Across the Sea of Time is an IMAX-3D film about New York, and how it's changed over the years. In other words, it's just basically a visual-feast, more a documentary than a narrative. A perfect opportunity, then, for the composer to showcase his talents.
The main theme, introduced in the first track and reprised with slight alterations three or four times, is one of the lush themes for which Barry has become particularly renowned in the 1990s.
"The Subway Ride" is a loud, rhythmic action cue that builds on a "people-moving" motif first expressed in "The Automobile, the Telephone, the Skyscraper", and is just perfect for the scene. "Times Square and Broadway" is a piece of low-key blues, centred around one of the secondary themes of the score.
The finest cue is "Flight Over New York".
Across the Sea of Time is just perfect to listen to; beautiful themes, and every single piece is a musical entity into itself.
