Spider-Man 2 Original Motion Picture
Danny Elfman
Release Date: September 27, 2024
In celebration of the 20th anniversary of Spider-Man 2, Sony Classical proudly presents Danny Elfman’s iconic original score on vinyl for the first time.
Conducted by Pete Anthony and performed by the 100+ piece Hollywood Studio Symphony orchestra, this special release features Elfman’s masterful compositions for the second installment of Sam Raimi’s Spider-Man trilogy, starring Tobey Maguire, Kirsten Dunst, James Franco, and Alfred Molina.
As Peter Parker navigates his dual life as a college student and superhero, Elfman’s score delves deep into the characters’ emotions, revisiting and expanding his classic Spider-Man themes while introducing a bold and ominous new motif for Peter’s latest nemesis, Doc Ock.
The album includes two bonus tracks composed and recorded by Elfman but not included in the final film: the action-packed, brass and percussion-led “Train/Appreciation” and the tender, heartfelt “Aunt May Packs,” offering fans a glimpse into Elfman’s original vision.
The album concludes in true superhero fashion with a revisited villain motif on “Green Goblin Returns” and the emotionally charged “At Long Last, Love,” blending cinematic romance with Elfman’s climactic “Farewell” theme from the first film.
The 20th Anniversary release features a soft-touch jacket with UV spot-gloss webbing on the front cover, along with a 12×12 credit insert showcasing photos from the film, making it a nostalgic addition to any Marvel fan’s collection.
