Edward Zwick is a director notable for bringing out the best in composers with whom he collaborates: his association with James Horner led to the writing of Glory and Legends of the Fall, two of that composer’s finest scores.

Zwick also collaborated with Hans Zimmer on The Last Samurai (an excellent score indeed), and his most recent projects, Blood Diamond and Defiance, have seen James Newton Howard writing two very diverse, but no less magnificent soundtracks. The former featuring heavy African ethnic elements and blistering action cues, the latter showcasing a subdued, elegantly harmonic attitude of reverence and respect, drenched in Slavic-styled melodies.

Themes in Defiance

Several distinctive themes can be found in Defiance. A brooding, ominous theme for deep bass is heard in “Main Titles,” “Make Them Count,” “Police Station,” and (most dramatically) at the outset of “Nothing is Impossible.” A lighter, softer theme for the romance in the story can be found in “Truvia Kisses Lilka” and “The Bielski Brothers,” while a similar (but more optimistic and uplifting) theme graces portions of “Camp Montage” and “The Bielski Brothers.”
