Free Music Notes for The Terminal (Score)

Free Music Review: yep, another Williams goldmine
Hit: 5 Stars

Track 1: The Tale of Viktor Navorski -- A sprightly theme played primarily by a clarinetist. It's vaguely European, whimsical, and just hefty enough to immediately become one of Williams's best-ever main themes. Viktor's theme is very prominent across the entire CD, but it never gets old or tiresome.

Track 2: Dinner with Amelia -- This is a long track that begins with some lovely Sabrina-esque accordion music, and then goes into more traditionally symphonic areas before returning to the accordion themes again. This is certainly one of the most romantic pieces Williams has ever written, and is as good as Viktor's theme.

Track 7: Jazz Autographs -- As the title implies, this is a jazzy number, in the mode of cool (i.e., slow) jazz, with some excellent work by a pianist and a bass player.

Track 9: Krakhozia National Anthem and Homesickness -- Williams actually composed a national anthem for the invented European nation Viktor hails from, and it's totally believable, sounding at the same time like every other national anthem you've ever heard AND different enough to have its own identity. A masterful piece of composition.

Those are just the high points. The CD is around an hour long, and it's all very listenable. If the movie is as good, then we are in for a treat.
