"Best score on TV: Legend of Korra. Clever stylistic mash-ups, great orchestration & luscious melodies. The sound is fantastic too. So artfully done and helps create such a believable world. Congrats Jeremy Zuckerman & Ben Wynn!" — Bear McCreary, composer (Battlestar Galactica, The Walking Dead).[1]

The Legend of Korra has a soundtrack produced by the Track Team, a duo made up of Jeremy Zuckerman and Benjamin Wynn. The soundtrack has been described as "jazz", but as if it were "invented in the 20s by the Chinese". Its tone has been described as being "much more mature" and "much different" from the soundtrack of Avatar: The Last Airbender. The Track Team wanted a more in-depth exploration of instruments and as a result, the music is a little more sparse in the number of instruments playing at once.^[2] The new soundtrack takes advantage of Eastern and Western live instruments, digital sound design, and Chinese instrumentalist Hong Wang, who is proficient in over twenty ethnic instruments.^[3]
