Press Release from La-La Land:
La-La Land Records, Paramount Pictures and WEA present an expanded and remastered 2-CD re-issue of legendary composer Jerry Goldsmith’s (THE OMEN, STAR TREK – THE MOTION PICTURE, BASIC INSTINCT) original motion picture score to the 2002 Paramount Pictures espionage thriller THE SUM OF ALL FEARS. Based on the acclaimed Tom Clancy novel, the film stars Ben Affleck, Morgan Freeman and Liev Schreiber, and was directed by Phil Alden Robinson.
This Goldsmith treasure returns to La-La Land Records better and bigger than ever in an all-new 2-CD presentation that unleashes the Maestro’s power in all of its brilliance. Striking themes and motifs abound in the composer’s powerhouse orchestral score, expertly weaving patriotism and hope with chilling dread and nail-biting suspense in equal measure – an undoubtedly important work from this iconic maestro’s final chapter.
Produced by Neil S. Bulk and Bruce Botnick, this special release offers the score presentation and additional music, newly mixed and mastered by Botnick, on Disc 1, while Disc 2 features the remastered original 2002 soundtrack album with its unique takes, songs and segues. This limited edition of 3000 units features liner notes by writer Jeff Bond (updated from our 2014 release) and thrilling new art direction by Dan Goldwasser.
