5.0 out of 5 stars Music that tells a story, January 23, 2004

By A Customer

This review is from: Avalon (Audio CD)

This is a great movie, and the soundtrack is arguably better. It's some of the most beautiful music I've ever heard. Tough to find it seems. Get it while you can!

This review is from: Avalon (Audio CD)

When this movie first came out, I heard a commercial for it on TV that immediately caught my attention. It was this exquisite piano/flute melody ("Moving Day" on the CD) that grabbed me from what ever I was doing at the time and pulled me in. I later found the soundtrack CD in the budget bin at my local music store and grabbed it. It remains one of my favorite scores to this day. Every track is wonderful. I played "Avalon/Moving Day" again as I wrote this and it still moves me like magic. Do yourself a favor and add this to your collection.

5.0 out of 5 stars It is impossible..., July 17, 2005

It is impossible to not be moved by this soundtrack. I loved the movie, and the music was perfect in its melancholiness, which powerfully reflected the story. Still, the soundtrack is a gem all to its own. Randy Newman continues to amaze.
