Music reviews of The Musketeer: Original Motion Picture Soundtrack
Music Review: A swashbuckling good time
Rating: 5 Stars
I have to admit that I am a huge fan of action/adventure scores. David Arnold's score to The Musketeer is awesome music in the Cutthroat Island fashion. (Arnold was first signed on to score Cutthroat Island, but was replaced by John Debney). Anyway, for this score, Arnold returns to his bombastic fanfarish John Williams-like sound that he used in Stargate and Independence Day. What is unique about Arnold's music is that it has its own original voice. "Main Title" introduces the main theme, which is exactly what you would expect coming from a film like this: a loud, explosive brass fanfare with graceful strings. This theme finds itself in several of the tracks in the score, giving the music an incredible boost. Arnold utilizes a secondary theme, first heard in "I Will Find Him", which is a softer and more subtle variation of the main theme played on strings. As you would probably expect, most of the music is action filled and adventurous. "Fight Inn", "Jailhouse Ruck", "The Riot Begins", "Coach Chase", "Ladder Fight", among others contain high adrenaline, pulse pounding action music. "Fight Inn" contains incredible brass fanfares, immense string passages, and driving percussion. "Jailhouse Ruck" contains nicely played triplet patterns for the brass section. On the other side of the nonstop action is romantic music, found in "I Will Find Him", "D'Artagnan and Francesca", and "Down By The River". These 3 tracks are a nice refreshment from the bombastic music heard in the other tracks and fit in nicely. One complaint about this score, however, is the sound recording, which sounds a little bit muffled, like it wasn't recorded in the same room or something. Had the recording of been like Independence Day, this would have really blown you out of your seat. Nevertheless, a great score by Arnold and one that cannot be passed up.
