Music from'The Good, The Bad And The Ugly' & 'A Fistful Of Dollars' &'For A Few Dollars More'.......2007-06-13

I grew up with the Spaggetti Westerns and these were my favorite, so when I had a chance to purchase on CD what I had on vinyl I grabbed the chance. The music gives on the sense of power, suspense, and feeling macho of being there and standing down an oppenent.

Has No Pizzaz.......2007-04-12

This is pleasant enough listening, but after hearing the original performances, this is a watered-down version that has none of the haunting, sharp and unique sound that the originals had. I remember this album cover very well when it was first released as an LP record and a lot of copies must have sold. I am not sure why. Just buy the original soundtracks instead of this poor substitute.

NOT the original motion picture soundtrack ........2007-02-22

This is not the original motion picture soundtrack . I felt disappointed , and a little bet insulted when I first listened to this album . the wild cries in the good , the bad and the ugly theme got replaced with flutes , guitars and drums - not the marching band drums but the beach boys drums - are included in all the tracks , and the macho chants muffled .

This is , shall we say the danceable version , the tribute version , the lounge music version , the politically correct version , an elevator music version and to sum it all up , not the original motion picture soundtrack.

It still manages to give the illusion of listening to the original, but that's it .

Should've paid more attention to other customer reviews , not just the ones on the top.I wouldn't have bought it if I new it was a tribute album .

Pick up the originals if you want to relive those wild and fresh scenes from the trilogy.

The City of Prague Philharmonic Orchestra needs a guitar player!.......2006-11-09

Granted, they only need it for one composition (the last one, "The James Bond Theme") but still, without the guitar it's just not the same. Barry didn't compose this one so I suppose it was a bonus and I shouldn't complain, really. The rest of the music on all the CDs is fantastic. Some of the stuff I had heard before without realizing who had composed it. Very enjoyable, to say the least.

Persuaders Theme!.......2006-03-02

Buy it for the Persuaders theme, probably the best TV theme song ever written.

A Variety Of Classics!.......2005-12-06

John Barry has been composing film scores for over forty years and this is only scratching the surface of his productions. Never mind that the entire set is recorded by the Prague Philharmonic; it's pure to Barry's themes. While John Williams compositions ("Star Wars", etc.) are wild and flamboyant and Jerry Goldsmith's (Hoosier's, etc.) are mood pieces, John Barry crosses over all barriers and is amazingly diverse. Barry has recorded most of the exciting James Bond themes, melodramatic classics like "The Lion In Winter' and moody theme hits like "Midnight Cowboy". He also tugs at the heartstrings with compositions from, "Somewhere In Time", "Frances" and "Out Of Africa". He varies his themes for all types of films and few composers capture it so well.

There is over four hours of music in this set with a colorful and informative booklet.

Incredible Barry Collection.......2004-03-11

Any fan of movies will absolutley love this collection. Being a movie buff I couldn't wait to get this boxed set. Knowing Barry from all the James Bond movies, I did not realize his involvement with so many others. The orchestra is magnificent in all these themes. I'm listening to "High Road to China" right now and I'm drifting in the clouds in a Tiger Moth with Tom Selleck and Bess Armstrong. If you are familiar with a movie it will definitely have you seeing it again, if not the scores are still beautiful. Any fan of classical music will be pleased as well. Travellers will defintitely enjoy it for a long drive. I know from when I use to travel that music like this made the miles float by faster. I highly recommend these four CDs even if you just know a handful of the songs.

" one of cinema's greatest composers...John Barry".......2001-07-06

This collection of four compact discs...are worth their weight in GOLD! Barry creates visual moods for each film he scores...romantic, sentimental, action, adventure, suspense and mystery...the list could go on. Strings, brass and lush-velvet arrangements overlay each cue in his distinctive style of legendary scoring...we have ~ "John Barry:The Collection", Silva Screen's release traces 40 years of film music, featuring "The City Of Prague Philarmonic Orchestra" ~ conducted by Mr. Nic Raine (outstanding)..."Crouch End Festival Chorus" ~ David Temple, Choir Master...perform 56 selections, over four hours of symphonic suites with a full orchestra sound...all individually wrapped-up into one neat package...just the way "film-score-buffs" like 'em!

Must ask the following to take a bow ~ James Fitzpatrick (compilation producer), always in their pitching, Reynold da Silva (executive producer), Nic Raine (conductor, arranger, orchestrator & associate producer), a tremen!dous asset to every project he undertakes...and the man who made it all possible...a legendary icon always leading the way in film scoring ~ JOHN BARRY!

