The album, which features 18 tracks, including 'Main Title', 'A Gift Of A Thistle', and 'Freedom / The Execution Bannockburn', is a sweeping and emotive score that transports you to the battle-scarred landscapes of 13th-century Scotland.
With a duration of 1 hour and 17 minutes, Braveheart is a cinematic experience that will leave you breathless. The soundtrack, which was nominated for Best Dramatic Score, is a beautifully crafted accompaniment to the film, which won the Oscar for Best Picture.
