Maurice Jarre - Pope Joan (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack) (2026) [Hi-Res]

The 1972 historical drama directed by Michael Anderson immerses viewers in medieval Europe to recount the legendary story of Joan, a pious and highly educated woman portrayed by Liv Ullmann. To devote her life to theology and scholarly pursuits amidst the rigid societal boundaries of the era, Joan disguises herself as a man. Her intellect, devotion, and theological mastery allow her to steadily rise through the hierarchy of the Catholic Church, ultimately culminating in her election to the papacy as Pope.

The epic scope and dramatic weight of the story are underscored by a soundtrack composed and conducted by three-time Academy Award winner Maurice Jarre. Celebrated for his sweeping symphonic canvases in cinematic epics such as LAWRENCE OF ARABIA and DOCTOR ZHIVAGO, the French composer crafts a rich orchestral score that balances the historical magnitude and internal spiritual drama of the protagonist.
