Composer Inon Zur has created the original musical score for the new videogame Pirates of the Caribbean: The Legend of Jack Sparrow. Zur was commissioned by Bethesda Softworks to produce an original score that would reflect the adventure and excitement of the Pirates of the Caribbean in an interactive experience.

Pirates of the Caribbean: The Legend of Jack Sparrow is available for PlayStation2 and the PC. The game features a blend of fast-paced action and adventure that captures the entertaining characters, settings and spirit of the original Pirates of the Caribbean film. Zur composed more than 45 minutes of original orchestral music including the main theme, written specifically for the game, which was recorded with the Northwest Sinfonia orchestra at the Bastyr Chapel in Seattle.
