Composed by John James Powell and Michael John Mollo. Arranged by Kevin Riley. Film/TV. 80 pages. Kevin Riley #478751. Published by Kevin Riley (A0.872307).John Powell returned to DreamWorks Animation to score How to Train Your Dragon, making it his sixth collaboration with the studio, after Antz, The Road to El Dorado, Chicken Run, Shrek, and following his previous score for Kung Fu Panda (all of which he scored with either Harry Gregson-Williams and/or Hans Zimmer). Powell composed an orchestral score, combining bombastic brass with loud percussion and soothing strings, while also using exotic Scottish and Irish tones with instruments like the penny whistle and bagpipes. Additionally, Icelandic singer Jónsi wrote and performed the song "Sticks & Stones" for the film. The score was released by Varèse Sarabande on March 23, 2010. Overall, the score was well received by film score critics. Powell earned his first Academy Award nomination for his work on the film, ultimately losing to Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross for their score for The Social Network.
