Braveheart (soundtrack)

Braveheart is the soundtrack album to the 1995 film Braveheart.

The soundtrack for Braveheart was composed and conducted by James Horner, and performed by the London Symphony Orchestra. It is Horner's second of three collaborations with Mel Gibson as director. The soundtrack, comprising 77 minutes of film score, was noticeably successful; album co-producer Simon Rhodes produced a follow-up soundtrack in 1997 titled More Music from Braveheart. International and French versions of the soundtrack have also been released.
Horner's score includes a melody that appeared again in his 1997 music for Titanic.

Irish band Clannad wrote a theme tune for the film, entitled 'Croí Cróga' (meaning 'braveheart'). However, the track was not used in the soundtrack, but was released by Clannad on the album 'Lore'. The "End Credits" (and possibly some other tracks) owe some of their incredible beauty to Pavane pour une infante défunte by Maurice Ravel.
