I was really disappointed when listening to these recordings. I had an old recording of Morricone on a tape, which I love, and thought I was to find the same on this CD. But the interpretations are really different (I agree with one of the previous comments), and are far from carrying the same emotions.
Don't do like me, and listen to the song samples to make sure this is what you want.

"The Mission" score demonstrates Ennio's mastery of dramatic music, characterised by texture, depth, emotion, turmoil, innovative orchestration (even counterpoint), layered with beautiful and original melodies that would make Puccini proud. On the other hand, there was room in the movie for 1 or 2 more original pieces to go with Gabriel's Oboe, Ave Maria Guarani, Brothers, and the River. Nevertheless, the Italian man is a genius.

This CD represents a terrific crosssection of Ennio Morricone's music and is probably the only CD of his you will need to buy. I have been a fan of Ennio Morricone for 25 years and can honestly say that this selection contains some of most haunting and moving music I have ever heard. Ennio Morricone in my opinion ranks alongside the greatest of classical composers.

The Voice, released in May 2001, is Russell Watson's debut album and marks the end of his progression from the pub and club circuit, and the start of his recording career after signing with the Decca label.

The album hit No.1 in the UK Classical charts and reached No.5 in the UK Album Chart. Following its release in the US it also hit the top spot, making history as the first time a British artist has topped both the UK and US Classical Charts, and if that wasn't enough, it was awarded `Album of the Year' and 'Best Selling Classical Album' at the Classical BRIT awards in 2001.

The songs are a mix of classical and popular, with the emphasis on the classics to enable its eligibility for that chart: 60% of the playing ... Read More:

I have never been into classical music, however the TV programs Maestro and Last Choir standing (I know trash TV... sorry) made me realise I did like some classical music. So time to test that theory, and of course this CD fitted the bill perfectly, a bit of everything and 99% you will probably know. Good album, maybe I may have discovered culture :-)

My knowledge of classical music is not so advanced, but it is a breed of music you must learn to appreciate if you get what I mean. I am to keen to expand my knowledge of classical music, so buying this album is a great starting point. Classical music is a breed of music which existed long time ago and is really old fashioned, but a real pleasure to listen to. It is very much instrumental orientated. You can hear the piano, violin or the flute with their distinctive sounds in the background.

The Most Relaxing Classical Music in the World is an excellent album featuring and honouring the talents of all the major acts to embrace their names in classical music combined in four CDs. Remember The Four Seasons, Fantasia, Concerto For Two Mandolins ... Read More:

I have grown up listening to Morricone's music, and I have always found it intensely moving, from the spaghetti western to the maybe less well known - outside Italy anyway - but equally epic scores for "Moses", "Secret of the Sahara" and "Marco Polo". Combine it with Yo-Yo Ma's exquisite cello and you have a recipe for moving me to tears.
Truly divine music from two masters of their art.

These two discs contain three complete, original recordings by this unique composer, who along with Schifrin changed the sound of film music. His music for many great Sergio Leone westerns announced a new direction for the evolution of the soundtrack, with the sort of creative and often startling use of instrumentation so well exhibited on this collection.

The first cd presents the music from the first two 'Dollars' films. The opening theme, not one of his best-known, builds on guitars and an evocative whistled melody with unsettling vocals and rolling percussion, which carries your imagination over a sunscorched desert plain. Full string sounds layer the music, adding depth and musical texture.

10.Classical Chillout from: Virgin TV

Music : Classical Chillout
This CD was given to me as a christmas present, but have only started listening to it recently. The first disc is the best with the chest burstingly beautiful "O mio babbino caro", but the second disk is heaving with relaxing hits. It really does do what it say's on the tin, the most relaxing CD on the market, the second being "Pure peace". I can only advise you to buy it now, if I am wrong you can resell it on amazon for almost it's purchase price and I am sure there will be many takers.
