This is one of my favourite John Williams cues because it's something different than what John Williams is known for. An operatic voice performing an wonderful yet tragic theme with orchestral counterpoint and Glass-like piano rhythms underneath.

Where Dreams Are Born, which is the end credits development of Monica's Theme, is absolutely gorgeous piece of music from one of my favourite Williams scores, which like this piece is a bit of a deviation in style for him. It is a gentle, almost beatific piece, the voice of Barbara Bonney conveying such warmth and humanity and Williams providing the voice a subtle accompaniment, strings, oboe, harp, piano and cello all gracing the part humming part singing voice with a glowing backdrop, supremely lyrical. I wish Williams could find ways to collaborate with these great vocal talents more since the results are invariably great.

Hmmm, the chorus is great, the bridge decidedly less so. And the song version is downright embarassing.

It's a wonderful piece, but I like more the piano rendition that is heard in The Reunion.

What chorus?

Chorus, chorus, bridge etc. The classic song form.
