5 out of 5 stars Absolutely the BEST   June 23, 2003
  11 out of 12 found this review helpful

I'll just repeat what others have said before -- this is absolutely fantastic. I am awed and impressed with the artistry and great care that Varese Sarabande took in collecting and placing all the tracks on this 4 CD set. One track naturally blends into the next; nothing jarring, nothing out of place, and yet the collection is eclectic enough! "Old Timer" composers (long dead Bernard Herrmann, Franz Waxman, Erich Korngold) are allowed to shine alongside contemporary composers like Jerry Goldsmith, Danny Elfman, John Debney, Thomas Newman and many more. All tracks are excellent. All tracks are a delight. pI even felt compelled to order several Georges Delerue CDs after hearing such stirring and achingly gorgeous examples of his work on these CDs. I also felt the urge (it was beyond my control, I'm telling you) to order John Debney's score for "The Replacements". And I have many more film scores on my shopping list, all thanks to this collection. pI am a big film music fan (Goldsmith, Williams, Jarre, Bernstein and several other compsers being favorites -- especially Goldsmith). And this collection of film music shows off their work. But more importantly, it shows off the work of many other composers that I'm aware of and suspected were good, but just hadn't heard enough of...until now. I've been given the opportunity to sample so many wonderful composers' works, thanks to this collection of CDs.pWhat a rare treasure it is. And the price is beyond comprehension! What a deal for FOUR CDs!?! Snatch it up now!


5 out of 5 stars Best Collection of Movie Themes   May 9, 2003
  12 out of 12 found this review helpful

I've never seen a better variety of memorable movie themes all in one collection. This is definitely the place to begin if you are just starting out as a fan/collector of film scores.pEvery major composer is represented here, from John Williams to Danny Elfman, Michael Kamen to Rachel Portman, Randy Newman to Jerry Goldsmith... A stunning collection of themes for a wonderful price.


5 out of 5 stars SCOOP THIS ONE UP...IMMEDIATELY!   April 25, 2003
  6 out of 6 found this review helpful

This is a film music lover's delight: 84 themes/melodies from some of the greatest films in cinematic history. As the owner of twenty-eight albums from the company's catalog, I can attest that Varese-Sarabande is the premier label for contemporary and classic soundtracks.pAnd the price on this one is a definite STEAL!


5 out of 5 stars A great overview of a great record company!   April 23, 2003
  5 out of 5 found this review helpful

I bought this CD as a collector's item. Being a diehard soundtrack collecter, I have most of this material on other CDs. It has music I have never been able to find (noteably: Raggedy Man and Eye Of The Needle) and is a great overview of the history of Varese. The notes and pictures in the booklet are also very nice. I appreciate Varese and what they have done for us film music lovers over the last 25 years (has it been that long?).
