Greetings! ScoreKeeper here revving up the hype machine with a brief article regarding James Horner’s “hugely cinematic” score for James Cameron’s upcoming 3D sci-fi saga, AVATAR (2009).

Not much has been reported about Horner’s score until now. Mikael Carlsson over at MovieScore Magazine has an exclusive article regarding some of the details surrounding the music Horner has been crafting since June of 2008.

…Mike Knobloch, the executive vice president of Fox Music, describes James Horner’s music for the film as epic. “It’s a brilliantly unique blend of traditional and contemporary, electronic elements and spans the entire spectrum of attitude and energy – from bombastic action to the delicate, romantic discovery of a new world.”

There's no doubt this is one of the most anticipated scores of the year. Marking their first science fiction collaboration together since ALIENS (1986), Horner and Cameron aim to up the ante in regards to music. With time running out, the world does not have much longer to wait.
