Created by the producers of Senna and the Academy Award-winning Amy, MovieScore Media’s latest release is the music for Universal’s documentary feature, Ronaldo. Focusing on the career of the world’s most popular football player, BAFTA winning director Anthony Wonke creates a fascinating portrait of a living legend whose career starts from humble beginnings in Madeira and concludes with the 2014 UEFA Champions League finals where he scored an all-important goal to help his team, Real Madrid to earn its 10th goal. The music for Ronaldo is provided by Austrian-born composer Walter Mair...

Walter Mair delivers an intricate and interesting score for Ronaldo. Those expecting a bland collection of background themes will be pleased to hear that Mair delivers some sweet segments of music that at times can be incredibly moving ('In the Morning' and 'The Funeral' being the most obvious examples).

The album contains 19 tracks (41 min, 35 sec) and while it's far from an essential purchase, there are enough moments to make it worth checking out.
