5.0 out of 5 stars BEAUTIFUL, July 15, 2002

By A Customer

This review is from: Mulan: An Original Walt Disney Records Soundtrack (Audio CD)

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!!

5.0 out of 5 stars The music on this soundtrack is absolutely gorgeous!, July 7, 1998

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!
