Lea Salonga, best known as the voice of Jasmine in Aladdin, steals the show here as the title character in Disney's Mulan. The former star of Miss Saigon adds touching elements to the feature, especially on introspective numbers such as "Reflection." Unfortunately, the voice of Donny Osmond, relegated to anthems such as "I'll Make a Man Out of You" doesn't really enhance the story line, a saga set in ancient China. Jerry Goldsmith provides the Far East tinge to the score, almost reminiscent of early Les Baxter. While Mulan is a far cry from the memorable Beauty and the Beast, it is both funny and charming. --Jason Verlinde

It took me ages to get this album but when I did I was not disappointed, it truely is beautiful! From the moment Lea Salonga sings "Reflection" a lump comes to your throat. The musical directors on this film have brought out the true chinese authenticity in the music which the stringed instruments match perfectly. There are of course more up beat songs like "I'll make a man out of you" which takes you through the soldiers training. I did find though that the beginning of "mulan's decision" on the film is just before " haircut" but isn't on the CD. Apart from that if you liked the film buy the soundtrack now and you wont be disappointed by its beautiful music!!

I think that the Mulan soundtrack is one of Disney's best. If you loved the movie, you are sure to love the soundtrack. The songs, as usual, are wonderful. Disney sure knows how to pick the people to write the songs, and of course, who to sing them. Disney never fails to come up with wonderful, creative songs that people of all ages are sure to enjoy. My personal favorite is "I'll Make a Man Out of You," sung by Donny Osmond. He sure knows how to add life to a song. And let's not forget the beautiful voice of Lea Salonga! The scores, too, were absolutely amazing! The traditional Disney music is uniquely blended with Chinese culture. So full of life, some of these scores are sure to move you to tears. For instance, you could feel the shock and the sadness in "The Burned-Out Village." So, if you haven't seen "Mulan," it is a movie you should definitely see. And if you haven't listened to the soundtrack, you are really missing out!

This is NOT the full score of the movie
This was totally my fault for not checking the description better, but I thought this was the full score of thirty five songs. Not so. It has twelve songs. Read more

Mulan Soundtrack
I would have given it 5 stars except the CD was a little dirty (small spots that cleaned off OK). The CD plays just fine. Thanks.

Where's the rest?
This Cd is a quite nice album... but it could have been so much more. Jerry Goldsmith's score, Oscar-nominated, is only there in pieces. Read more

Incomplete - Not what I paid for
I bought this soundtrack specifically for the "Short Hair" segment of the score for Mulan's decision, and I was sorely disappointed when it wasn't on the soundtrack. Read more
