The initial question posed by BD has nothing to do with artistic relevance though.

Is this thread still relevant today?

Most people use Facebook and Twitter, not forums. Just because we're in that niche doesn't mean everyone is. This thread was never relevant.

Victor Frankenstein

Yeah it's absolutely relevant and I agree with all of you.

But we have to talk even about the role of classical music in the advertising and marketing in general.

In the cinema for example, the use of modern classical pieces is not random, in fact the classical music is the only one that can forwad collectively a lot of feels and tell alone a lot of stories.


A practical example: Forrest Gump opening scene

Blank.

I strongly disagree.

Frownland

Me too. Many other genres can move a story forwad successfully, it's just that the standard is classical music.

Classical music helps emit the emotion without stealing the scene away from the actors.

And there's a reason why every music teacher ever will say minor chords are sad blah blah blah.

Victor Frankenstein

Ok this according your point of view, I'm talking about what producers actually do.

take me some examples of trailer/teaser/entire scenes of a movies that want to encrease the emotional stuff with a different genre (don't take me the trailer of Suicide Squad please that its juxtaposition of a song in a different situation became a trend).

Usually metal is also used in action movies, but a genre to a genre.

All trailers use an audio language that is performed by orchestra or that it followed the print of classical music. (James Horner,the composer of Titanic soundtrack for example takes inspirations by classical composer like Prokofiev or Wagner and mix their sound with electronic instruments)

The audio track used for the first time in the trailer of Spiderman 2 by Sam Raimi, that epic track with the usual "beat" in sequence, this type of "soundtrack" is arleady used in ALMOST ALL movies and videogames trailer.
And you can't do it with a different music genre.

All the most famous movies' soundtrack are modern classical music as genre, Star Wars, Jaws, Jurassic Park, Indiana Jones, Inception, Harry Potter etc..

It's a standard yeah, because it works and it's totally revelant.. so Frownland, you are agree with me saying that lol
