2. The New Avengers Theme

After the devastating blow of what happens when Thanos clicks his fingers and we see him smirk, the film ends in silence for a while before the theme music kicks in - almost as if to help us spread the emotion of the moment even more.

And then Alan Silvestri debuts a more sombre, sad version of the Avengers theme as if painfully mourning the fallen. It's no surprise that this musical fanfare matches the visuals of the Avengers logo burning away to dust as well. It's a great little touch that crowns an excellent score for Silvestri, which is undoubtedly one of the best in the entire MCU to date.
