Steven Spielberg reinvented the cliffhanger adventure formula of the '40s and '50s with this Harrison Ford blockbuster. Longtime collaborator and composer John Williams further ignited the screen with his rousing and robust score. Williams, who had already lent his deft hand to such notable Spielberg films as JAWS, elevated RAIDERS OF THE LOST ARK to instant-classic status with a score marked by triumphant choirs of brass and bravura.
On CD, the soundtrack has been treated with the attention it deserves. Fans all over the globe can rejoice in Williams' complete score, remastered and reissued in a beautiful cardboard slipcase. Exhaustive liner notes detail the music's creation, and entire pieces never featured in the film are restored. Williams' mighty symphonic tome is an adventurous exploration for the ear, by turns foreboding when necessary or dazzling in the grand, epic manner of Hollywood's bygone era, yet always powerful.