Total Time: 258:76 on 56 Tracks ~ SSD-1128 ~ (2001)

Great CD, Horrible Picks..........2006-04-29

This is a great movie with a GREAT soundtrack, and THE ABSOLUTE BEST let me say it again BEST TRACKS ARE LEFT OUT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The Shootout In Stacy's House, the part where Zorin picks up stacy and bond grabs on to the rope and goes for a ride over San Fransisco are just two examples of the great pieces. My advice...WAIT...yes...wait for the RE-REMASTERED version to come out(if they make one which I bet they will). If you are impatient then try to get one REALLY CHEAP.

Good, but missing important parts.......2005-10-21

In "A View to a Kill," Barry is in fine form, including many instances of the exciting themes we associate with 007 movies. To me, the highlight of the movie was tracks where Barry mixes traditional Bond thematic elements with tunes based upon the Duran Duran theme (such as the Wine with Stacy cut). However, the album to me and others is rather disappointing, as it is missing important parts of the score. Others have mentioned Bond's arrival at Zorin's estate, Stacey's arrvial, the Fanfare, and Bond dangling from the Zorin Airship. Personally, I was looking for the music from the State Office Building rooftop scene is my favorite cut from the movie, the main reason I bought the album, but that is also missing from the Soundtrack CD. I imagine if Capitol Records ever comes out with a more complete soundtrack album from this movie, there'd be a high demand for it from fans like myself, but don't hold your breath.

Great album...but it's missing a few pieces.......2005-09-29

A View to a Kill is a great score from the legendary John Barry, who has done pretty much all of the James Bond films up until 1989. I wish he'd come back and do the score to the next James Bond film. A few pieces of music are missing though from the movie, such as when Bond is attacked in Siberia and escapes but they never finish the music. Another piece missing is where Bond and Tibbett arrive at the Zorin's chateau in France. I think the most important piece that's missing is when Stacy gets taken by Zorin for a ride in the blimp and Bond hangs on to the rope going to the Golden Gate Bridge. The music that leads to the climax is always important! The best part of the album is that the music is very much James Bond and incorporates, at the time, a more modern theme to the music. Duran Duran's song is still awesome to this day and can still hold a candle to any crappy song out there today! Overall, a great job well done!

Great entry in the Bond scores...still mssing great tracks.......2003-05-13

While this score is one of Barry's greaat masterpieces, and is now even better remastered, it is still missing crucial tracks, like Bond's arrival at Zorin's estate, Stacey's arrvial, the Fanfare, and Bond dangling from the Zorin Airship. I hope in the near future, the albums will be released again with the missing tracks.

Wonderfully mastered, and one of Barry's Best Bond Scores.......2003-03-10

John Barry has written some of the most beautiful and memorable film music ever composed. He is most noted, however, for his work on the James Bond movies. Other composers have succeeded him, but none have duplicated the magic that he brings to the Bond films. Along with "On Her Majesty's Secret Service," this album is a seminal example of his work; it features some of the most exciting music written for the Bond films. The moment I heard the themes in the movie, I committed myself to finding the soundtrack on CD. I am disappointed that the score is not extended, but the included tracks do very well in representing the overall themes in the film. In addition, the remastered edition makes much better use of the surround channels. The Japanese import focused too much on the center channel. The new mix spreads the orchestra to the left and right, providing the effect of a much fuller sound. The sound is even detailed more. I took a chance and bought this soundtrack a second time in the hopes that the sound quality was improved. It is an understatement to say that I was not disappointed.

Some good Bond themes.......2007-01-10

This is not a good CD for those of you who want the James Bond theme music incorporated a lot. There are some songs which it appears in, like Bond 77, but otherwise, it's just a lot of other 70s music. Too bad, John Barry incorporates good Bond music, but this is not one of the Best Bond soundtracks.

Reviewed by a Bond Collector.......2006-03-15

This soundtrack is perfect for the consumate Bond fan. The cd contains most of the music from the film and is great purchase for anyone who loves the movie. Each track will immediately bring to mind the scene from the movie. I would buy it again.

James Bond and Disco collide with full force!.......2005-06-15

For the most part, I feel that the Bond film scores all sound very similar. This is one that REALLY stands out to me.

1. -Nobody Does It Better- This is by far one of the best Bond songs ever recorded, and we are given the full cut of the song, not the partial cut that I have heard elsewhere.

