21.Joseph and the Amazing Technicolour Dreamcoat by: Original Cast Recording

Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Music : Joseph and the Amazing Technicolour Dreamcoat

I bought this CD after seeing the show. The CD is fab with great performances all round. I gave this 4 stars instead of 5 as Jason Donovan's vocals as Joseph are often very soft and can't be heard clearly over the music, and the "s"'s seem a bit over done, a tad tad slurry. This may not be a reflection of his performance; it may be a production issue with the CD. Either way, it makes his performance seem a bit dumbed-down compared to the others.

The variation in stlye between tracks, and the the fun element which oozes out of each lyric like drool from a laughing nutter help to make this a musical which can be enjoyed by people of all ages. My two year old daughter loves this on in the car, and I look forward to taking her ... Read More:

This album is absolutely fantastic and you actually feel what is happening in the fairy tale.

The problem is that people do not know that Elena Kats-Chernin composed this music for a ballet "The Wild Swans" and every piece of music relates to something in the fairy tale. Eliza Aria (the music on the Lloyds advert is the piece composed about the Princess) who was turned mute after a spell was cast upon her by her wicked Stepmother.

In a faraway kingdom, there lives a King with his twelve children: eleven princes and one princess. One day, he decides to remarry. He marries a wicked Queen who is actually a witch. Out of spite, the queen turns her eleven stepsons into swans and forces them to fly away. They carry their fifteen ... Read More:

This isn't the first example of Michael Nyman's cinema work I've bought - I fell in love with the score for The Piano, and I bought the soundtrack for Gattaca without every sitting through the whole film. This double CD is a brilliant opportunity to experience a whole raft of soundtracks he's been involved with over the 20-odd years this covers. Some of the individual film soundtracks sadly do not appear to be available, but even a single track as featured here for some films is better than nothing.

The first CD heavily features work from his many collaborations with Peter Greenaway, whilst the second features tracks accompanying a wider range of directors' work, and it's really fascinating to see the evolution of his style over the years. ... Read More:

26.Pride and Prejudice: Original Soundtrack [SOUNDTRACK] from: BBC

The music from the Pride and Prejudice 1995 tv series is good music in its own right. I really love the title theme. However, if you have watched the tv series enough times, then the music is inextricably tied to what is going on in the drama, and this serves to intensify the feelings evoked by the music.

This CD is great to own if you love the TV series, as listening to the CD almost makes you feel like you are watching it again!

It is a way of re-experiencing the emotions of the drama.

I bought this after reading reviews here, and also on discovering one of my fav films "Somewhere In Time" had a CD soundtrack, which is priceless. This CD is good, but there is no magic, no soul, no free passage to another realm, unlike the film sountrack.

I also bought the book by Matheson on the back of the film, and boy is he a weird writer! His style sucks. The director of "Somewhere in Time" read the book and decided he must make a film of it, much to our good fortune.

It really was a question of being in the right place at the right time. A very rare alignment of director (film), J Barry (music) and Matheson (book) but sadly I dont think the magic could ever be repeated.

Still it was fun trying.

Even thought I havent received this yet, the music in the film was the most perfect music i've ever heard! Its weird, it used to be my favourite film when i was a little girl i was obsessed! And 15 years later i watch it again and all of those first time feelings come back. One of the most amazing-est love stories ever written by Tim Burton. The music makes the film perfect. :] Ill always love this film.

Yes, I'll admit to being a fan of John Williams and haven't heard a score yet where he has failed to give something new and not fallen back on his already considerable laurels. This is another and takes you across the ebaches and through the fields of Normandy with the men searching for Pte Ryan. There are no character themes as his his usual method and the the score focuses on the whole, illuminating the tragedy of the story in stirring symphonies and choral tributes.
An excellent soundtrack to an amazing movie and one to take a deserved place in any devotee's collection of movie music.

The film was beautiful, but flawed.
Not so the music.

The recording quality leaves a bit to be desired, but the music more than makes up for it
