Beneath The Planet of the Apes Soundtrack - Leonard Rosenman
Rosenman's Beneath the Planet of the Apes soundtrack is as inventive and otherworldly as Goldsmith's original Apes score, yet Rosenman's approach is in its way diametrically opposed to Goldsmith's - composed of vertically-stacked layers of sound, clanging, metallic effects, bristling, rambunctious chase music and a perverse, chaotic march for the ape army.
It's the second musical piece in the Planet of the Apes puzzle, and a fascinating companion piece to both the original Planet of the Apes score and Leonard Rosenman's science fiction and fantasy work.

 Beneath the Planet of the Apes : filmcritic.com Movie Review
Beneath the Planet of the Apes doesn’t just suck; it gives a new meaning to the intolerable hell that sequels always seem to deliver.
Main characters die off one by one, the world gets blown to smithereens (courteous of a suggestion by Heston himself), Nova utters her single memorable line, and then this atrocity is brought to a close by one of the boldest endings ever produced by a studio...
Initially, Twentieth Century Fox was a bit timid about the original production of Planet of the Apes mainly because of trepidation that people would laugh their asses off at the sight of human actors running around with monkey masks on.
