The score also features many other prominent themes - closely associated, mysterious themes for both the Ark of the Covenant and the Headpiece of the Staff of Ra, a tender, romantic theme associated with Marion Ravenwood and her relationship with Indy, and low, ominous brass phrases for the Nazi villains, hearkening back to 1940s film scores, among others.

| - The music was composed and conducted by John Williams, and performed by the London Symphony Orchestra. Raiders of the Lost Ark's score is notable for the debut of the rousing and iconic composition "The Raiders March," which came to symbolize Indiana Jones. The score also features many other prominent themes - closely associated, mysterious themes for both the Ark of the Covenant and the Headpiece of the Staff of Ra, a tender, romantic theme associated with Marion Ravenwood and her relationship with Indy, and low, ominous brass phrases for the Nazi villains, hearkening back to 1940s film scores, among others. The score received an Oscar nomination for best original score, but lost to Vangelis's electro-synth based score for Chariots of Fire. Williams composed the march in the two separate segments. When he played them for Steven Spielberg, the director he told Williams that he liked them both, which led to the combined theme people know today. As is Spielberg's custom with Williams' soundtrack releases for his movies, the director wrote brief liner notes for the original album, expressing his appreciation for Williams' efforts; these notes have been retained in the various subsequent editions, frequently alongside additional remarks by contributors to these later editions.