2. -Bond 77- This is a 4:22 compilation of all the Disco-Bond themes throughout the film. It has great solos, and the Disco beat, though I'm not a big fan of Disco, this is an exciting track that defines Roger Moore's Bond in the film.

3. -Ride To Atlantis- This is a very tranquill and relaxing piece with lots of strings, guitars, and synthesizers. It is beautiful and gives the impression of being underwater.

4. -Mojave Club- This is a very interesting track. It has lots of drums and has an extremely African sound. It can get obnoxious after repeat listenings, but all in all, it is not too long and is worth a listen.

5. -Nobody Does It Beter (Instrumental)- This is, by far, the most beautiful track on the CD. It has beautiful solos by Marvin Hamlisch on piano, Laurence Juber on lead guitar, and Derick Plater.

6. -Anya- Although the track never actually appeared in the film, it is a beautiful serenade that stays appealing even after repeated listening.

7-10. -The Pyramids, Eastern Lights, Conclusion- These tracks are all connected and represent a compilation of the finale music from the film. 7 builds suspense with lots of brass and leads into 8. 8 consists of a disco/funk/African sound that is very neat sounding. 9 is mostly done by strings and a chorus. Over all, these tracks only add up to a total of 7:58.

11. -End Titles- This track consists of parts of tracks 1 and 5.

All in all, this is an incredible soundtrack, though I wish more could have been included. But as this was first released on a vinyl LP, the 36 minute total running time makes sense. This is an incredible album and the price is perfect. A GREAT BUY!!!

Favorite Soundtrack, Disappointing "Remaster".......2005-03-29

After checking out the new editions of other James Bond soundtracks, I was anxiously awaiting the full "Remastered Version" of THE SPY WHO LOVED ME.
And found myself disappointed.

Where the other soundtracks were not only remastered but filled out to include most of the music (doubling the tracks), SPY's new edition is simply the same exact tracks from the original 1977 album.

I'm giving it three stars because it's one of my favorite 007 soundtracks...but I felt like giving it one since I'd wanted the full treatment similar to what ON HER MAJESTY'S SECRET SERVICE or FOR YOUR EYES ONLY got.

Great music.......2004-10-23

Although there is much music missing on this soundtrack, it is still a great soundtrack to listen to. And yes, you can say that it is "so seventies", but: That's whats fun about this soundtrack.
It has great sounds on it that give you the feeling of the movie. My personal favorite is "Bond 77"
Also the title song, "Nobody does it better" is one of the best title songs in the Bond history.
The soundtrack also includes music that wasn't used in the film. The track "Anya" was never used in the movie, but it has beautiful music that really touches my heart.
If you liked the feeling you got from the movie because of the music, this is a soundtrack for you.
But you have to listen to it yourself and make your own opinion. But I think it has some of the greatest music in the entire Bond series. Nobody does it better ;)

Quantity Over Quality.......2007-01-15

As a musician myself, I know too well that one of the most important ingredients in ANY performance (live or recorded) is passion. The recordings here generally lack the same passion and sheer drama of the originals. Much of the instrumentation has been reduced to a cheezy, thin, plastic synthesized replica. The performances are simply a watered-down lackluster version of the classic originals. If it were not for the sheer volume of tracks compiled here, I would have rated the comp only "one star".

Mediocre.......2006-05-17

The sound quality for this collection isn't much better than the samples offered by Amazon.

One Hundred Greatest TV Themes.......2005-08-06

I have watched almost all the shows that are on these 4 cd's. Many were made before I started watching TV. Most I've seen once or twice before.

Pretty close to original recordings.......2005-07-24

Definitely not as good as the originals. You'll probably notice the slight differences since it's stuff you saw and listened to every week or everyday in reruns growing up, but it's still an amazing collection.

Really Good Collection.......2004-07-11

I bought this in part because it had soundtracks to tv shows that are unavailable. My husband and I watch aome British programming. Many of the theme songs are for what seems like obscure British shows. That said; it has been enjoyable to hear music that I would normally never hear. Some music does sound tinny; some are very very rich, and some music is derived from actual preformances from the original artists. I think this is worth buying because is has a wonderful blend of music. The pieces are full soundtracks so they includes the parts of the theme song which are often edited out. I think the orchestra's who preformed the music did a great job. I have MonsterMania which redoes the soundtracks to the Godzilla movies. The interpretation is less heavy and stark than the preformance we associate with the original soundtrack; but I regard it as a new way to appreciate the music and all the componets which make the song unique.

