Standing along side “Jaws,” “Star Wars,” and “Raiders of the Lost Ark” as his greatest works is his “Superman” theme. The music builds and builds towards a sweeping, uplifting burst of horns. The instrumentation seems to actually speak Superman’s name, announcing the hero’s arrival. The swift combination of strings and brass creates a rushing sensation, mimicking the feeling of flight. It’s a fantastic, powerful score, perfectly suiting the character and the movie.
