The musical score to "Conan the Barbarian" is truly one of the great
achievements in fantasy/adventure film music. Basil Poledouris, who
composed and conducted the music, brings a tremendous amount of passion
and skill to his task. Equally passionate are the performances by the
Orchestra and Chorus of Santa Cecilia and the Radio Symphony of Rome.
This is big, bold, richly colored music with a lusty, savage vibe.
The film follows the adventures of Conan, a well-muscled warrior played by
Arnold Schwarzeneggar, as he battles his way through a mythic fantasy
landscape. Poledouris brilliantly combines choral voices with a full orchestra to
evoke Conan's world, with all of its beauty and danger. Particularly good is
the percussion that spices many of the best tracks.

As you might expect, there is a lot of chest-pounding, martial-sounding music
on this CD. But there are also passages of sweetness and delicacy. Every
track is excellent, but my particular favorites include the relentlessly pounding
"Anvil of Crom"; the tender, yet joyful "Theology/Civilization"; and the
sensuous second part of "The Kitchen/The Orgy." "Conan the Barbarian" is a
classic of the art of film scoring.

Basil Poledouris is an outstanding composer, and his best works are easily the Conan Soundtracks.
Exceptionally strong, bold music punctuated by moments of beautiful, lyrical work, these CDs aren't
for constant listening, but when you're in the mood, there's nothing better.

I agree with most of the earlier reviewers and am sad at the way the opening was messed up, but
what's really a shame is that this CD is only 33 minutes long, half the length of its predecessor.
What they should do with the Conan CDs is the same thing they did with the Star Wars ones -
- release them with the complete musical background as it was in the film. That would be impressive.

Another thing to note is that while The Barbarian Soundtrack has better music, the tone of the
music in destroyer is more fitting for the themes in the original Conan stories.
