New Soundtrack: “Angels & Demons”

Angels and Demons, the highly anticipated to Dan Brown’s The DaVinci Code, hits theaters this Friday and I am fairly certain that it’s going to do well (it is the second weekend that Star Trek is playing, though, so I’m not sure it will take the top box office spot.
Anyway, the Angels and Demons soundtrack has now been released and it’s just as creepy as you might expect but, for whatever reason, I quite like it and I feel like it’s completely appropriate for the film’s storyline.
Directed by Ron Howard, Angels and Demons follows Harvard symbologist Robert Langdon (played by Tom Hanks) as he works to solve a murder and prevent a terrorist act against the Vatican.
The music has been composed by Hans Zimmer and Joshua Bell. Zimmer has a very impressive résumé, creating scores for The DaVinci Code along with films like Pirates of the Caribbean (At World’s End and Dead Man’s Chest), Crimson Tide, Gladiator, The Lion King and more. Bell is one of the top young violinists in the world and, together, the music is very beautiful.
