On October 24th, Alan Silvestri’s music will fill the hall of ‘t Kuipke in Gent during the 2015 World Soundtrack Awards. To commemorate the occasion, a special album has been recorded by the Brussels Philharmonic, conducted by Dirk Brosse. The album was crowd-funded earlier this year, and will be for sale during and after the festival. Synchrotones is proud to be a co-funder of this unique recording, which includes music from “The Polar Express”, “MouseHunt”, “The Quick and the Dead”, “Forrest Gump”, “Cast Away”, “The Mummy Returns” and several more.
