The Mummy (1999 soundtrack)

The soundtrack to the 1999 adventure film The Mummy was composed by Jerry Goldsmith. It features a blend of orchestral scoring with Middle Eastern musical influences, reflecting the film's Egyptian setting and themes. The score is notable for its large-scale arrangements, use of brass and percussion, and incorporation of traditional instruments to create a sense of both ancient mystery and action-adventure excitement. Key themes include motifs for the characters Imhotep, Evelyn, and Rick, as well as recurring musical ideas associated with the Mummy's curse and the film's overall sense of adventure. The soundtrack was released alongside the film's theatrical debut and has been well-received by critics and audiences for its dramatic and atmospheric qualities.
