After watching the movie, I had to own a copy of the Gladiator Soundtrack. The music on this CD is wonderful and awe inspiring. Several tracks, “The Battle” and the “Barbarian Horde” are exhilarating and will pull you into the battles from the movie. And then you move into the more beautiful, heart-rending music of “The Wheat” and “Elysium.”Both Hans Zimmer and Lisa Gerrard did an excellent job composing and arranging this CD. If you enjoy soundtracks, heartfelt and epic music, then this is a CD for you!
