    1 out of 5 stars yuck, Yuck, YUCK -- save your money.......2006-09-14

    Mono, thin, narrow band, with poor s/n level. I pulled out the cd and looked to see if it was a cd-r or rw someone had pirated from an old worn out 8 track or using a $1.98 microphone from Radio Shack.

    1 out of 5 stars Mono recording of poor quality, seems pirated........2006-01-10

    I am so sorry about this CD! I love the soundtrack, I love Zorba the Greek and Theodorakis music, but this CD is completely mono. I have a couple of copies of the original vinyl recording. On the original the dialogue is mono and the music is stereo. Despite the cracks and pops on the original vinyl, the overall sound quality is better on my old records and the stereo imaging is wonderful vs. the mono one dimensional quality of this sad excuse for a CD. Amazon should check with the copyright holders, I strongly suspect this is a pirated copy and a poor quality one at that! I would love to buy a true stereo recording. Meanwhile please make the mono recording nature of the CD obvious to buyers.

    5 out of 5 stars Zorba the Greek.......2005-08-15

    This is it! The original soundtrack from THE BEST MOVIE EVER! It is exactly the same as the original, with dialogues of Anthony Quinn (ZORBA) and Alan Bates. Definitely a keeper. I have looked for this item on CD for a long time. When the theme song plays I HAVE to get up and do the circle dance that I grew up doing with my Greek friends in Detroit.
    Would recommend this CD to anyone who is a fan of Zorba the Greek. I think Zorba was Anthony Quinn's finest role.

    1 out of 5 stars Waste of money !!!!!!!!!.......2005-03-31

    I can't believe what I'm hearing!!!
    This is the worst piece of music I've ever heard.
    I've also heard other Theodorakis Cd's and it's the same thing.
    Waste of my money.

    I think I'll stick with my good old Ennio Moricone's Cd's.

    I prefer real music...

    3 out of 5 stars Great Soundtrack with Not-So-Great Sound.......2004-03-02

    The soundtrack is spectacular but the CD left me with two complaints. First, I could do without the dialog introduction to every song. Second, the recording quality is far less than par. Less these issues, I would still recommend Zorba the Greek!

    3 out of 5 stars Eh, It's Okay.......2007-04-24

    For those that purchase soundtrack collages to have a variety of songs and themes, then this is good for you. Unfortunately, these tracks didn't have the signature Erich Kunzel version of the songs as he had on other soundtrack mix CDs. It was more like just that, a mix CD of different soundtracks and scores. However, it was a good buy in the fact that the tracks chosen had excellent sound quality and a sense of harmony.

    5 out of 5 stars Better than the First Volume.......2005-08-04

    There is a great collection of music to be found here. There are many great renditions. The "2001, a Space Odyssey Fanfare" was outstanding. "Book of Days" from "Far and Away" had a very unique approach. I recommend this one deeply, oh yes I do, by far and away!

    5 out of 5 stars An Interesting and Gratifying Volume 2.......2005-06-17

    Erich Kunzel and the Cincinnati Pops' treatment of film scores on this second tribute to Hollywood are somewhat more pleasing than Volume I. The selections are more intriguing and demonstrate a more positive approach to film scores and their value as true musical art forms. There is quite a diverse representation of music here. The incredibly powerful main title to MUTINY ON THE BOUNTY (Bronislaw Kaper) juxtaposed with the bittersweet and romantic love theme to SPARTACUS (Alex North) and the intimately tender love theme to FRIENDLY PERSUASION (Dimitri Tiomkin) are masterfully achieved. I have never been that enamored with this CD's 20-bit digital recording but it has grown on me. Still, I highly recommend and enjoy this CD.

    5 out of 5 stars Sheila from Savannah, Georgia.......2005-01-15

    I love this cd. It is the greatest. Moonglow and Midnight Cowboy are my favorites.

    5 out of 5 stars A great album.......2001-01-28

    Erich Kunzel, once again comes through with another terrific album of movie music. On this album you will find preludes, themes and main title music from some of Hollywood's most loved movies. Films from as early as 1936's "Modern Times", through to 1992's "Far and Away", are represented here. The Cincinnati Pops Orchestra are as wonderful as ever, and the 20-bit digital sound system makes for unequalled sound quality. A pleasing highlight for me, is the wonderful "Moonglow" which starts off track 5. The jazz trio of piano, bass and drums eventually is joined by the orchestra for the theme from "Picnic". Then we have the beautiful waltz from "Around the world in eighty days". With the wonderful accordion solo, you can imagine being on a merry-go-round. This is truly a beautiful album...a must for lovers of orcestral music.

    This is one of the greatest instrumental talents I've heard in years. This cd has some of my all-time favorite movie tunes including 'Moon River', 'Somewhere Over the Rainbow', and a very beautiful version of 'My Heart Will Go On'. This is the actual band that played in the 1997 movie Titanic and I'm truly thankful that they made this recording for everyone to enjoy. I'll cherish it for years to come. Thank you!

    4 out of 5 stars Familiar music with good performance.......1999-10-03

    This CD contains many familiar music from films and the performance of the musicians is very good particularly track 16. I also find the music very relax and enjoyable and can bring the memory of those films if one has ever seen them.

      5 out of 5 stars "Silva Screen releases film culture European style".......2001-11-28

      Believe Silva Screen saved the best for last...the ongoing series comes to an end with "Arthouse Cafe 3"...this time highlighting not just the scores from France, but the entire European community...thus with have "Classic European Film Music" ...some of the best known composers around ~ Enrique Bacalov, Gato Barbieri, Van Den Budenmayer, Klaus Doldinger, Goblin, Maurice Jarre, Gustav Mahler, Ennio Morricone, Zbigniew Preisner, Nino Rota, Ilona Sekacz and Mikis Theodorakis...each composer so different in their approach to the story-line, but always setting the mood for each character to act out his or her part.

      There are several stand outs on this compilation that need mentioning ~ "IL POSTINO"(Bacalov)..."LA DOLCE VITA"(Rota)..."Z"(Theodorakis)..."CINEMA PARADISO"(Morricone)..."PHAEDRA"(Theodorakis)..."ARMARCORD"(Rota)..."THE DOUBLE LIFE OF VERONIQUE"(Van den Budenmayer/Preisner)...and my all-time favorite "ZORBA THE GREEK"(Theodorakis), loved the film with Anthony Quinn, and the music was so inspiring, so earthy and festive, with a hint sadness reflections of daily life, with its ups and downs, will never forget the impact this had on me when I first heard his music.

      Under the watchful eye of James Fitzpatrick(producer), featuring The City Of Prague Philharmonic...conducted by Paul Bateman and Nic Raine...Mark Ayres producing Electronic Music...so my "film-score-buff" friends, this is a keeper, make room for one of the most outstanding collections to come out of the SILVA SCREEN vaults!

      Total Time: 71:01 on 14 Tracks ~ Silva Screen Records STD-5019 ~ (1998)

      4 out of 5 stars arthouse cafe 3.......2000-09-25

      I found this selection of European Film Music harmonically well put together...although I expected to have the themes played a little longer - some are only two to three minutes long - This takes away from the beauty of the melody. Otherwise the combination between the themes in "Il Postino" and "Cinema Paradiso" or "Zorba" combined with "Amarcord" and "Das Boot" makes it a very atractive C.D., offering "the unexpectated".
