The soundtrack of Avatar: Fire and Ash plays a big role in the film’s emotion and storytelling. The music helps show grief, anger, and hope. It also matches the fire and war theme of the Ash People. Composer Simon Franglen made powerful music using both real instruments and newly created “Pandoran” sounds.

Who Composed the Avatar: Fire and Ash Soundtrack?
The score for Avatar: Fire and Ash is credited to Simon Franglen.
Who is Simon Franglen?
Simon Franglen is a British composer and producer who took over the Avatar franchise after the death of James Horner, having worked as Horner’s synthesist and producer for years — including on Titanic, where he produced My Heart Will Go On. He scored Avatar: The Way of Water and has contributed to The Magnificent Seven and Braveheart.
Why Simon Franglen’s score sounds the way it does
Franglen writes for Pandora rather than for an orchestra: he builds instruments that do not exist, and treats the score as part of the world’s ecology rather than a commentary on it.
How the Avatar: Fire and Ash score was made
Franglen has said the score took seven years to complete. It runs to more than three hours of original music and was realised by over 215 musicians, singers, orchestrators and engineers in Los Angeles, from 1,907 pages of written music. For the film he built two new instruments — one string-based, one percussive — designed to be played by the Na’vi themselves. The album also carries Miley Cyrus’s Dream as One, co-written with Mark Ronson and Andrew Wyatt, and closes with The Future and the Past, sung in Na’vi by Zoe Saldaña. It was released digitally on 5 December 2025 by Hollywood Records, with a vinyl edition following on 30 January 2026.
If this style appeals to you — orchestral-electronic hybrid, world instrumentation, choral — the tracklist below rewards listening in order rather than on shuffle. Scores written this way are built to accumulate, and individual cues can feel slight on their own.
About Avatar: Fire and Ash Soundtrack
- The score is written by Simon Franglen.
- It was released on December 5, 2025, by Hollywood Records.
- It has 37 tracks and runs for over 2 hours.
- It was recorded with a 100-piece orchestra, choirs, and world instruments.
Franglen also designed new “Pandoran” instruments. Some were even 3D-printed to sound like alien tribal tools. The Ash Clan theme uses sharp string sounds based on the Morin Khuur, a Mongolian fiddle.
Only two tracks have vocals:

- “The Future and the Past” – Sung by Zoe Saldaña in Na’vi language. It connects to Na’vi family traditions.
