Composer Jérôme Leroy provides for Hallmark's 'An American in Austen' a highly thematic score that emphasizes both romance and comedy, while adhering to the types of instruments that would have been used in early nineteenth-century England. The music, which features multiple themes for the various characters in the film, also features waltz music for the dance scenes, and comedic pieces to underscore the main character's proverbial fish-out-of-water story, momentarily pausing the drama for a laugh.
