    Jerry Goldsmith so disliked scoring Stephen Sommers’ The Mummy that he refused to do the sequel. Step forward Silvestri who delivered one of his most gargantuan and enjoyable epics. There’s little time for subtlety in this rich blend of Egyptian instrumentation, massive choir and orchestra-shredding battle sequences, but Silvestri has always been o...

    This ’80s family classic is scorched into the minds of an entire generation, no doubt due to repeat bank holiday viewings. Silvestri created one of his most memorable electronic compositions for the movie: composed entirely on the Synclavier, it moves from era-appropriate pop instrumental to a yearning sense of longing. That Silvestri is able to ca...

    Criticised at the time of release for sounding too similar to Forrest Gump, Silvestri’s Contactscore, much like the movie itself, has increased in stature over the years.

It’s a sprawling, picaresque tale as seen through the eyes of Tom Hanks’ naive central character, and Silvestri makes the sensible decison to ground the music in his emotional awakening, rathe...

    Superhero scores were in a rough way in the early noughties, with the melodic impetus of John Williams’ Superman and Danny Elfman’s Batman seemingly not in vogue. Kudos then to director Joe Johnston who realised his nostalgically tinged origin story required a composer whose sound owed more to Hollywood’s Golden Age. By anchoring his Captain Americ...
