My Favourite Film Score

My favourite film score is from Jurassic Park (1993). This was composed and conducted by John Williams. John Neufeld orchestrated most of the cues while Alexander Courage orchestrated three and Conrad Pope partially orchestrated two others. The name of this film score is Jurassic Park: Original Motion Picture Soundtrack and the reason I like it is because of the way it creates a childlike sense of wonder and fits into the fantasy adventure tale.

It’s use of soaring strings and dramatic brass allows an ominous tone to represent the danger that lurks within the park. The suspense it creates conjures up a feeling of adventure and adversity which is precisely why I think it’s one of the best film scores made. It’s also  number 44 in the “Top 50 Best Film Scores of all Time”.
