Mark Mancina's score for Moana 2 seamlessly blends the epic orchestral tradition of Disney adventure with the authentic, culturally rich music of Polynesia, continuing the musical legacy established in the original 2016 film. The score bolsters the emotional and navigational heart of the film, underscoring Moana’s new voyage across the sea to reconnect with her ancestors and other seafaring peoples. It showcases a plethora of South Pacific instruments such as Pate, Ukelele, Ipu, Pahu, nose flute, traditional Samoan chants and much more to ground the film in a cultural reality.
