He was known for his powerful and thematic orchestral style, often incorporating ethnic instruments and choir. Some of his most famous works include Conan the Barbarian (1982), RoboCop (1987), The Hunt for Red October (1990), Free Willy (1993), Starship Troopers (1997), and Les Mis\u00e9rables (1998). He also won an Emmy Award for his score for the miniseries Lonesome Dove (1989), and received four BMI Film Music Awards.<\/p>\n<p>Poledouris had a studio in Venice, California, called &#8220;Blowtorch Flats&#8221;, where he recorded and mixed his music. He married his wife Bobbie in 1969, and they had two daughters, Zo\u00eb and Alexis. His elder daughter, Zo\u00eb Poledouris, is also an actress and film composer, who occasionally collaborated with her father. Poledouris died on November 8, 2006, at the age of 61, after a battle with cancer.<\/p>\n<p>Basil was a composer who left a lasting legacy in the film-music industry. His scores are still widely admired and enjoyed by fans and filmmakers alike. He created memorable themes and emotions that enhanced the stories and characters on screen. He was a master of his craft and a passionate artist who loved music and movies.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;4.21.0&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221;