Scaling the Cliff (Bond theme) (0:21)

The album track "St. Cyril's Monastery" could be completed by incorporating the "Bond theme" music and the track "The Climb" within it.

An Exciting James Bond Soundtrack.......2005-10-12

This is a good James Bond soundtrack album. Bill Conti's soundtrack of FOR YOUR EYES ONLY is one of the finest James Bond albums issued especially with the extra tracks now included. You can appreciate the work that Bill Conti put into his score. Bill Conti in no way tries to imitate or emulate John Barry's definitive and distinctive sound. Instead Conti gives us a very lively and upbeat score with his own vibrant sound and interpolates the James Bond Theme into his compositions in a somewhat innovative style. This soundtrack is very representative of the exciting score heard in the film. In retrospect this score is one of the best composed for Roger Moore's tenure as James Bond.

Just for Sheena Easton.......2005-06-16

"For your eyes only" is a really nice song.
It brings beautiful memories in my teenage.

SIMPLY FANTASTIC !!!.......2004-03-27

For whatever reason Bill Conti was given the task, of producing the score for "FOR YOUR EYES ONLY" it was a commendable one. In that it gave Mr Conti the coveted opportunity to revive the somewhat lame and waneing sound of mediocre James Bond scores being produced - at that point in time anyway or more specifically the 1970's (excluding "The Spy Who Loved Me" score from that observation), if one is to be honest with one's self. A breath of fresh air was badly needed and by golly, a breath of fresh air was given - and then some.

Quite frankly, this beautiful Bill Conti score in my humble
opinion has more bite than a piranha with a bout of hunger pains.
Bill Conti definitely left his mark on this film indelibly, with his distinctive fusion of Pop/Funk and orchestra. A fresh, modernistic and creative approach that was so sorely needed.
His score hits all the right notes with all the designated scenes that he was requested to compose music for. Superb use of strings, brass, guitars, percussion and everything else!
The Main Title Theme Song is a superb composition and rightly so was nominated for an Academy Award - beautifully sung by the gorgeous Sheena Easton.

This new Digitally remastered with 7 added bonus tracks album is exquisite for a number of reasons, one of them being that it finally completes more or less a work that was left incomplete for 22 years! This updated "FOR YOUR EYES ONLY" soundtrack not only sounds great (in every sense of the word), looks great, but it arguably is GREAT!
I just honestly wish some individual who had a say in the development of this remastered and updated album could have in their wisdom included a 5 or 10 minute interview with Bill Conti himself about the composing of this soundtrack - but alas it was not to be.
Even a word or two from Sheena Easton herself I'm sure would have
been appreciated, but for whatever reason neither of these two scenario's or options came to fruition.

Usually when I review a soundtrack score I like to choose a few highlight's from the soundtrack album, but in this instance I honest'ly can't, purely because they're all soooo good!!! Melodic, Creative, and Essential!

Overall the "FOR YOUR EYES ONLY" score is a pure listening pleasure and is a work that Bill Conti should be very proud of - I know I would be! I'd also hasten to add that this particular score ranks in my 'Top 5' Bond' scores of all time!

BILL CONTIs UNIQUE 007 SCORE IS POWERFUL.......2004-03-12

Bill Conti's score for the James Bond film FOR YOUR EYES ONLY is innovative, vibrant, uplifting and quite controversial. Though the controversy is not quite as great since Eric Serra scored GOLDENEYE, Conti's score remains somewhat counter to what a conventional "Bond" score should sound like. For years we only had Bill Conti's `disco' portions of the score when the soundtrack was only available on LP or cassette. When it was finally issued on Compact Disc additional elements of Conti's score were included. These selections are good and demonstrate Conti's versatility and innovator as a film composer. This soundtrack demonstrates Conti's originality as the music relies on very little inspiration from the `James Bond Theme' or John Barry's prior influences. Yet, Conti seems to have composed a very upbeat and versatile `Bond' sound of his own. Conti's "Gunbarrel" opening included on this CD is powerful and announced that this film was indeed a return to a tougher James Bond. Cont's music for the film's numerous underwater scenes is very effective as are his compositions for Bond's penetration of the villain's mountaintop lair in "Run Them Down / The Climb" making this an impressive James Bond soundtrack.

