Battlestar galactica battle music series#
There are more themes in this series than I could count and there are ones on this album I admittedly don't know. This addition proved to be necessary as McCreary reprised all of the major themes for the series over the course of the episode as well as composed an entirely new theme, first to parallel characters' flashback sequences, and later to become the Earth Theme. However, the soundtrack also contains a second disc, which is the score to the three-hour finale, "Daybreak". Like the three before it, the Season 4 album contains score highlights from both halves of the fourth season, which were split between 20. The soundtrack album for the final season was certainly put together with fans in mind. This score went far beyond the usual role music has in television shows. McCreary's score became so essential to the series that parts of the third and fourth seasons scripts included elements for the score and, I will discuss this further later, even had a hand in the finale. Note that while I am a huge fan of the series, that alone is not guiding my hand in this review. What we were left with by this final season was something akin to the Lord of the Rings trilogy in that rarely was there a moment where a theme of some sort could not be heard. By the end of Season 4, the style and tone remained the same, but what evolved over the span of the four seasons was a cohesive score of epic proportions that continued to build in thematic complexity over the course of the series. Beginning with Richard Gibbs for the mini-series in 2003, the initial approach was a postmodern collection of solo drum cues and a variety of random ethnic instrumentation interspersed with a few rhythmic themes. One of the many elements that made this show so spectacular was the music by Bear McCreary. In March 2009, I watched the conclusion to one of the best science fiction series ever aired on television: the re-imagining of "Battlestar Galactica".
