1995 / Decca / 77 mins
Braveheart is a heavily Celtic score that has a very beautiful texture, especially if you have a fondness for bagpipes and flutes. If these things grate on you, it might lessen your enjoyment a bit, but this is nonetheless a gorgeous listen. The music is tragic and powerful, with a beautiful love theme and some really rousing action cues to balance out the softer moments.
