''Apocalypto: Original Score'' is the soundtrack to the 2006 film of the same name by Mel Gibson. It was released on the Hollywood Records label. == Production == The music is composed by James Horner and features vocals by Pakistani singer Rahat Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan and English musician Terry Edwards. The ''Apocalypto'' soundtrack is Horner's third time collaborating with Gibson. Horner had previously composed the score for Gibson's 1993 ''The Man Without a Face'' and his 1995 epic film ''Braveheart''. Straying away from his repertoire of orchestral music, Horner's mainly improvised ''Apocalypto'' soundtrack makes use of a large array of exotic instruments, such as the Tromba Marina, Swedish bark trumpets and the usage of Ugandan wildebeest horns in addition to synth pads.〔(Apocalypto » James Horner » Cinemusic.net )〕 The soundtrack was recorded at London's Abbey Road Studios over the course of several weeks during the fall of 2006.〔(Apocalypto (James Horner) soundtrack review )〕 Woodwind specialist Tony Hinnigan also contributed to the film score, borrowing numerous instruments from the New Globe Theatre and assembling the music crew. Gibson described Khan’s vocal contribution to the score: “He’s a valuable asset to our soundtrack. His dulcet tones add emotion and drama, and we have a very narrow palette as far as orchestra. We don’t have an orchestra so he is fulfilling a lot of the functions that would usually be supplied by the use of a full orchestra. Just all in one man; he’s a one-man band.”〔http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ov2Wc63kCAI Video diary of recording the Apocalypto score at Abbey Road Studio, October 2006〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Apocalypto (soundtrack)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
