Music that is described as purely instrumental art can be challenging to interpret, yet it is without words one would assume the music is open to interpretation. Therefore, that is why I find that instrumental music set an atmospheric presents. Who would think that from instruments alone something so fragmented and incomprehensible could stir such emotions? Yet, we receive such a definite feeling of impressible feeling of longing, sadness, anger, joy, fright and many more such emotions. The inner workings of all the instruments set everything together, especially the inner themes that allow the listener to achieve so many different moods. The score by Ed Harcourt “like water like rain” is a beautiful piece. I discovered by chance when watching

Thus, the music is purely romantic, and if he had less success with vocal music, it is because vocal music excludes the character of been unanimous. I had no idea who Ed Harcourt was until I heard this score in a movie that I watched. And thou he didn’t speak a word I was compelled to find out who wrote this score. Harcourt manages to transport his listeners through a wonderful composition that leads to a growing progression and ends with an unsurprised climax. Nothing could be simpler than when a musician set the tone of a piece and delivered as expected. The unison of the cello and the trumpet is remarkably equal and leaves no room for surprises.

The structure of the movements is constantly guided by the piano. The way they are linked together is working towards a single goal, a happy ending. The instrumentation assures the listener that they are in unisons with each other. Alas this assures the listener to achieve one single mood. All this is apparent by the connection between the cello and the trumpet. Their movements are in sync with each other and their goal is common. Lenard Bernstein once said, “music can name the unnameable and communicate the unknowable”. It is easy to understand how, like Sunday like rain score did just that. Even without words the music is organized in such a way that the ending comes as no surprise to the listener. The ending comes in like a beautiful sunrise, peaceful and tranquil.
