According to his official site, David Arnold will team up again with Michael Apted to score the Voyage of the Dawn Dreader. Arnold and Apted worked on Amazing Grace and The World is Not Enough.

This is interesting news. I'm intrigued to hear Arnold's take on fantasy (where he'll most likely leave his electronics out), but it'll certainly be a switch compared to Harry Gregson-Williams. HGW score to the first film was excellent as far as I'm concerned. It took me a few listens to really enjoy it, but I now find it phenomenal. It's a different approach to fantasy then we're used to, I think because for the most part, it's incredibly restrained and subtle.

Haha, best mistake I've made in a long time.

Harry Gregson-Williams will be doing Caspian with Andrew Adamson again. From what I remember, production on the Dawn Treader will begin soon. Disney is planning to overlap the making of the films in order to get them out faster.

I saw this the other day. I for one am really excited for Arnold to get back to the adventure genre which made me a fan of his in the first place.

Wow, well that's interesting. Hopefully he can do a better job than Gregson-Williams.

I think the only track I loved in LWW was "The Battle" just for that opening sweep once the music flares up. happy


And I'm fixing the title cuz it's bugging me. laugh
