A Journey That Has No End...
This soundtrack is absolutely stunning and captivating. From Beloved's Headstone to the final musical score, I was entranced and lost within my own complexities and traveled down roads not taken in years. I could relive each and every moment of the movie as if I were watching it while listening to the CD. A wonderful CD to accompany an excellent movie. LOVE YOUR HEART...MORE THAN THE LUNGS THAT BREATHE LIFE...MORE THAN THE PRIVATES THAT GIVE LIFE...LOVE YOUR HEART.

On my list of top ten soundtracks!!!
The soundtrack to BELOVED is amazing. It makes it onto my list of top ten soundtracks!!! The combonation of vocal talent (Oumou Sangare, The African Children's Choir) and creepy wind instruments, make for a haunting, beautifull soundtrack. It deserves more than five stars.

Great Music
One of the reasons the movie Beloved lingers in your head for such a long time is the amazing score by Rachel Portman. Not only does the music compliment the movie perfectly the score stands alone as a work of art. One of the best peices of music is "Denver Goes Out yonder" this is a breakthrough for the character and the vibrancy of the music brings that out perfectly. The use of flutes and other instruments is extrordinary, as well as the vocals of Oumou Sangare as well as the African Children's choir. This soundtack along with the movie is a must own.
