Free Music Notes for Dinosaur: An Original Walt Disney Records Soundtrack

Free Music Review: A wonderfully epic score -- not the usual Disnay fare
Hit: 5 Stars

There are so many great tracks on Dinosaur, I don't know where to begin. Right off the bat it starts off with a very pretty choir on top of gorgeuos harp and string work in 'Inner Sacntum - The Nesting Grounds'. Then the next track, 'The Egg Travels' eventually turns into a wonderful lush string piece, and finnally the first statement of the bold and bombastic main theme. This theme is heard all over the place, including in 'Raptors - Stand Together', 'Breakout', and 'Epilogue' (which also has that lush string theme). 'Raptors - Stand Together' as well as 'Across the Desert' also have my favortie theme, and even more bold brass theme. The third big theme, an African sounding thing, is heard in 'The Courtship' as well as 'It Comes With a Pool'

In fact, the score to Dinosaur relys alot on African rhythms and chants. The same voices that did the chants in The Lion King are back, heard extensively in 'The Courship', 'Across the Desert', and 'It Comes With a Pool'. Beyond all this, there is wonderful slow lush melodic material heard in 'Aladar and Neera' as well as 'Neera Rescues the Orphans'.

Overall, I can't say enough how good this music is. I highly recommend this to anyone, and it's great to see Disney finally releasing a soundtrack that not only has no songs, but most of the score on it. Hopefully this is a sign of great things to come from Disney and Howard, but for now, just buy this and enjoy the great music this CD has to offer.
