5.0 out of 5 stars More great music from this series on Mark Twain..., September 30, 2009
By Stephen "Civlwrbuf" (Carterville, Il) - See all my reviews
This review is from: National Parks (Audio CD)
Another great Ken Burns soundtrack that will definitely be on my Christmas list this year.

I do have one thing to add. If you heard or liked music from the series and did not find it on this disc, go to his soundtrack on Mark Twain. I know music he used on that film, he used on this one. Especially the tracks: 3. Dogue Creek, 5. Howl 6. Mighty Big River 7. Shadow on the Marsh 8. Poor Wayfar'en Stranger 14. Wagoner's Lad 15. The Falls

I know he used Howl and Shadow on the Marsh a lot and a single track from his Civil War film. He might have used more music but these are the pieces I could recognised off hand.

5.0 out of 5 stars A sound tour through magnificence, July 31, 2009
This review is from: The National Parks - A Film By Ken Burns - Official Soundtrack (MP3 Download)
As a child I was fortunate to travel through some spectacular parts of the country including the Grand Canyon, Yosemite, the Redwoods, and Yellowstone. The sights, sounds, and aromas left lasting impressions, and inspired return trips as an adult. The music on this disc allows me to enjoy those experiences again, through the lens of music. Some was was created by people who lived during the age of western movement and exploration, some more recently. This music, newly recorded, speaks to the importance of these internationally known parks, much as did the photographs of Ansel Adams. Not the same as being there, but an effective way to educate people about these treasures in our midst.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great TV show, even better CD, February 7, 2010
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: National Parks (Audio CD)
An excellent CD--easy listening. We've played it over and over again,
especially for dinner music and never get tired of it. One of the very
best CD's we've ever purchased.
