Trevor Jones - The Dark Crystal Suite 

Here’s the thing: So many people I’ve talked to watched the movie when they were young, and now, of course, feel intense nostalgia. But for me, I never watched the movie as a kid and only discovered it now. The thing is, this music is so phenomenal, so magical that it feels like I’ve known this music all my life. It’s truly incredible.

One of the most hauntingly beautiful scores I have ever heard.

Trevor Jones is probably one of the most underrated composers of his time. Next to Ennio Morricone.

Ah, the days of competently written filmmusic, and not some ZImmer stuff spewed out on a computer, with boring ostinatos.

A very underrated movie and score. Trevor Jones brings Jim Henson's and Frank Oz's fantasy to life with a score that I constantly find myself humming. Thank you for this post!

Ah…. The eighties… movies with properly trained classical composers writing absolutely wonderful filmmusic. Unlike today’s tendency to have everything sound like Hans Zimmer. (not a classically trained composer)

Oh my god! I grew up on that movie! I would have never have thought it would ever be played live in the 2000's anywhere on Earth!

I would pay my entire life to listen to this live, along with many other gorgeous soundtracks that gives me infinite chills. and I love chills.

I have this soundtrack on vinyl! It is glorious!

This makes me tear up every time I hear it. Beautiful..

What was sundered and undone shall be whole - the two made one

My friend Andres and I just saw the 40th Anniversary of The Dark Crystal by Fathom Events at The Regal Cinema in Morrestown N.J. and No Trailers for other films just This Classic along with the music. Thankyou Fathom Events and Regal Cinema great job. Now we only have to present it in RPX where the sound rocks the seats.

I never get tired of that Love Theme. :)

A MASTERPIECE! I saw this movie when i was a child,i was in love with this movie and the score. Thank you Mr Trevor Jones.

A masterpiece.

Every time I hear those first 50 seconds I get tears. Nostalgia I suppose, but it's stuck with me from the age of 6.

Now I think it's been confirmed that the Gelfling ruins are, in fact, what's left of Stone-in-the-Wood.
