The Oscar goes to ........ John Barry

and he deserves it. This really is no question.
The soundtrack keeps kindly to the sequence of the film, so that Kevin Costner fans can let the film pass in review.
Even those who do not know the film will get their money. The soundtrack promises pure romance. Above all, the background for the love scenes go so gloriously under the skin that you are swimming on a wave of emotions.
Particularly impressive is the beginning and the end of the soundtrack, which pick up all the musical themes and grasp the atmosphere of the film musically together.
Conclusion: music for everyone, no matter what kind of music is preferred. Absolutely brilliant!
