Bear McCreary Interview: Rings of Power and Hidden Message in Halbrand's Theme

[@Canbykarma]

Bear is amazing and this was one of the best TV scores in years. Can't wait to hear what he does for S2!

[@Divine_Chareka]

This man is brilliant, his music didn’t disappoint. He truly followed the footsteps of the legendary Howard Shore

[@Nexyyy7]

the music was SO good, can't wait for season 2

[@ricardoelorza613]

All this amazing and inspired music, arguably the best in a long time for a TV series... and not even nominated for an Emmy. Just the main theme... only because Howard Shore composed it. Biggest snub in a very long time.

[@Stereozentrum]

True. That shows how meaningless and plain stupid those awards are in the end...

[@CreativeColosseum]

The music on this show is the best ever created for a fantasy series. I feel it to the core in every scene.

[@Christiane-yt3dr]

Bear is so incredibly inspiring to me. This is a wonderful interview! I have just started on season 2 and his music is carrying this great show.

[@paranoiaaa4126]

[@sarahahmed5806]

[@leoram1991]

Artists: *pour hearts into work* Lazy chips-hogging American boomer audiences: OOGA BOOGA ME NO LIKE (insert disguised racial slur)

[@marynat1078]

I remember this dude sinse Outlander.

[@danielecusmano8961]

Music is literally the only thing i absolutely love of this series

[@sewellanne]

Bear also did a remarkable job with Battlestar Galactica - I still play the music today and even have a BSG ring tone. LOL.

[@mishalee8083]

The music is stunning and I absolutely love what this show has done for Galadriel and Sauron/Halbrand - their arcs, their expanded backgrounds, and their relationship. So much depth and nuance and parallels between them.

6:41 best👌👌

[@Fidi987]

This was being translated into sign language. How would deaf people experience the music? Is there a way? In subtitles, there are usually only some notes shown without giving much detail. I thought that meant that deaf people cannot or hardly experience or imagine music?

[@dr.demontale3250]

The music was superb. I just ask myself how hard it can be to stick to lore we already established. Pity.

[@007DeanBond]

the music was the only good thing. they spent the budget on visuals and not the script. they thought that was the main reason why we loved jackson's trilogy

[@chasehedges6775]

From 10 Cloverfield Lane to this abysmal show. Man, I feel bad for this guy

[@whoshoo]

he got the chance to prove he can turn trash to gold. don’t be sorry for him

[@chasehedges6775]

@@whoshoo I DO FEEL BAD FOR HIM. He should be working on good stuff, not this abysmal trash.

[@whoshoo]

i love the soundtrack but can bear shut up about halbrand’s theme for five seconds and talk about something else?

[@Harriz62]

Even the music is garbage in the worst television show of all time. Congratulations Amazon on creating the biggest failure in the entire entertainment industry of all time.

[@chasehedges6775]

💯💯

[@chasehedges6775]

Great music, terrible show
