Civil War Soundtrack
The CD was fantastic. I have wished for it a long time and finally was able to find it. A wonderful listening experience and a masterpiece of composition. Recommend Burns Civil War to anyone with appreciation of Americana at its best. Thanks to Amazon for making it available.
Civil War Soundtrack
What wonderful music. It will take you back to that wonderful series on the Civil War. The Ashokan Farewell has got to be one of the most beautiful and touching songs I have ever heard. When I hear this exquisite music in the background while the letter of Sullivan Ballou is read...it just tears me apart.
Memories
Ashokan Farewell has been a hit in the UK, especially on the radio station I listen to during the day. I remembered the tune, and with the help of your search system found and purchased the music. I do remember the TV production, which in itself was superb, and the very atmospheric music helped it to be, in my view, a classic. Next will be the DVD.
cheers,
TERRY.
