Trusty Bell ~Chopin no Yume~ Original Score is the official soundtrack composed by Motoi Sakuraba for Eternal Sonata (originally released as Trusty Bell ~Chopin no Yume~ [Chopin's Dream]). The soundtrack was released on four discs, for a total of 69 tracks of music comprising approximately three hours and 45 minutes. 2 The soundtrack was released on July 25, 2007 by King Records.
The musical track names originate from the game's "Music" feature accessible from the menu, as well as the from the CD liner notes, which generally used more literal translations, and in some cases ones which were grammatically incorrect or which would sound unnecessarily wordy to native speakers of English, i.e. "The posture you do not despise."

Behind the scenes[]
- One of Chopin's Mazurkas (specifically Op. 33, No.4 - Mazurka in B Minor) as well as the Funeral March from Chopin's "Piano Sonata No. 2 in B-flat minor, Op. 35" could be heard by listening to pianos in the game, but these tunes were not included on the soundtrack. Both were added for the PlayStation 3 release and are not available in the Xbox 360 version. (The pianos themselves were present, but did not play these tunes when examined.) Additionally, the tunes "Lament, The Royal Mirror," "Little Dog Waltz," "321 - Summer!" and "321 - Crescendo!" were added for the game's PlayStation 3 release and therefore were not included on this soundtrack, though "321 - Summer!" and "Lament, The Royal Mirror" were featured in one of the tracks of the Trusty Bell ~Chopin no Yume~ Drama CD.
- As with many such soundtracks for Japanese games, this album never saw a U.S. release, though it is available for import from many online retailers.
