of basic, but the most interesting part is when she discusses timbre using the tool of the “sound envelope” to define precisely the shape of sounds that we might characterize as “sparkling,” “lyrical,” and “buoyant.”

As in the last video I posted, I think the second half of this video is more interesting than the first half. After observing how Zimmer’s scores play with time in more basic ways, he argues that Zimmer’s themes for Batman and Superman can be heard as “compressed” versions of the melodies in Elfman and Williams’ earlier themes.

For those who might be craving more Leonard Bernstein post-TAR, or who want to get primed for Maestro later this year...
This isn’t from his Young People's Concerts, but rather from a series of lectures he gave at Harvard in 1973. But while the talks are intended for an academic audience, this segment still works very well as a clear, introductory explanation of the concept of the harmonic series and how it provides a way of understanding the foundation of the Western tonal system.
