hey,
I have a music assignment for school at the moment were I need to do some anylising of some pieces, one of which is thte piece 'The Way of the Sword' fro the Last Samurai by Has Zimmer. What I really need is the score for it. I've been trying to find it for a while (including asking on this (and other) forums). So, firstly, if anyone has it, or knows were I can get it from it would be great if you could let me know. However, I highly doubt that anyone will have it. So, because I don't have the score I'm struggling to work out some of the stuff I need to know. I am only anylising the part of the sone from when the Japanese officer orders his men to fire (when the gun starts up) to when Katsumoto and the American (can't remember his name but is played by Tom Cruise).
What I'm not sure on is;
-the key signature
-form (binary, ternary, rondo, etc.)
-triads and their inversions
-whether or not it modulates and where
-range
-roles of instruments and voices
-conventions associated with particular cultures and styles

There are a lot of others too, but these are the amin ones.

Here is the scene if you wish to watch it.


And here is just the music.

The part I am anylising is from 2.37 to 5.20


Thankyou so very much for you help. I really appriciate it.
