It's the unused score for adaptation of Michael Crichton's novel. Music was composed by Graeme Revell and Lisa Gerrard (from Dead Can Dance). Production of the movie began in August 1997 with John McTiernan as director. However after poor performance at test audiences, producers hire Michael Crichton as new director to make re shoots. In the same time Jerry Goldsmith was hired to compose new music. Score made by Revell and Gerrard was rejected by producers before they even heard it! Eventually movie was completed under title "The 13th Warrior" and wasn't successful.
This score was never officially released. Now you have chance to hear it. Enjoy!
