  • "Empire of the Sun" is a poem to Nature, based on scientific facts. Stunning stuff! :-D

  • This song captures the infinity of space perfectly

  • I saw the show yesterday and must have look for the score, amazing... BBC documentary always got amazing scoring :3

  • Love this song!!! makes me think about the universe and stars and galaxies its just wonderful !! :)

  • This song is Amaaaaaazing!!! Sends me into a trance every time

  • Most amazing piece of music I've heard since John Murphy's score for the film Sunshine (which Prof Cox had an advisory input on ) called Surface of the sun.It makes you tingle just like this wonderful piece of music but i think this is probably more uplifting. Sheridan Tounge - Genius.

  • @daw3a Thanks, I was trying to find out the name of that movie ,I loved that score also....

  • Simply beautiful music.

  • I love it when genius' works come together...Brian Cox and Sheridan Tongue, does it get much better? Haha

  • Anyone know the name of the tune playing when Brian shows how the Sun looks from the remote dwarf planet Sedna in the "Empire of the Sun" episode?

  • awsome track that sheridan (the iguazu falls) just downloaded it from itunes. well worth the 99p :))

  • If you like this sort of music, check out Mark Ishams "sky dive" composed for the film Pointbreak. Its awsome and inpired me to start surfing and appreciate what life is all about and to live it! Infact there is a movie score of this film with quite a few haunting and inspiring tracks on it. ( not the movie soundtrack)

  • Brilliant music to go with a brilliant series of programmes

  • @MrPto1967 Such as Wonders of the Universe? No thanks.

  • anyone know where i can find the peice of music when brian is talking about the sun about being another star from the darf planet sedna to earth

  • how many songs were released?

  • @ExpoFever A whole album!... :DD

  • It makes me cry everytime i hear it. it's just aw striking......wow....

  • anyone know where i can find the music they used when Brian was talking about rain, to shots of volcanic india, in the episode "dead or alive?"

  • Comment removed

  • does anyone know the name of the music they play during the DVD menu?

    it sounds like Finale - the kingdom

  • @adipuppi I've been wondering that too. -_-

  • i wish we had more music like this

  • "We live in a world of wonders"

  • I love all things astronomy and when such a mind-blowing composer creates music like this and puts it with a wonderful series with a genius of a presenter...well you get something that words can't describe.

  • Amazing, I just watched it last night and fell in love with it.. The series truly show the beauty of everything around us

  • @Alishondra thanx for sending me this soundtrack ;-)

  • Hey everyone, fyi, this song is called "The Iguazu Falls" on the soundtrack.

  • The Universe is truly wonders.

    And we are the greatest wonders of the Universe.

  • @iKH44N Haha, I wouldn't be so sure. There's certainly something else out there, so we're not unique.

  • This is good, does anyone know the piano composition played in the Empire of the Sun episode, would be very greatfull?

  • Hey guys. Sheridan is my uncle. This is my favorite song of his, so I decided to read the comments. When I saw how wonderful they were I sent this link to him. Straight from him he says thank you:)

  • @carbear92 That's brilliant! Now and again a piece of music comes along that creates a mood that is indescribable and really inspires the imagination. This is one of those pieces. He deserves so much recognition for the score to Brian Cox's series as it adds so much. This piece especially is just perfect in its purpose. I'm even considering putting together a small PC-based synthesiser just to see what I can create myself - I'd love to put compositions together for a living.

  • these series that brian cox has done are simply wonderful !

    the wonders of the universe that are on at the moment are just as good or better, than TWOTSS

    it is wonderful to be shown what is happening all around us.

    also at the end of the latest episode FALLING, the song that is done by sheridan tongue, is lovely. does anyone know where i can get it ?

  • looks like just a 100 people complained to the BBC so they now turning down the music....

  • This music coupled with Brian's FANTASTIC presenting skills and enthusiasm for astronomy, just puts hairs on the back of my neck. @PolakZver I completely agree!

    Fantastic developed composition with the best documentary I've ever seen.

  • Thank you for putting these pieces up on the tube! Sheridan's music caught my attention when I first saw WOTSS and I think he's one of the UK's most talented incidental musicians.

    I'm looking forward to this years "Wonders of the Universe." I'm loathe to make comparisons with "Cosmos" but Dr Cox does seem to be on his way to being the UK's Carl Sagan!

    I know some moan because he's an atom smasher rather than an astrophysicist but whilst what he makes is good, we should just sit back and enjoy!

  • this composer is very talented.

    also very good tv series. Brian Cox is the science editor for The Sun newspaper too :D woooo go brian!!!

  • Something about this reminds me of Samskeyti (Untitled 3) by Sigur Ros

  • best documentary that i ever seen

  • Awesome soundtrack!!! - Look forward to it coming out sometime

    

  • Amazing

  • Marvelous :)

  • This is outstanding!

  • Thanks so much! Is there a place to download this?

  • @muftanan Apologies for the late reply, the file is found at the following link on BDI's website

  • I'm looking for the title of music at the end of 4th episode. Can you help me?

  • Amazing music! cheers :)

  • Great piece of music.

  • Thanks dude you made my day :-)
