Released in 1991, the Julia Roberts movie, Dying Young was said to be the biggest box office film of the spring season. If you are saying, "never heard of it", you are not alone. The movie failed, but the one thing it had going for it was a James Newton Howard's instrumental score which is much better than the movie it was written for. The movie may have been tough to watch, but the soundtrack is quite beautiful, and showcases Kenny G at his best. Do you enjoy instrumental soundtracks?

1995 was probably one of the best years for James Horner with six movies scored by the very in-demand composer. These included three huge projects released within a single month during that year's early summer blockbuster season: Braveheart, Apollo 13 and Casper. While the first two titles went on to earn acclaim, audience and critical approval, Casper, quickly evaporated from audiences' memory. However, the soundtrack features some of the most energetic, enjoyable, comedic, and "spirited" music the composer has written. Are you familiar with the artistry of James Horner, who also did the soundtrack to Titanic, Legends of the Falls, Avatar and Forest Gump?
