Composer: Mychael Danna
The Life of Pi soundtrack (2012), composed by Mychael Danna, accompanied Ang Lee’s Academy Award–winning adaptation of Yann Martel’s novel. Danna’s score— which earned both the Academy Award and the Golden Globe for Best Original Score— blends Western orchestral textures with Indian instrumentation, reflecting the film’s Pondicherry and Pacific settings. Tracks such as “Pi’s Lullaby” (performed by Bombay Jayashri), “Piscine Molitor Patel”, “First Night, First Day”, and “Tiger Vision” capture the mystical and spiritual atmosphere of Pi Patel’s survival journey with the Bengal tiger Richard Parker.
The score employs sitar, bansuri, tanpura, and tablas alongside lush strings and choirs, creating a sonic world akin to Tan Dun’s Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon and A. R. Rahman’s Slumdog Millionaire. The soundtrack was released on Sony Classical and is often mentioned alongside other great literary-inspired scores like Howard Shore’s The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring, Alexandre Desplat’s The Shape of Water, and Gustavo Santaolalla’s Brokeback Mountain.
