"The Torus" is also the longest track on Rogue Nation, clocking in at 7:02. It's also the perfect opportunity for Joe Kraemer to tie his Ethan Hunt doing the impossible theme back into the soundtrack. Just as with "The A400", "The Torus" is Tom Cruise's next moment to showcase superspy Ethan Hunt's unique abilities.

The usage of the piano brings to mind the television series and works as a great lead-in to More than half way and it does come into its own as Kraemer reminds us that this is Mission: Impossible. Track 8 is one of the most classic and reverential of tracks as it provides a well-developed approach to the classic heist films and plot scenes of genre specific films such as the spy movie. "The Syndicate" remains one of my favorite moments on not just the Rogue Nation soundtrack, but in Mission: Impossible music history. At 3:10, we have what may very well be the highest moment of Kraemer's work on Rogue Nation. At 2:20 seconds into track 7, we get a composition that is very reminiscent of the gorgeous music Jerry Goldsmith created for 1999's The Mummy. The sound Kraemer creates is cohesive with each previous track and provides elegance to the whole soundtrack. This is where Rogue Nation as a score begins forming together. While The Vienna Opera and Turandot sequence remain one of the most talked about in Rogue Nation, it's easy to understand why with track 6. Perhaps the most exciting track since "The A400," Kraemer develops an interesting and fun composition that serves as a particularly nice throwback to Schifrin and easily Bernard Herrmann. Kraemer develops a steady pace with the kind of tension you'd want for a Mission score. The track does build up to the 2:40 mark and does improve. This fourth track is fast and fun with it coming into its own in the last 20 seconds or so.Ĭuban sounding through and through, Kraemer's approach is reminiscent of Giacchino's work on Ghost Protocol, particularly the track "Mumabi's The Word." Blending instruments native to Cuba with the more natural and familiar sounds of Schifrin, the track works but is still not necessarily an establishing moment for the score. While it's not quite an establishing moment for Ilsa Faust, it doesn't seem as if it was designed to be. This track is easily Joe Kraemer leaving his mark and during the closing 30 seconds we get a sinister tone that sets up a recurring theme for the rest of the score.Įscape to Danger provides a svelte and engaging composition that is as energetic as Hunt escaping The Syndicate and the Bone Doctor.
Every composer, from Danny Elfman, Hans Zimmer, to Giacchino has provided their own stamp on the Mission: Impossible series. We also get a sound that harkens back to The A400. The third track provides the biggest taste of the overall theme outside of Schifrin's theme for Rogue Nation. Perhaps the second track for Rogue Nation is the most indicative of the kind of film writer/director Chris McQuarrie has made. There isn't a big fanfare approach to his theme such as we've seen many composers develop for big action movies. The usage of the flute is particularly inspired. More Moriarity than an actual physical threat, the track makes perfect usage of its orchestra and instruments.
More than 2 and a half minutes into it and we understand that Solomon Lane is unlike any other Mission villain. It's elegant and classical and fans of Kraemer's past work, especially Jack Reacher will enjoy this. Kraemer's theme for Rogue Nation's villain (Sean Harris) is a curious and mercurial piece. Similar to Danny Elfman's approach, what makes Kraemer's stand out is how much closer his work is to Schifrin's. With The A400, we are welcomed to the new sound of impossible and reminded just how talented Joe Kraemer is.ĭespite certain flavors of David Arnold's work on the Bond films, with less than two minutes left to the opening track, we get the Mission: Impossible Theme. He provides a new approach to scoring a Mission film and it's refreshing considering listeners have become so used to Giacchino's music over the course of nearly 10 years. Not more than 2 minutes in and we get a taste of "The Plot." Kraemer's track, The A400, is rousing, simple, and positively Joe Kraemer. Composer and conductor Joe Kraemer does not run from the sounds and musical world that Schifrin created. With a hint of the work Michael Giacchino did for Mission: Impossible III and Ghost Protocol, about 40 seconds in and it's already breaking the mold by being the first score for the Mission: Impossible series to use the Lalo Schifrin theme that early.
