Michael Anthony "Mike" Tavera (born September 24, 1961) is an American composer who has worked on numerous movies and TV series. He has thus far done all of the Land Before Time movie sequels, and every musical track for every film, except for the eighth one, where Billy Martin composed additional music for the film. In addition to composing his own original music, he has also re-composed James Horner's score for the original film with different instruments. Some of this re-done score is in fact lost media, and to date, none of the tracks have been officially released.
