Doctor Who Gold

[Gorn Captain]

I am talking about Murray Gold, of course, the composer.
I bought several of his soundtracks, and they are amazing. This guy is so talented. I liked the music in the episodes, but it really stands out when listened to on CD. It has every possible genre of music, and they are some of the best soundtracks in my collection. Disc 2 of season 7 is just fantastic, and each disc has like 35 tracks on it, you get a lot for your buck. All season CDs are double, so you get about 70 tracks in total.

If you also fondly remember the Classic Who music, the 4 disc 50th Anniversary CD is a treat. You get everything, from season 1 story 1 to the finale of the 50th anniversary special.
If you listen to one, I bet you'll get them all the end, very addictive...

My only little complaint about his work is sometimes his scores are over the top with choirs - on Doctor Who.

That is true, and they sometimes use his music so loudly that it's just too much.
Oddly enough, when you listen to the pieces with the choirs on the CD, they are quite moving, just by themselves, and they really work. I'm not that fond of choir music in general, but these seem to be an exception.
