The original score for the movie "Forrest Gump" was written by Alan Silvestri. There are two main theme songs used throughout the movie - the gentle piano music used in the introductory and final scenes and the triumphant music used in some of the running scenes. The compilation of the main themes of the movie is called "Suite from Forrest Gump" and can be found on "Forrest Gump: Original Motion Picture Score - Music composed and conducted by Alan Silvestri". The piano intro is called "I'm Forrest…Forrest Gump" and the first use of the triumphant theme is called "Run Forrest Run" and was used when Forrest's braces broke apart when he was running.
