"Thor" composer will score "Brave"

   Patrick Doyle, composer to Thor and Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire will music score Pixar's Brave. Michael Giacchino, a famous Pixar composer was in to score the music for this film, but then gave the job to Doyle since he was Scottish and the film takes place in Scotland, so are the voice actors and characters. Hear is what Doyle had to say- I want to make it accessible but to honor the Celtic traditions if I can. It’s a real fable set in Scotland. I could possibly use the bagpipes as a drone or something that gives atmosphere, but I will resist instantly using them until I see what’s going on … they are extremely loud.
    To be honest I wanted Randy Newman to do this, since all his music is beautiful. He won an Oscar this year from Toy Story 3 in the category Best Original Song.
