The Hanging Tree, an album by James Newton Howard, is a haunting and atmospheric collection of songs that perfectly capture the spirit of the film they were created for. The album is a combination of instrumental tracks and songs featuring the vocals of Jennifer Lawrence, who starred in the film The Hunger Games: Mockingjay Part 1.

The opening track, "The Hanging Tree," is a standout song that features Lawrence's vocals and sets the tone for the rest of the album. The song is a haunting and emotional ballad that perfectly captures the film's themes of rebellion and revolution.

Other standout tracks on the album include "Katniss' Nightmare," which is a haunting instrumental piece that perfectly captures the fear and anxiety that the film's protagonist feels throughout the story. "The Rebels Attack" is another standout track that features intense percussion and driving rhythms that perfectly capture the film's action-packed sequences.
