Joris Ivens - Regen (1929) Parte 1

[Hadewijch]

As a lover of Joris Ivens (and documentaries in general), I must agree with the others who said that music does not have any place here.

I do like what you've done. Maybe, in the name of artistic purity, just renaming the video, mentioning the "interpretative" part that you've added, would make a difference.

What is the name of the music?

[dominicue]

Clearly a remarkable " imagistic" type of film, all atmospheric. The music is tailor maid to correspond, tonally, to the diegetic events portrayed. To suggest eliminating the instrumental notes and replacing them with a pitter-patter sound-track of rain is laughably if charmingly naive. It demonstrates that the viewer just isn't getting /appreciating the intentionality of the filmmaker (who obviously could have used a soundtrack of rain had he wanted to).

I appreciate your appreciation for the artists´ intensions, but this is a silent film shot in 1929. According to "anaferreria" the music was added in 2005 and has therfore nothing to do with Ivens intentions. Beside I don´t understand why you disqualify suggestions of other users as "laughably" and "charmingly naive". Tastes are different.

"this is a silent film shot in 1929. According to 'anaferreria' the music was added in 2005 and has therfore nothing to do with Ivens intentions"

So dominicue is blatantly and shamefully wrong :)

Very interesting and great film. Only... the music does not at all fit with it. It gives a totally other atmosphere than the pictures suggest. Meaningless tunes.

Pity!

I recommend you all people to watch this short without its music, but with real raining sound. It's even more beautiful.

[Hadewijch]

@paulmx

I agree. The sound of rain is endlessly interesting (if you know how to listen to it ;-)) and beautiful as it is.

In this particular context, it is the only possible audio "accompaniment" that I can imagine.

[anaferreria]

Beautiful short film. The music here was done by Larry Marotta in 2005.

[Mazurka1001]

I don't know if this is the original score, but fits very soothingly one of my all-time favorite films....

[languagerecovery]

What's the music of this film? The original is by Lichtveld, but this video has anther song... do you know what's it?

[Rongart]

you can find the original music from hanns eisler on my channel!

[AtziriKaiser]

bello!

[doctorverga]
