Thursdays – James Bond Film Music
11/7 & 11/14 @ 2:00 PM/CH
Instructor: Ira Miller
11/7: We will focus on the James Bond films when Pierce Brosnan was James Bond and when David Arnold would become the heir apparent to John Barry. These films will include Tomorrow Never Dies, The World is Not Enough and Die Another Day.
11/14: I will bring the series on Music of the James Bond Film Franchise to an end with a talk on the final five James Bond Films. These films, which hit the movie theaters during 2006 through 2021, featuring the first blond-haired James Bond, Daniel Craig, would culminate in the death of Bond at the end of No Time to Die. We will discuss how composers David Arnold, Thomas Newman, and Hans Zimmer modernized the James Bond sound, and how a new generation of songwriters would create memorable theme songs for the series.
