5.0 out of 5 stars The one and only!, January 5, 2000

Rik (Berlin) - See all my reviews

This review is from: The Sheltering Sky: Music From The Original Motion Picture Soundtrack (Audio CD)

this Bertolucci movie was really beautiful and so is the soundtrack. It is simply brilliant & in my opinion Sakamoto's very best! A mixture of ancient sounds, slow strings, islamic chants and heartbreaking melodies, just BEAUTIFUL !

Buy it, it's a must! Rik

5.0 out of 5 stars Absolutely Beautiful, November 13, 2005

G. YEO "gyeo" (Singapore) - See all my reviews

This review is from: The Sheltering Sky: Music From The Original Motion Picture Soundtrack (Audio CD)

This is a timeless, haunting soundtrack. One of Sakamoto's best, and thanks to a supporting cast of great music - this is truly a soundscape best heard in totality. Any fans of Sakamoto's work or even those who love movie soundtracks - you absolutely have to get this. Penetrating and atmospheric.

Minda Ann "MindaAnn" (Texas) - See all my reviews

This review is from: The Sheltering Sky: Music From The Original Motion Picture Soundtrack (Audio CD)

Great cd. Ryuichi Sakamoto is an amazing composer. The music towards the end of the cd that is not done by Sakamoto is of no interest to me, but the majority of it is classical and it makes the cd worth having.
