Written by Thomas Glorieux - Review of the regular release
...
The score is not one of full utter bombast like Reign of Fire, a score so complex and non thematic that made it a gigantic challenge but also a fantastic experience. No, The Count of Monte Cristo is a lot more thematic but still has that ballsy approach that lies in either the orchestration or simply the idea behind the music. And that's what I like so much about this score. For instance "Introduction" brings forth the stylistic voice of Shearmur, opening with bells and exotic percussion, leading way for a short choir and a fanfare to open this score well. But the greatness lies behind that. A track you have to enjoy for its complexity and orchestration is "Landing on Elba", because it uses flutes and trumpets so fascinating in its rhythm that you immediately think back at John Williams. It is literally that divvying.
...
Excellent Tracks:
- Landing on Elba
- Training Montage
- Escape from the Island
- An Invitation to the Ball
- End Titles
