4.0 out of 5 stars YES!, January 9, 2006

By	J. Forster - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Joel Goldsmith's brilliant score finally comes to CD. An ethereal compilation with gorgeous choir arrangements that cover season one (and esp. the pilot).

The CD of course has the Emmy-nominated opening theme. Which is ever so slightly different from the TV version. Seems slightly more percussive.

5.0 out of 5 stars Joel Goldsmith is the master of the Sci-Fi music genre!, August 9, 2006

By	C. W. Rice "Atlantianwriter" (The Lost City) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I've been a huge fan of "Atlantis" since the show began back in 2004. I was particularly excited when the first strains of "O'Neill Inbound" began during the pilot episode, and the same excitement for the show and it's gorgeous music has continued all the way though the third season. When I first saw that "Stargate: Atlantis" music was being put out on CD, I nearly freaked out. I immediately purchased the CD, and, when it arrived, it was immediately put into my CD player--and my iPod--and it hasn't been removed since! This CD is definitely worth having, putting in your CD player, and pushing "repeat." Joel Goldsmith's talent for music shines through every note, from the soft tones of "Messages," to the Athosian's theme in "Teyla's Village," to the creepy/exciting Wraith themes in "Wraith Abductions," "Wraith Lair," and "Dart Battle." And, of course, the "Main Title" was nominated for an Emmy! This is one of the best CD's on the market in my opinion, and Joel Goldsmith deserves a hundred kudos for another job well done!

5.0 out of 5 stars BEAUTIFUL!!!!, February 4, 2006

By	Pamela Y. Seymore "love all things STARGATE" (Spring Hill, Florida) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This is a totally enjoyable soundtrack album. Joel Goldsmith does a wonderful job and in my opinion ranks right up there close to the master of soundtrack composers- John Williams! You won't be disappointed especially if you are a fan of the show.
