We shall dive down through black abysses... and in that lair of the Deep Ones we shall dwell amidst wonder and glory forever.

Randy Newman has been known to employ this as well, though it certainly doesn't dominate his works. Pleasantville comes to mind as a stand-out example, which is also an example of his lean towards Americana-style scoring (he's basically New Aaron Copland in that regard).

I feel this is slightly unfair to Copland.

And, I'll say it, and I prepare to be mocked : I god drat love the soundtrack to The Last of the Mohicans. Yes, I know the main theme is trad (heavily modified from The Gael), but it just works so well and ughhhhh... If you haven't heard it, try this : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2pCv7k_Hzvg

Yeah, I am a giant god drat cliche, but I still love it.
