CAN WE PLEASE TAKE A MOMENT TO APPRECIATE THIS LIVE PERFORMANCE!? The sassiness, the cuntness, the drama, the falsetto!!! I've been repeating this scene on loop.

I prefer this version than the one in the soundtrack and I'm not sorry to say it. Sam Reid is magnificent!!!

Apparently, Daniel Hart confirmed the name of this song like a month ago on Twitter, but I’ve abandoned that place so I missed it. This is the origin of “The C” or “The Memory Note” (and it’s on Assad’s “Shadow” playlist).

Ok, I am the only one who became obsessed with Pelléas and Mélisande after listening to this?

For context: "Pelléas and Mélisande (French: Pelléas et Mélisande) is a Symbolist play by the Belgian playwright and author Maurice Maeterlinck. It's about the forbidden, doomed love of the title characters and was first performed in 1893.

The work never achieved great success on stage, apart from operatic setting by Claude Debussy, but was at the time widely read and admired by the symbolist literary elite, such as Strindberg and Rilke. It inspired other contemporary composers, like Gabriel Fauré, Arnold Schoenberg, Jean Sibelius, and Mel Bonis.

Synopsis: Golaud finds Mélisande by a stream in the woods. She has lost her crown in the water but does not wish to retrieve it. They marry, and she instantly wins the favor of Arkël, Golaud's grandfather and king of Allemonde, who is ill. She begins to be drawn to Pelléas, Golaud's brother. They meet by the fountain, where Mélisande loses her wedding ring. Golaud grows suspicious of the lovers, has his son Yniold spy on them, and discovers them caressing, whereupon he kills Pelléas and wounds Mélisande. She later dies after giving birth to an abnormally small girl. Source: Wikipedia.

A very interesting aspect is that it is a Symbolist play adapted numerous time, but especially by Debussy as an opera, that I'm sure Lestat has **convinced** Louis to watch 😄

Also on Wikipedia: "A brief summary of the play will concentrate best on Mélisande. At the beginning of the play she has just escaped from a failed marriage that has so traumatized her that she scarcely remembers either it or her past. She marries Golaud with no choice of her own, and remains essentially distant from him. The audience realize she is falling in love with Pelléas long before she does. On her deathbed she has quite forgotten her final meeting with Pelléas and his death, and dies without realizing that she is dying. This and the whole play—for none of the other characters are wiser—expresses a sense that human beings understand neither themselves nor each other nor the world. The problem is not simply human blindness, but the lack of a fixed and definable reality to be known. This is the Maeterlinck who paved the way for the plays of Samuel Beckett.

A key element in the play is the setting, whether visible in the stage scenery or described in the dialogue. The action takes place in an ancient, decaying castle, surrounded by deep forest, which only occasionally lets sunlight in, and with caverns underneath it that breathe infected air and are in danger of collapse. As numerous critics have pointed out, all this symbolizes the dominating power throughout the action of a destiny fatal to mankind. "

I just love how specific this is, how appropriate and how evocative the whole story is of Louis and Lestat, and I love how Louis does remember it and includes it in his Dreamstat version of it in Paris 🙈

thank fuck that this page managed to find all the songs that play in the background in some scenes of interview with the vampire! I made a youtube playlist!!

[disaster-vampires]

killing time until i can watch episode 3 by learning the iwtv soundtrack by ear

i almost have all of “Imagine Never Being Able To Dream” memorized

[greedandenby]

Forgot to post this here!

Like i did for IWTV s01 (see pinned post), I'm creating a complete soundtrack playlist for s02, with every piece of music featured in the show (if i can find and identify them). Updating as each new episode drops.

Enjoy! 💜🎼🎶

Going through boxes that have been in the closet since I moved trying to get stuff put away and I found my CD copy of the Interview with the Vampire movie soundtrack (also the DVD... also some really dorky photos of me as a 20-year-old goth kid loose in San Francisco).

