Notes:
"Alan Williams's vibrant score brings an evocative emotional dimension to Kilimanjaro's story and large-format images.  The aural highlights of his composition gracefully complement the majesty and mystery of Africa's highest point.  His music connects us with the emotions of the trekkers in their quest to reach the fabled 'Snows of Kilimanjaro', and conveys the wonders of the mountain's ecological surprises.  Mr. Williams's inspired, intelligent score is as uplifting and spellbinding as Kilimanjaro's subtle beauty." -David Breashears, director
