Black Sails Musical Parallels | VII. VIII. XIV. XVI. XXII. XXVI.

music variation note: the first three scenes are all in high sounding strings.
The scenes in XVI and XXVI are played on lower strings and a couple octaves down.
The scene in XXII is in a mix of high and mid strings, and in an octave between the other scenes.


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'*