I keep everything, I'm worse than Armand.

[maraferaventi]

has anyone already made tabs/music sheet for the "The Five Great Laws" soundtrack? I really want to play it on guitar but I have no idea how to identify musical notes by ear😭

if anyone on here has the music sheet and are willing to share it - please do! I'll do my best to translate it into guitar tabs, and I'll share it here, too, if I'm successful*

*even tho tbh I'm not very skillful in doing that, but I'm very persistent😅

FACE PRESSED UP AGAINST YOUR LONGING!! This is such a beautiful line!! 😭💔 And the accuracy with the grammar mistakes. I can't... 😭 I ache for my babygirl...

But after this beautiful piece of romantic drama, I remembered Lestat also sings:

𝑪𝒐𝒎𝒆 𝒕𝒐 𝒎𝒆, 𝒚𝒐𝒖 𝒍𝒊𝒕𝒕𝒍𝒆 𝒘𝒉𝒐𝒓𝒆

𝒀𝒐𝒖 𝒐𝒏𝒍𝒚 𝒘𝒂𝒏𝒕 𝒉𝒊𝒎 𝒄𝒂𝒖𝒔𝒆 𝒚𝒐𝒖'𝒓𝒆 𝒇𝒆𝒆𝒍𝒊𝒏𝒈 𝒃𝒍𝒖𝒆...

Just give me a moment to process the character of this bitch 🤣

P.S: The comedy and grief are so perfectly combined in this season. Congratulations to all the IWTV team cause they make you cry, but also laugh, scream and I'm on the edge of insanity just like Louis!

Hart: The music box that plays in Lestat’s apartment in New Orleans, “For a Young Violinist,” is a music box that plays a tune that he supposedly wrote (for his former lover), violinist Nicolas de Lenfent. I wasn’t sure whether to put it on the soundtrack or not because it just makes an appearance in this one scene, and then it’s not talked about again for the rest of the season.

It was also one of my favorite things that I wrote for this season, so I put it on. People really love that one. The fans of the show and the books really love Nicolas and his story, and the fact that he’s a musician himself means that he deserves a lot of music for his character.

"Vicious" by Daniel Hart, feat. Damir Orascanin

"Recording "Vicious" for Interview With The Vampire Season One, Episode Five at Synchron Stage, Vienna. One of my favorite pieces of music I've written in a long time.

As a violinist who plays a lot of my own parts on my scores, I haven't always been able to trust other violinists to see the architecture of the performance the way I see it. But look at Synchron's Concertmaster Damir Orascanin just slaying those violin solos. An absolute beast. Watching him play gives me life. The whole orchestra killing it, Bernhard conducting the hell out of this piece, shaping what's on paper into something much more.

Shows like Vampire are rare: the amount of trust and positive encouragement coming my way throughout the process, the willingness of the studio to believe in its show runner's vision, allowing us to take some musical risks, some big swings...it's hard to imagine it getting better than Season One was. I feel incredibly lucky that someone gave me this canvas to paint." - Daniel Hart

The fact that „Come to me“ has the same vibe as „Think of me“ in the Phantom of the Opera is surely no coincidence and I adore it.

[greedandenby]

I took the liberty of asking and Daniel Hart says there is no footage of Sam singing Come to Me 😭

This just makes me even more excited for rockstar Lestat. No hiding from the cameras then, Samothy!

[lestatisprince]

Okay but what if we get Nicolas playing this at some point!?

[zombie-bait]

I need the context for Come to Me so bad. Is it an in-universe song that Lestat wrote for Louis?? Did he write it during iwtv?? Is it part of his rockstar era in the modern day?? H e l p

[yruxullust]

Dunno how to deal with the urge to ask Daniel Hart if the IWTV ost was influenced by Giuseppe Tartini's music (cause it sounds like that to me) and if it is some kind of nod to Lestat's story since "Il trillo del diavolo" was used for the scene in the train with Claudia.
