The score is divided into eleven movements, each of which captures the swashbuckling spirit of the film. The first movement, "Fog Bound," sets the tone with its haunting melody and use of strings and woodwinds. The second movement, "The Medallion Calls," introduces the main theme of the film, which is a rousing and adventurous melody played by the brass section. The third movement, "The Black Pearl," is a menacing and ominous piece that captures the danger and mystery of the film's titular ship.

The fifth movement, "Swords Crossed," is a fast-paced and action-packed piece that features a lot of percussion and brass. The sixth movement, "Walk the Plank," is a tense and suspenseful piece that builds to a dramatic climax. The seventh movement, "Barbossa is Hungry," is a playful and quirky piece that captures the eccentricity of the film's villain, Captain Barbossa. The eighth movement, "Blood Ritual," is a dark and foreboding piece that underscores the film's supernatural elements. The ninth movement, "Moonlight Serenade," is a haunting and ethereal piece that captures the film's mystical and otherworldly elements. The tenth movement, "To the Pirates' Cave," is a fast-paced and adventurous piece that captures the excitement of the film's treasure hunt. The final movement, "He's a Pirate," is the film's most iconic piece and features the main theme played in a fast and frenetic style. It has since become one of Zimmer's most recognizable works and has been used in numerous films, television shows, and commercials. Overall, the score for "Pirates of the Caribbean" is a masterful work that captures the spirit of the film and showcases Zimmer's talent for creating memorable and exciting music.
