Recipe for the new Edelman score for "The Ten Commandments": Combine equal parts Gettysburg score, The Prince of Egypt score and the Children of Dune soundtrack. Stir in a generous portion of Zimmer-style action music. Add the usual middle eastern woodwinds and just a dash of the wailing woman effect. Throw in some guitar, piano, and drum tracks just for odd flavor. Serve hot or cold. Though this is a recipe for a new score, it all seems so very familiar... yet is still rather enjoyable for all that.
