Customer Rating:
Summary: A YoYo Ma must have
Comment: Beautiful music all around. My favorite song on here is track one, "Gabriel's Oboe". If you love the cello, YoYo Ma, or classical music, this is the cd for you. It of course is very calming and peaceful. I hope you enjoy it as much as I have.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Interesting CD
Comment: Beware,the media after a while willl disapper from your cd. The cd has a 1-800 number to call. It is disconnected.I guess Sony produces so many duds it dosen't want to provide service anymore. This Sony CD is high priced junk. After a year all the music has gone poof into nowhere. Just cheap junk.
Customer Rating:
Summary: well rounded surprises
Comment: Now we know who wrote the beautiful music for so many films. AND these arrangements for YoYo Ma highlight his talent and broad capacity to play so many types of music so well.
Bravo!
Customer Rating:
Summary: Just one more "Once Upon a Time" movie to make...
Comment: Listening to the music leaves one hoping someone like Roberto Benigini will make the film biography of Ennio Morricone - the "star" of so many of the films he scored.
Can you imagine "Titanic" with a Morricone score?.......

Editorial Reviews:

Ennio Morricone is well-known to moviegoers. His soundtracks for The Mission, The Good, the Bad and the Ugly, Once Upon a Time in America, Cinema Paradiso, and others are invariably warmly melodic and superbly suited to the films they grace. They not only add atmosphere; they help tell the story. For this CD Morricone has created new orchestrations for many of his scores, adding a solo cello part for the indefatigable Yo-Yo Ma, whose musical curiosity seems to be endless. Outside the films, these pieces tend to be lovely melodies, mostly pretty sentimental stuff, and, in the best way, gorgeous aural wallpaper. The most moving are the two selections from The Mission, but fans of Morricone's music will find plenty to enjoy here. Ma's playing, as always, is exquisite---warm, deeply felt (given the circumstances), and entirely idiomatic within the context. Perhaps not quite for the classical music lover, but an affectionate reworking of music by an important film composer. --Robert Levine
