score
Der Soundtrack includes all the music compiled or composed for a film and can also refer to the album released commercially. Der Score, by contrast, refers to the accompanying music composed specifically for the film. Soundtrack is therefore the appropriate term for a collection of existing songs, while Score is used for an original composition.
