Warner Sunset Records have released the latest details for their forthcoming ‘Charlie And The Chocolate Factory: Original Motion Picture Soundtrack’.
‘The highly anticipated soundtrack from Tim Burton's Charlie And The Chocolate Factory, starring Johnny Depp, which opens nationwide on July 15th featuring original music and songs by award winning composer and musician Danny Elfman will be released by Warner Sunset Records on July 12th.
For Charlie And The Chocolate Factory, Elfman's 11th collaboration with director Tim Burton, Elfman has composed the score as well as the original song "Wonka's Welcome Song," (with lyrics written by Elfman and screenwriter John August, and music by Elfman). Elfman has also written the music for 4 other tracks with lyrics based on the lyric chants in the "Charlie and the Chocolate Factory" book by Roald Dahl. Elfman wanted to stay true to Dahl's words in the book, which had a wonderful rhythm to them.
"This is the 11th film I've worked on with my friend and collaborator Danny Elfman," said Burton. "Each time has been different and Danny is always an important character in the telling of the film. He has created yet another fantastic score that successfully reflects the movie."
