Roslin Religious Theme

A distinct theme from Roslin's main theme, the Religious Theme appears prominently in the finale during her traumatic fountain scene on Caprica. Elongated and muted contrapuntal string lines build intensity as she packs up presents after learning of her family's death. When she steps into the waterfall, the full orchestra erupts into a huge statement of her theme, with cascading violin and viola phrases representing the falling water.

In "Daybreak, Part II," this theme appears multiple times: as an ethereal voice singing in Latin as Hera runs through the battle-stricken hallways, and during Roslin's visions of the Opera House. Raya Yarbrough creates a "Raya Choir" by overdubbing her voice fifteen times, marking Cavil and his forces as the horsemen of the apocalypse on a biblical scale.
