Interstellar
Hans Zimmer · 2014
A functional, architecturally driven score that treats the cathedral as its primary instrument. It lands where space and gravity meet sound — and fails where melody or motion is expected.

A Rainbow in Curved Air
Terry Riley · 1969
A Rainbow in Curved Air is a solo studio construction: keyboard and percussion overdubs on the A-side, saxophone drone and tape manipulation on the B-side. Made in 1968 on one of CBS’s first eight-track recorders. It established repetition, delay, and modal layering as core tools for electronic composition — not as texture, but as architecture.

Aida
Giuseppe Verdi · 1989
A studio recording of Verdi’s Aida, made in 1989. Contains all vocal and orchestral numbers across four acts. Omits Verdi’s rejected overture. No source material describes performers, conductor, recording venue, or engineering choices.

Akhnaten
Philip Glass · 1987
A low, dark opera built by deleting violins — and a Western fantasy dressed as ancient ritual.

Aladdin
Alan Menken · 1992
A technically assured, narratively precise soundtrack built for mass appeal and cinematic utility. It delivers exactly what it promises: songs that advance plot, underscore emotion, and vanish from memory once the credits roll.
