Document Summary
Theme of robin hood = a march (a group activity) The merry men group are the heroes, not just robin hood. We would anticipate a team such as that in the seahawks where we are reminded of the heroism of an individual but this is not the case. Love theme also present in the opening credits scene 4: friar tuck. Initial theme played primarily on bassoon and muted trumpet - comic in nature. Sword fight - same as little john battle - more exciting / swords. Ends with merry men theme scene 5: marion and robin i. Quiet variation of the peril theme as marion sees the saxons. Second theme is the same as that from the opening credits - love theme scene 6: marion and robin 2. Love theme for the big kiss - big strings / moment of spectacle (orchestra emphasizes this moment the most, making it less intimate and thus not too overpowering at first)
