Charles Vane | Proper Pirate - D (Part 3) Black Sails Musical Parallels | XXXIII. XXXIV.

music breakdown note: The music in this parallel is made up of parts A and B. Parts C and D are each a different extension of part A. E is a tease of A (only the first two notes of part A)

All the scenes in this group have D. The scene in XXXIV also includes A.

music variation note: The music in the scene in XXXIII is played on strings and in a lower key. The scene in XXXIV is played on hurdy gurdy.

Part 1 | Part 2 | Part 3

AB | A | B | C | D | E

I spent a year rewatching Black Sails and tracking all the bits of music that repeated at any point during the show, and my findings are reinforcing that Bear McCreary is a genius and this show should have been called 'parallels that will kill you over and over again'* (tag | chronological)

Ground Shifting Black Sails Musical Parallels | X. XXVIII. XXXII. XXXIV. XXXV. XXXVIII.

music variation note: The music in XXXII is in a lower key than the first two scenes. XXXIV is in a higher key, and goes into a minor rather than major. The music in XXXV adds more strings and fuller chords as it repeats. XXXVIII is also in a lower key, and slightly different phrasing in the pauses between notes.
