Brilliant, April 17, 2004
This review is from: Anne of Green Gables (Audio CD)
This has to be one of the best soundtracks to what was essentially a TV show. Everyone knows the story of Anne Shirley (spelt with an 'e') and what happened to her. This is her journey in music. All the best tracks are on here. From the song that's always played over the credits (which always makes me a bit teary), to Gilbert and Diana's music. There are many more slices of music from the film inbetween, some that I can't really identify as being Anne of Green Gables music (there's music from all three here), but there are some tracks that are instantly recognisable. Of course the best track is the first track, simply called "Anne". That's the track that always makes me feel sad, although the last track "Together" is almost similar. "Dolly" and "Diana" include some of the more upbeat tracks, although the rest of the tracks are more slow and extremely peaceful. Good to relax to after a hard day's work. (Ha)

Absolutely Wonderful!, April 2, 2003
This review is from: Anne of Green Gables (Audio CD)
I LOVE this cd, but then again, I am a huge Anne of Green Gables fan. Whether or not you have seen the movies, you WILL enjoy this cd. The music takes you on a wonderful journey..a musical journey back into the work of Anne Shirley. Hagood Hardy captures the essence of Anne in such a way that the music seeps into your soul filling you with warmth and happiness. Buy this cd. You will not be disappointed!

it will put you in the Anne mood, May 2, 2004
This review is from: Anne of Green Gables (Audio CD)
The composer of the Anne score music Hagood Hardy was a Jazz man, but perhaps his best work was these Celtic folk-classical tunes he put together for this movie. This music is so memorable and beautiful, with moments that are light and upbeat, or haunting, or elegant. Hardy died in 1997, but this achievement should be considered a masterpiece. Whenever I listen to it, it really brings the feelings of the movie back in a very big way. Recommended for those soothing nastalgic moments when you want to be alone.
