Angela's Ashes: Music from the Motion Picture is the soundtrack, on the Sony Classical label, of the 1999 film starring Emily Watson and Robert Carlyle. The original score was composed by John Williams. The record was originally released on December 7, 1999.
The album was nominated for the Academy Award for Best Original Score (where it lost to the score of The Red Violin), and for the Golden Globe Award for Best Original Score (where it lost to the score of The Legend of 1900).
The US edition of the album, from Sony Classical, includes narration from the film, spoken by actor Andrew Bennett, over portions of almost every track. The European edition of the album, from Decca Records, features only Williams's score, without the narration.[3]
