Intrada Soundtrack Forum

I just posted this in the regular Goldsmith Odyssey thread, but seeing as how Intrada is basically Bruce Broughton Central and maybe some actual discussion could spring up here about it, I thought this perhaps deserved its own thread!

In a truly nice bit of timing considering our recently having covered more of Jerry's fine Gunsmoke work, my latest Odyssey interview is with someone who got his composing start at CBS television on that very same show! Bruce's memories of his CBS years were a particular gift that kept on giving in this conversation, as he worked closely with a lot of people who knew Jerry from his time under contract there just over a decade earlier, and (before he even got to know Jerry better) he found his way into multiple recording sessions, such as Brotherhood of the Bell! Among a wide variety of subjects spanning the breadth of his entire Hollywood career through to The Orville, we also discuss the three (!) times he was asked to adapt a Goldsmith theme, his insights into incorporating unusual instruments with the typical symphony orchestra, and his experience in the world of concert music, with an exclusive clip of his upcoming Trombone Concerto, "Quaternity"!

I hope you all enjoy listening to the conversation as much as I enjoyed having it, and I hope you'll chime in with any thoughts should you feel so inclined.

P.S. In addition to Bruce himself, I'd like to thank Doug and Roger here, and Randy Thornton their friend at Disney, for their kind assistance in facilitating the inclusion of a precious 30 seconds of the unreleased score to Soarin' Around the World, which was so helpful to illustrate Bruce's skillful putting Jerry's melody into new ethnically flavored musical settings. I think it was way back in a 2016 interview where Bruce originally revealed that Doug was working on a set of his Disney Parks compositions, so I'm sure everyone here will be pleased to know that work on that has not been abandoned, almost four years later. I for one am sure that whenever it comes out, it will be worth the wait!

Great interview! And awesome to hear the set is essentially done. I’m sure Randy Thornton will do a great job of getting it out soon

So glad you enjoyed the interview. I think what Bruce said was that the set *was* essentially done, before the decision was made to add more to it!

But I'm crossing my fingers for 2020.

Since it looks like Bruce isn’t attached to any upcoming projects as of yet, I think there’s a good chance sooner than later!
