James Horner's Academy Award-winning score for James Cameron's 1997 epic Titanic is among the most celebrated film soundtracks ever recorded. This Music On Vinyl pressing presents the complete 15-track programme across two 180-gram transparent vinyl LPs housed in a heavyweight gatefold sleeve with metallic embossing. The set is accompanied by an 8-page booklet with photographs and liner notes, an XL fold-out poster, and a facsimile of a historical newspaper front page from the period.
The Score
Horner's orchestral score for Titanic spans 15 cues across four sides, charting the voyage from the optimism of "Southampton" and "Leaving Port" through the escalating drama of "Hard To Starboard" and "The Sinking" to the elegy of "A Life So Changed" and "Hymn To The Sea". The score won the 1998 Academy Award for Best Original Score. The final track, "My Heart Will Go On" performed by Céline Dion, won the Academy Award for Best Original Song.
