Customer Reviews
Outstanding with or without the film:"A Celtic Symphony..between Mahler...and Copeland"
Take Ireland's #1 group "The Chieftains", throw in Sinead O'Connor's voice and an absolutely first-class orchestra to boot, and you are swept into the deep waters of Loch Ness ,Scotland with strength and great bravado,yet with also simplicity and tenderness.Six time Oscar nominated composer James Newton Howard has composed ascruptiously delicious Celtic-flavoured score sprinkled with the Uilleann Pipes,tin whistle et al of "the Chieftains" and lush strings,bold brass and reed and wind instruments in virtually one continuous Celtic symphony.Each wonderfully harmonious track flows uncut into the next, and the listener is carried to the Highlands.Howard is one of my top five score composers and he excels in backing all of the action required for the Jay Russell film.Even without the film, though, this CD stands quite beautifully on it's own, especially for we Celts or for those who adore our music.Highly recommended film and soundtrack.Howard's other recent soundtrack to I Am Legend and Restoration: Music From The Miramax Motion Picture Soundtrack among others.
Mr. Howard does it again!
Being an admirer of both celtic music and James Newton Howards work, I was really excited about this album. But, my interest was peeked even further when discovered that the Chieftains had collaborated with Howard for this score. And I wasn't dissapointed.
The whole score is made up of melancholy, majesty, jaw-dropping swells of melody and emotion and the beauty of Scotland.
Celtic Music
Very easy to listen to. Evokes the atmosphere of the story, but also stands on its own merits. Just wish there was more of it.