Great Bond Score (Not As Good As David Arnold... But Really Great).......2007-07-01

Well, I decided to take a risk and purchase this CD, (I couldn't stand not hearing it in it's full package after all the controversy surrounding it.) I will say right now, I am a die hard David Arnold fan, and I don't think much can beat the music he wrote for The World Is Not Enough, Tomorrow Never Dies, Die Another Day, or Casino Royale. That being said, this score is great! Although many tracks are percussive banging and synthesizers, these pounding tracks are seperated by some of the best romantic orchestral love themes I've heard... ever! And hey, Serra is GOOD with the synths, no matter whether you like this score or not, you have to admit the guy can write and play good synth music. Besides the synths, I truly believe this is the closest the Bond music franchise has gotten to John Barry's originals, (but please, buy David Arnold's scores, because I believe that he is hands down the best Bond composer, and always will be.)

noise.......2007-06-28

I found a copy of this at a used bookstore and its just a bunch of electronic noise that is going to cause a headache, DONT waste your money on this. David Arnold's scores are SO MUCH better.

Dark, rich, fascinating, exotic . Thanks Eric Sierra!.......2006-11-15

I really don't understand any less-than-pleased reviews for the Goldeneye Soundtrack. Yes, if you are looking for John Barry's sweeping orchestral themes you WON'T find it here - you can find it on the other dozens of Bond films before Goldeneye. Although there are some very beautiful orchestral arrangements, the orchestral 007 theme is absent. And for good reasons: A) John Barry didn't score this, and B) this is 1995 and the brilliant Eric Sierra scored it. The songs alternate between romantic orchestrals and brooding electronics. The mixture works; it's lush and intoxicating. Sierra has done a terrific job of creating a Bond score with an electronic pallet. He gives you the same mystery, thrills, and eroticism as an old orchestral score would, except with newer, bolder, more interesting sounds. The best examples are "The Goldeneye Overture", which is probably the best track on the album and is both Bond-sounding and unique enough to stand on it's own. A somewhat-remix appears on track 14. "Ladies First" is probably the strongest example of his electro-techno style. It's quirky but fun. "A Little Suprise For You" is another great song. Sierra's willingness to experiment with sounds gives it a unique feel that perfectly exudes the dark unsteady, mysterious landsape of post-cold war Russia. The album ends with an atmosphereic love song with Eric on vocals. It's mushy soft rock, but it's a nice, woozy sedative conclusion to the record.

What isn't as good are the technical details: the remastering should have had tons bonus tracks as the other JB movie scores have had, because there are many, many peices from the film that are missing here (ironically one of them is the orchestral 007 theme from the tank chase).

NOTE: anyone remember the pumped-up 007 theme used for the terrific Goldeneye theatrical trailers? I don't know whether it was Sierra or not, but it's certainly a Goldeneye-era song and is now INCLUDED on the latest Best of Bond compilation as the last track. They should have thrown it on here instead, but alas they didn't.

If you liked the movie, you should like this soundtrack because the music was intertwined with the images: it ebbed and flowed with the rse and fall of tension. If you like some fine electro-techno scoring, you'll also enjoy this. Lastly, Eric Sierra fans will enjoy this perhaps the most. You don't have to see the film to enjoy the soundtrack, either. Though some of the songs are too brief, it's strong enough material that it works fine alone.

AGREED/ A MASTERPIECE....BUT.......2005-11-18

David Arnold's score for Tomorrow Never Dies has some of the most fantastically heroic and dark elements I have ever heard in a Bond score as well as just being a better Bond film from the heroic standpoint. Besides, Bond is not just some ruthless assassin for hire ONLY. He's a suave and cool minded professional with a BIG heart for people and is just trying to keep the world safe from terrorism and have as many beautiful women as possible doing it. Serra's score is , I agree, absolutely OUTSTANDING. Play the N64 game then watch the movie again and you'll really appreciate this synth/ orchestral MASTERPIECE.

Favorite Bond Film.......2007-04-26

Music score was great. Paul McCartney and Wings. Movie well fitted for Roger Moore, a great candidate for this role.
The Solitaire melody is dreamy and romantic and often moody.
"Bond Goes to New York' is sharp yet out-witted. "Live and Let Die", a sacrament to testimony. Too good to pass up.

Finally! The complete Live and Let Die Soundtrack.......2005-09-13

I have only been waiting for this for 22 years! Granted when this was first released on LP (Vinyl record technology, pre cd, pre cassette and during the horror period of 8 track tapes!),
Only so much music could be recorded on a record. This album finally satisfies all of us who wanted all of the music. Sir George Martin does a wonderful variation to the classic 007 theme as well as great action sequences with different variations of the main title and then some original songs. Sir Martin was the first to score for Bond since Barry who had scored all of the previous movies unavailable for this one. The music was a fabulous introduction to the new Bond Roger Moore.
This Album will stand the test of time when good music was being made for the series.

