    It does seem a bit out of place. Either way I think the release is worth exploring further.

  3. OK, OK, but we could give, say, Cutthroat Island or Silvestri's Mummy Returns for the sake of Golden Age references. Williams had better scores than Attack of the Clones in last years.

    But have orchestrations for concert orchestra been written for them? Or maybe Debney or Silvestri wanted too much money.
