Baraka was composed by Michael Stearns and was released on August 24, 1993, one year after the film opened for public viewing.

Contents

"Milan Records presents this digitally remastered special edition soundtrack to the 1992 cult classic docudrama, BARAKA. Scored by renowned new age composer Michael Stearns, BARAKA takes the listener on a world tour of cultural (and natural) experience. Displaying the cyclical nature of life, BARAKA moves through the mystery and fascination of natural phenomena to the serenity of Third World culture and, ultimately, the ferocity of industrialization. Stearns accents the film's theme with an array of world music influences, new age ambience, and a flair for incidental film scoring."
