Just noticed a definite similarity between the pre-battle music in Horner's Braveheart to North's 'To Battle' music in The Agony and the Ecstacy (the drums and brass especially). And I thought Horner just ripped off Prokofiev and Shostakovich.

Are you new to James Horner music?
Rip-offs and Plagerisms have been very prominent in his career.

Give me a break... So his music sounds like someone else's sometimes. It's hardly ever intentional.Give it up.

I don't like letting myself be dragged into yet another Horner discussion, but one thing is sure in this case, it's impossible that most of it is unintentional in Horner's case.
