When I was a kid, Conan the Barbarian was my favorite movie.

A large part of that was the epic soundtrack. There are a number of tracks on it I think would fit here and I’ll eventually post others but this was my favorite.

Favorite parts:

  • 2:13 vocals start
  • Trumpets at 3:24

Basil Poledouris took inspiration from the Carmina Burana by Carl Orff when creating the Conan soundtrack. The CB is epic as well and is worth a listen. Most people are probably already familiar with the opening movement (O Fortuna).

    Yeah, I went searching for different versions as well. The one I liked the most was a remaster of the original that was published by Intrada in 2012 (item number MAF 7123). Unfortunately I haven’t been able to find a streaming version of it yet.
