Another masterful score by John Barry. I really enjoyed this film and can't believe I let it slip through the cracks for so long.

I totally agree, a beautiful score. I particularly like the scene showing the moon set to electronic noises over the orchestrations

I disagree. I thought parts of the film were over - orchestrated, where a more natural sound may have benefited proceedings.

The score is intrusive at times, but it's so beautiful you find yourself not minding. I particularly enjoyed the "Who Killed Rock Robin?" parts of the score.
