Game of Thrones Theme by Ramin Djawadi

We all know that every music genre has a special fan circle, people who stick to what they like and follow the recent music novelties and offers. Even though you may like a couple of genres it’s not that you would often get attracted by very contrasting genres. And of course, it’s quite rare that a music piece would leave the borders of its genre and travel throughout others.

I’ll explain better what I mean on the example of music from the popular HBO channel TV series “Game of Thrones”. Its theme was composed by Grammy-nominated Mr. Djawadi who’s also a protégé of the no less known Hans Zimmer. Ramin Djawadi wrote music to the entire series and it’s not at all his first tangibly significant music work (Djawadi wrote music for Prison Break, Batman, Pirates of the Caribbean, and others).

The theme keeps you in a certain kind of tension, just like the unpredictable and intriguing series’ plot. The work got so popular that at some point it became a cross-genre kind of thing. The consequence – numerous covers from various genres artists ( Lindsey Stirling , Roger Lima, Jason Yang, and so on and so forth). I like Game of Thrones though I’m not its ardent fan. What I like even more is the extensive quality music work behind this TV production.

Do You Want to Build a Snowman?

I’ve always loved Disney’s works and I don’t think there has been at least one film that didn’t break my heart open. I’m no longer a 10-year-old kid but these animated movies are something I can always watch like a bewildered child.

If earlier in childhood I loved them mostly for the magic that Disney manages to create in every film work, now that I grew up to focus on things beyond that, I started making other points for being in love with Disney. And the greatest compliment a musician could make is adoring the music behind the films and longing to perform it yourself. Disney does know how to make good music.

One of the recent animated films by Disney is the popular “Frozen” that has already drawn a lot of attention due to the awesome animation, the great music and the star voicing staff. Some works have become very popular out of the cartoon’s context and I’m not surprised about that. Thus, one of my favorite pieces is the “Do You Want to Build a Snowman?” song performed by Anna in the film. The drawn kid is adorable but the live image of Anna depicted by Kristen Bell is even more adorable. The talented actress managed to act as and sing for all the three Annas at different stages of her life (3, 9 and 15). Beautiful melody, lovely acting and flexible voice of Kristen, enjoy:
