Legend – 2 x CD Expanded Score – Limited 2000 Copies – Jerry Goldsmith (OUT OF PRINT)

Performed by the National Philharmonic Orchestra with a large choir and a broad mix of spellbinding electronic textures, Goldsmith’s score features enchanting songs, a wide-ranging blend of melodies from the romantic themes for Tom Cruise’s and Mia Sara’s characters to motifs for goblins, unicorns, faeries and elves, and a brooding melody for Tim Curry’s imposing character of Darkness. Ranging from evocative impressionism to grand, operatic statements, the score marked the apotheosis of Jerry Goldsmith’s symphonic impressionism of the early 1980s and the composer himself ranked it as his finest work for many years.
