The Last Of The Mohicans

"The Last of the Mohicans" is an instrumental piece written in the key of D minor. It originated as the main theme for the 1992 film of the same name, directed by Michael Mann. The music was composed by Trevor Jones and Randy Edelman, and it was performed by various artists, including Dougie MacLean, who contributed additional lyrics to the song. Interestingly, the song incorporates elements of Scottish folk music, despite its connection to Native American culture in the film. The melody is characterized by its haunting and sweeping nature, combining powerful orchestration with a memorable flute motif.
