Titanic: Music from the Motion Picture Review
Titanic soundtrack to the film of the same name was composed, orchestrated and conducted by James Horner. The soundtrack was released by Sony Classical on November 18, 1997, became the highest-selling primarily orchestral film score in history. Number one in the United Kingdom, Canada, and Australia, with worldwide sales surpassing 30 million copies.
Horner is noted for frequent use of Celtic musical elements, and the integration of choral and electronic elements in many of his film scores, in certain tracks, Horner made use of a digital choir instead of a real one.
Celine Dion sang the film's signature song "My Heart Will Go On" written by James Horner and Will Jennings, this ballad won four Grammy Awards and reached number-one in more than twenty-five countries.
I'm rating this music CD with 5 stars !
Titanic: Music from the Motion Picture Overview
The 1997 Academy Award winner for Best Dramatic Score, James Horner's Titanic was the first soundtrack to reach the No. 1 slot on the Billboard charts in two decades; it also seemed to rival the Big Mac in sales for the year. And what can we say about Celine Dion's "My Heart Will Go On"; would "ubiquitous" suffice?
Horner's combination of synths, chorale, and orchestra perfectly underscores the action in director James Cameron's 20th-century melodrama. It's a finely honed piece of Hollywood craftsmanship from a composer who has tackled more musically adventuresome projects in his career. FYI: Horner's follow-up to Titanic was the score for a different disaster: Deep Impact. --Jerry McCulley
