The excellent use of underscoring and tasteful melodic gestures really help set the mood and feeling of the jungle and the relationships it houses. The more subtle, incidental music in the tracks "Water Truce," "The Rains Return," and "Mowgli's Leaving - Elephant Theme" display Debney's skill as a great composer. This atmosphere is supported with ethnic colors and delicate percussion. After another quick transition, the music calms and presents the Elephant/Jungle Theme' in the track "Wolves - Law of the Jungle." The beginning of the film instills a calm and tranquil setting of the jungle. From the main title arrangement, the music takes a jagged turn toward a modern chase/action sound. This recall on the original theme is a great way to start a film which Walt considered his favorite. Followed promptly after, the music seamlessly transitions into an arrangement of the 1967 main titles by George Bruns. These songs brought back a timeless sound, only adding to the authenticity of the story and Disney's past.īefore the movie begins, the audience is introduced to a new version of the Disney 'Castle Logo Music' which was arranged by Debney. Three reproduced songs were reintroduced from the 1967 animation: "The Bare Necessities", "I Wan'na be like You", and "Trust in Me" (which was only in the closing credits).
Each track is riddled with motifs and themes which reference the score from the original animation film written by George Bruns and songs by the Richard and Robert Sherman. The score Debney composed presents a diverse world of color. This film was packed with beauty, rich colors, and outstanding scenery, which only composer John Debney (and a 104 piece orchestra with choir) could have brought to life. Set in the Indian jungle, it tells the story of Mowglia boy raised by wolves who has to fight the tiger named Shere Khan with the help of Baloo the bear and Bagheera the black panther. The Jungle Book is a classic story originally written by Rudyard Kipling in 1894. Directed by Jon Favreau, The Jungle Book was the first of two live action remakes Disney presented in 2016. With a screenplay by Justin Marks and a star studded cast, there was little room for negative reviews. The Jungle Book went above and beyond impressing critics and movie goers alike.
