BF2S Forums Favorite movie soundtrack

Composer Alan Silvestri was originally hired to write the score for The Curse of the Black Pearl. However due to creative differences between him and producer Jerry Bruckheimer, Silvestri left the project and Gore Verbinski asked Hans Zimmer whom he had worked with on The Ring to step in. Zimmer declined to do the bulk of the composing as he was busy scoring The Last Samurai. However, he referred Verbinski to Klaus Badelt[2], a relatively new composer who'd been a part of Remote Control Productions (formerly known as Media Ventures) for three years.

Zimmer and Badelt wrote the film's themes. Many of these are featured in an all-synthesized demo credited to Zimmer. (This demo can be listened to from a link about halfway down[1] this page. It is also included in Pirates of the Caribbean: Soundtrack Treasures Collection.) This demo presents three of the score's themes and motifs, concluding with an early version of "He's A Pirate". It is longer and contains departures from the final cue, including development of a melody Zimmer wrote for the score to Drop Zone.) Since the schedule was very tight and the music was needed for the film in three weeks time, seven other composers — Ramin Djawadi, James Dooley, Nick Glennie-Smith, Steve Jablonsky, Blake Neely, James McKee Smith, and Geoff Zanelli — were also called upon to help orchestrate the music and write additional cues. The resulting score was recorded with a small group of musicians, credited as the Hollywood Studio Symphony, over the course of four days. The short time frame demanded the use of a different recording studio for each session. Meanwhile, a male choir, the Metro Voices, was recorded in London.
