Soundtrack

With two months to go before the release of its big-budget film “The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe,” the Walt Disney company wants very much to whet audience appetites by placing music from the soundtrack on radio and music-video channels.

Steven Curtis Chapman will perform at four sneak-peek events promoting the December 9 release of the major motion picture.

Geoffrey Burgon for gave Narniaweb the opportunity to ask him some questions about his Narnia scores. Burgon wrote the music for the BBC productions of The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe, Prince Caspian/The Voyage of the Dawn Treader, and The Silver Chair.

Two months prior to the release of the film, the album, Music Inspired by the Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, The Witch and the Wardrobe, already debuted at #57 o n the Top 100 Sales chart at iTunes.com for the week ending October 1.

On October 2, 2005, a reunion of sorts was held at Disneyland’s Plaza Gardens to help celebrate Disneyland’s 50th Anniversary. And who better to relive that anniversary than some of the Mouseketeers who were there on opening day at Disneyland on July 17, 1955.

Silva Screen Records has announced the release dates of “The Chronicles of Narnia: Music from the BBC Television Series” by composer Geoffrey Burgon. It is released in the UK and other territories on October 10th, and in the US on November 8th. **SPOILERS**

Music Inspired by the Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe is a very unique collection of songs. I have been listening to this album for about a month now, and haven’t heard a compilation like this in a very long time. Not only does each song fit together to bring the stories of Aslan and the Children to light in the many songs, but it also solidifies C.S. Lewis’ intentions for the story.

A who’s who in CCM lineup pays tribute to the long beloved childrens stories penned by C.S. Lewis on the Christian music version of Music Inspired By The Chronicles Of Narnia: The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe. Featuring a diverse roster that delivers what is mostly a unified and fluid tracklist, this collection of songs makes up one of the best original soundtracks — or even compilations — to come around in awhile.
