The Mission is the soundtrack from the film of the same name (directed by Roland Joffé ), composed, orchestrated, conducted and produced by Ennio Morricone . The work combines liturgical chorales, native drumming, and Spanish-influenced guitars, often in the same track, in an attempt to capture the varying cultures depicted in the film. The main theme, "Falls", remains one of Morricone's most memorable pieces, and has been used in numerous commercials since its original release. The Italian song " Nella Fantasia " ("In My Fantasy") is based on the theme " Gabriel's Oboe " and has been recorded by multiple artists including, Sarah Brightman , Amici Forever , Il Divo , Russell Watson , Hayley Westenra , Jackie Evancho , Katherine Jenkins , Amira Willighagen and Yasuto Tanaka.
