Muse and Classical music


Gios

Recommended Posts

Hello! I've noted many references, in Muse'songs, at Classical Music...Can you help me to find all?

The most easy to note is in United State of Eurasia (The Resistance): Chopin Nocturne op.9 n.2 in Eb

 

Thank you a lot

 

Gios:)

Overture - LOTR film score

Redemption - Moonlight Sonata

 

NSC - Pachelbel's Canon

Microcuts - Bach piece, forget it though.

 

Unnatural Selection - New Born

In Your World riff - Tocatta and fuge in D minor by Bach

 

Many many more though.

Oh thank you:).... I recognized some pieces (Redemption as Moonlight sonata for example) but I wasn't sure.. Cross-pollination seem similar to Rapsody in Blue, I heard both but I'm not convinced....

A few others:

 

Rachmaninov prelude in G minor (bridge in Assassin)

Ravel's Bolero (USoE)

Philip Glass Pruit Igoe (the strings in Overture)

Concerto 2 (I think) Rachmaninov (Space Dementia)

 

Interlude is similar to Barber's Adagio For Strings, and the piano part in Hoodoo reminds me of Tchaikovksy.

 

The piano in Hoodoo is Concerto 1 from Tchaikovksy.

I agree with some Gershwin (I can hear some in IBTY as well) but Redemption and Cross-pollination reminds me of Liszt Liebestraume.

No, they are not alike....they are practically plagiarism.

 

Interlude IS Adagio for strings, note for note.

 

Hoodoo is the start of Tchai's piano concerto numero 1

 

It's not really an infulence, they pretty much just steal from other composer's works.

You cannot steal from classical pieces though. Just so you know.

I would have thought you'd slightly changed due to being banned, but it appears not so.

The arpeggiated strings in Overture are similar to "Rivendell" from Fellowship of the Ring

In Soldier's Poem, the "No, I don't think you do" line is taken from Ave Maria

The end of Endlessly's chorus is from Liszt's Liebeslied and Liebestraum 3.

 

ALSO, in terms of riffage

 

KoC's ending riff is taken from a Dream Theater song. Can't remember which one though.

Hyper Music's bassline is from Rage (again, can't remember which one. Something about a snake charmer?)

Let's stop this from becoming yet another argument thread. God knows we've got enough already.

 

 

End of NSC - Not sure, but it's Rachmaninov apparently

Also Matt's stated that Sunburn was inspired by Chopin, and I'm sure that goes for New Born too.
