2005 there was dead silence... but this year Alan is back with two motion picture scores and one composition for a big live show under his belt.

Now that the Night At The Museum CD is out there we can finally start a poll where you can vote your most favourite silvestri work of the year. Here you can also point out what you liked about his recent stuff and maybe also what you did not like so much.

Even though I haven't watched Night At The Museum yet, I must say that this score is the most satisfying of the bunch as a listening experience. The wild was only 31 minutes on CD and while it was well orchestrated and certainly had it's moments, it is a tad too mickey-mousy for me while Night At The Museum offers much more colour and thus fares much better even over a much longer album cut of 53 minutes sequenced into 35 tracks. If you ask me, that's a real admirable achievement with this kind of score. It offers a bit of everything that makes Silvestri's music great even within the shortest cues. The Sea Legend is also very good show music with some quite creative moments but the album with it's japanese dialogue makes it hard to enjoy.

So my vote goes to: Night At The Museum

Night At The Museum will be a good one I think. But I haven't heard or seen it yet.

My vote goes to The Wild. Maybe the theme it's not that great like The Night at the Museum but the whole score it's more enjoyable. This time less it's better.

Voted for Night At The Museum.
It has a very enjoyable 80's flavour to me.
The Wild was good, but Night A tThe Museum has a little more "personality" IMHO.
The Megend Of Mythica, is really not the kind of Silvestri score that listen often. It's cheerness and cheesyness is quite noisy to my ears. There's a snare percussion motif though ! (as uwual with Alan, he's great at snares rythms)
