Mr Foster's a legend when it comes to Torchwood & Doctor Who music, personal opinion. I'd much rather him compose than Murray Gold. Although I would probably get a brand new composer in for the climax of this series. If I was director. Murray's getting a bit annoying now, nothing fresh and new, just remixes.
Liked the vid, was some good new music in the xmas special.
Have to disagree with Pirate Bay's assessment of Gold. His work has been stellar since day 1 and is the first soundtrack music since Jerry Goldsmith's work for Star Trek TMP that I can listen to over and over. What Pirate calls remixes, I call musical continuity. Bring on the Series 4 soundtrack CD!
to saskabush2006, I'm glad all the comments on here are nice and non insultive, well. most of them.
I think the music for this series was good, it improved towards the finale, but when Foster Composes. It shows. I just wish Gold would actually start making brand new pieces of Doctor Who muic, becase whenever I listen.. it's always the same pieces used in every episodes, randomly chopped together. Again though that's probably the editors fault, or not. What do i know.
Ben Foster is not a legend. Nice guy but not in Murray Gold's league.
Some of the pieces he did or Torchwood with a female singer was him trying to create the same (and better sound) Murray has done with the Doctor. I don't appreciate that.
No, but he doesn't just conduct. He arranges the music. I know not many people get as much credit as he does, and perhaps they should. And I know Murray writes the memorable music to Doctor Who - that's why it says "assisted" and not "written".
I know what u mean i am a viola player and pianist. If u listen to the first series' music it sound naf because it is on all the wrong instruments. But in fairness he was made head judge on bbc young musician. Do you have perfect pitch cos i could never hav done this!!
Although it sometimes sounds too fairgroundish, you really have copied the music well.

"assisted by Ben Foster"
What does he do? Stand next to Murray's piano taking notes?
WhoMusic08 3 years ago
Well, he does do all of the orchestration, which is no mean feat.

Not many conductors get the same credit he gets. I don't get it. Murray writes all the memorable music to Doctor Who.

Happy now? :-)
