For the score to Doyle chose a rather atonal music, even if "Rise Of The Planet Of The Apes" very melodic sounds. And some themes or motifs can be found also, most succinctly are probably the topics for Ceasar, which will be played intensively in "The Beginning" and "Ceasars Home". There are the monkey theme that is heard in "Buck Is Released" and in the final Action Tracks. While Ceasars topic very dramatic and loving sounds at the same time, we hear the monkey theme a threatening and aggressive mood.
And so it is with the rest of the soundtrack: a mixture of gentle sounds, mixed with a little romance and fast and impulsive action titles. Especially at the end it comes right around and orchestra and percussion show everything they have to offer.
And the mixture has managed the orchestra, or the African sounds representieren nature and the desire for freedom of the monkeys and the electronic parts are available for the scientific and experimental content in the film.
Overall Doyles Score is a guarantee of the right atmosphere. Dark drum passages, tender strings and the opulent horn parts are impressive and make you feel an impending disaster.
If you've seen the movie, the score is a real pleasure, because you will experience the history with reference to the music, which is always a clear advantage for me, because that is a main object of film music. However, the problem is the score that he sometimes has to movie relation, that is, that one is without the strip probably not as convinced of the music. This is among other things the fact that Doyle obviously geared to the RC style of rooms & Co. The Synthpercussions strongly reminiscent of older Media Ventures', yet never seems something copied or stolen. Patrick Doyle is doing great, I'll give him, even if this score is a masterpiece!
In addition, one should mention that as all the important pieces are on the CD as well available, which can be found in the film also. Missing one does anything!
Who is on solid and compelling soundtrack, which should access. "Rise Of The Planet Of The Apes" makes in terms of atmosphere, drama, action and duration (60 minutes) everything right!
