Editorial Review:

Amazon.co.uk Review:
Too many soundtracks feel interchangeable, and rare are the composers who really capture a movie's core. But Javier Navarrete has succeeded in his Oscar-nominated score for Guillermo del Toro's Pan's Labyrinth, a dark fantasy set in 1944 Spain. The first cue, "Long, Long Time Ago," sets the melancholy tone with piano and voice; the spectral piano pops up several more times, and the theme is more fully developed in "Mercedes Lullaby." But it's the second track, the aptly titled "The Labyrinth," that really gives the listener insight into the movie's tenebrous universe. While Navarrete can certainly do short, intimate pieces dotted with telling arrangements (like the few trumpet notes adding a subtle Spanish flavor to "Rose, Dragon"), he excels on the longer tracks, such as "Not Human," which goes through a succession of moods, each one increasingly scary, without ever going overboard into cheap, demonstrative effects. Navarrete has already had a long career as a film scorer in Spain, and this won't be the last American audiences hear from him. --Elisabeth Vincentelli

- Pan's Labyrinth
A magical soundtrack to a truly magical film.Like all the best scores,the main theme will be buzzing around your head long after you've switched off the cd player.Stunning!

- Beautiful, haunting score which should have received the Oscar.
This is a fantastic score. It's rich and deeply moving, and perfectly suited to the visual styles of the film it was written for. It's a shame the CD, which does have a lot of tracks on it, isn't quite the complete score, but it's not lacking in the way many do. I really think Javier Navarrete should have got the Academy Award in 2007, it's that good.

- A Little Jewel of a Soundtrack (Muy bien!)
I first saw "El Laberinto del Fauno" ("Pan's Labyrinth", if you insist, although director Guillermo Del Toro has pointed out that the Faun in the film is NOT Pan!), in Spanish class at University, and the thing that haunted me most about the film was the music: in particular, the main theme.

Even so, buying the soundtrack to a non-Hollywood film was still unusual for me, but where I live, good film scores are hard to come by and this one just happened to appear in a local CD store, so I bought it, and boy was I glad that I did.

As is explained in the liner notes and in the DVD's special features, Del Toro wanted the main theme to be a simple lullaby melody, reflecting the fairy tale nature of the story. Javier Navarette ... Read More:

- A beautiful score
Javier Navarrete's wonderful and haunting score for 'Pan's Labyrinth' will certainly please fans of the film. The disc itself is well presented with an illustrated booklet with a forward by both del Toro and Navarrete. I would definately reccomend this item. :)

- If you've seen the film..
If you've enjoyed the film you would have no doubt been affected by the soundtrack which is simply lovely. Philip Glass fans will love it, Arvo- Part fans will cringe. Just make sure you're ready for bed before you put it on!
