A rare pairing of A-list Hollywood composers, The Last of the Mohicans teams Trevor Jones and Randy Edelman, who replaced the former midway through production. The resulting score suffers from the schizophrenia one would expect given its abrupt creative shift, but proves greater than the sum of its parts thanks to a series of impressively epic ...
The fantasy film The Dark Crystal is a live-action feature performed entirely by puppets created by the Jim Henson organization, also responsible for the Muppets. As such, it is visually unusual, but Trevor Jones' score is a traditional orchestral work in the Hollywood tradition. In Randall D. Larson's liner notes to the 25th anniversary edition ...

The Hughes Brothers' film adaptation of the Jack the Ripper graphic novel From Hell features an appropriately tense, moody score by Trevor Jones. Jones uses simmering strings in many of the pieces, such as "Chasing the Dragon," "Death Coach," and "A Sprig of Red Grapes," to convey the growing fear in the Whitechapel district as the serial killer ...

Although film score composers must write functional music that responds to the emotional and dramatic needs of their films, many adopt an overall stylistic approach, either in terms of instrumentation or style. Trevor Jones, whose score makes up the bulk of this "music from" soundtrack, in contrast seems determined to demonstrate his versatility, ...
In the summer of 2004, Walt Disney Pictures bet an estimated 140 million dollars (including marketing costs) that audiences were ready for another adaptation of Jules Verne's 1873 novel Around the World in Eighty Days, 48 years after the celebrated 1956 Michael Todd production, with aging kung fu comedian Jackie Chan essaying the role that made ...
Trevor Jones' music for this elaborate and ambitious Jim Henson/George Lucas production was filled with synthesizers blended cautiously into orchestral ensembles to provide a suitably ethereal tone -- one echoed very well by David Bowie's Goblin King singing the haunting "Within You" while stalking the film's heroine. This variant on the ...

Trevor Jones' score for Barbet Schroeder's thriller Desperate Measures is a little too melodramatic for its own good, but it still effectively captures the tension of the film. ~ Rodney Batdorf, All Music Guide

Trevor Jones' grandiose Cliffhanger vividly captures the age-old battle between man and nature. Few action scores of the era possess a comparable sense of place, evoking the peaks and vistas of the film's mountain terrain with as much passion as its over-the-top adventure scenes. While elements of Jones' soaring main theme closely recall his ...