Best Sound Track Ever.......2005-03-20

I just love bond movies and being able to listen to the music from them is just ausome

Live and Let Delight.......2004-08-12

The remastered release of LIVE AND LET DIE is much improved. The previous issue was no different than the track line up on the original 1973 vinyl record -- or eight track tape, depending on your antiquated stereo. Not only does this release include additional superb tracks, some of the original cuts have also been lengthened and more closely correspond the the film soundtrack. George Martin, the Beatles producer, took the helm from John Barry in scoring the eighth James Bond film soundtrack. Though no one has yet equaled Barry's compositions for Bond films, which we have not heard since 1987's THE LIVING DAYLIGHTS, Martin's soundtrack was perfect for launching Roger Moore's first outing as Bond. Let us not forget Paul McCartney's brilliant theme of the same name.

The musical chemistry between McCartney and Martin is obvious as the title theme music is blended throughout the soundtrack. As a matter of trivia the movie producers originally planned to use McCartney's title theme with a female vocalist before the former Beatle showed his mettle as a negotiator. In the end, Paul McCartney and Wings performed the title track. LIVE AND LET DIE also proved to be a hit Apple/Capitol single as well.

There are a couple things missing from the CD. When some of the James Bond soundtracks were re-released a couple years ago they included selected soundbytes and an analog movie trailer. Apparently the remastered LIVE AND LET DIE soundtrack did not rate these extra features.

Oh well, Live and Let Die. In the meantime, live and go buy.

Why weren't these tracks included in the first place?.......2003-04-16

Yes, that is my sentiment....in fact, it seems in all the other re-mastered Bond soundtracks, the best music is left out, and Live and Let Die was no exception.

George Martin took over from John Barry to write the score for Live and Let Die and he more than admirably did the job. First of all, (take note David Anrold), is that he incorporate the theme song into the score even though it wasn't written by him...thus continuing the tradition of Bond music set by John Barry. Second, he wrote another piece for Solitaire which is also used extensively throughout the score. In all, George Martin wrote a score worthy of Barry himself....

Which is what makes the original release such a disappointment because many of the best music was left out. The re-master remedied that and includes virtually the entire score: the music for the pre-title sequence (gun barrel/snakebit), other notables are Bond and Rosie, The Lovers, Bond to New York, and many of the cues for action/chase sequences. There is an alternate cue for San Monique which I think is better than the one on the original release.

Calming beauty.......2007-05-28

Infinite Voice is one of my favorite albums to pop into the player after a long and difficult day at work. Its soothing lightly classical pieces with Koldenhoven's angelic vocals do much to sooth an agitated spirit and sing peace to the soul. Wonderful Darlene! We need more like this.

A beautiful voice.......2007-04-23

A classically trained vocalist with a Master's Degree in music from the Chicago Conservatory College, the golden voiced Darlene Koldenhoven has participated in a number of high profile pop culture products. In the 1980's she appeared on jazz composer Clare Fisher's Brazilian jazz vocal project, Freefall, which was awarded a Grammy in 1986 for Best Jazz Vocal Performance by a Group. In the 90's she appeared in and served as choir director for both Sister Act films, and in 1994 sung with Yanni Live at the Acropolis, a concert film reportedly seen by nearly 500 million people worldwide. She has also sung on recordings with Celine Dion, Barbra Streisand, Pink Floyd, Rod Stewart, David Byrne, and Ramsey Lewis, among others, and has authored a set of musical instruction books and CDs entitled Train Your Voice.

In the late 90's Koldenhoven began writing and producing her own solo recordings, including the adult contemporary Keys to the World, a gospel album called Free to Serve, and the Christmas album Heavenly Peace. This year she's back with an all new recording, entitled Infinite Voice, a collection of classically inspired compositions and new age arrangements of classics. Ms Koldenhoven's 5-ocatve voice is the only one featured on this recording, in some places layered to give a choral effect. Most of the instrumentation is synthetic, though several songs include acoustic instrumental performances from guitar, English Horn, oboe, flue, didgeridoo, and percussion.

Infinite Voice is a delicate and beautiful recording that will appeal to fans of light classical vocals from the voices of equally talented singers such as Filippa Giordano, Hayley Westerna, or Sissel.
