1997 Release

Jurassic Park composer John Williams returned to compose The Lost World: Jurassic Park, with the soundtrack being orchestrated by Conrad Pope and John Neufeld, and recorded in Los Angeles. The score was quite different to the original Jurassic Park score, having developed a wildly different style to suit the new location and darker tone.

The soundtrack was released by MCA Records on April 30, 1997. It features over seventy minutes of the film’s music and also included material that was unused in the film’s final cut. A version of the soundtrack exists that, once opened, reveals a diorama featuring the dinosaurs from the film.
