Editorial Reviews
Amazon.com
In this tale of a Special Forces officer pursuing one of his trainees running amok in the civilian world, William Friedkin tackles Hollywood's one-on-one chase genre with typical skill and style. But given the film's scope and built-in expectations, budding young composer Brian Tyler (The Children of Dune, Darkness Falls) was given the task of forging a near wall-to-wall soundscape of musical tension and suspense, a job that's produced veritable reams of McAction music cues in recent years. Tyler doesn't so much reinvent those cliches in his powerful, rhythmically charged work here as infuse them with some welcome new musical curiosity and intriguing flashes of orchestral color. One can sense the composer pushing his thematic constraints throughout; even his uses of electronic coloration have a fresh, edgy quality that further sets his work apart from the norm. If the composer and his co-orchestrators occasionally display their affection for Bernard Herrmann in their tense, timbre-expansive work here, it seems a welcome acceptance of the master's challenge to meet the constraints of genre with determined musical vision. --Jerry McCulley

There are many positive reasons for getting the complete Peer Gynt music, as opposed to just the two suites. In the first place, if you like singing, you get the vocal parts. There's also a lot of really fine and exciting music that's not included in the suites. On the other hand, if dialogue in Norwegian makes you crazy (there isn't really that much of it), you might want to stick with the more traditional excerpts. This performance of the complete score is excitingly detailed, and extremely well played and sung by all the participants. I enjoy hearing the music in both forms, depending on my mood; perhaps you will too. --David Hurwitz

Amazon.com

This 1988 account from Herbert Blomstedt and the San Francisco Symphony is rich and dramatic. Here is a conductor with a real feel for the music, and in his hands Grieg's multimovement score shows its emotional depth. The reading is well paced and brilliantly played, and London's crew provides a high-impact recording, very forward and with excellent detail. --Ted Libbey

A must for Grieg fans.......2001-06-04

Because Grieg is one of my favorite composers, I was delighted to get the complete incidental music to Ibsen's play and not just the standard Suites 1 and 2. Blomstedt and the San Francisco Symphony do a fine job of conveying the many moods of Grieg's masterpiece. Listeners need to be prepared to hear singing and dialogue in Norwegian, but its inclusion gives the performance an operatic feel. For those of you familiar with Suites 1 and 2, give a listen to "Peer Gynt Hunted by the Trolls", a highly dramatic work;then, listen to the solemnity of "Blessed Morn" and "Solveig's Cradle Song". I think this CD will enhance your enjoyment of Peer Gynt all the more.

I fell in love with the voice.......1999-04-28

Not much of a vocal fan (I'm into Bach & Mozort intrumental) I was scanning through the titles of this CD for the well know Mountain King part. It's all good & very professional, but when I heard the voice of Mari-Anne Haeggander in the track Solveigs' Song I was bowled over and very much reconciled with vocal music.

She mix's a perfect technical mastery with a just enough human touch to make it reall. The tiny imperfections when her voice goes up a big interval make it just perfect. Ceclia Bartoli (singing Mozart) was my favorite, but now Mari-Anne is.

I'm now urgently looking for more of her recordings, without luck so far. Pleas help.

Great stuff among the dreck.......2005-06-18

I've never seen the movie, but I've seen the great Japanese taiko group Kodo a number of times. They are amazing, but really should be seen live to be fully appreciated. Nevertheless, there is some fantastic drumming on this disc. It loses stars for the preponderance of terrible, meandering synthesizer bits and the brevity of most of the taiko numbers. An exception to this--and by far the highlight of this recording--is the full-length version of Kodo's signature piece, "Irodori." If you're selective about the tracks you listen to, there is great stuff here.

Excelent Soundtrack, but needs more music.......2001-06-07

Being a Kodo lover for many years, I was glad to see a motion picture director center and develop a story line around these phenomenal performers music. Granted the movie could have been better, but the music is what really made it enjoyable for me personally. My only reservations about the soundtrack was that all of the pieces performed were way to short. With the exceptions of the Main Theme, Ending Theme, and of course the full 9 minutes of Irodori in its entirety (AKA Matsuri). It would have rated much higher in my book, if the rest of the pieces on the soundtrack were filled amply. To me, a song 1 to 3 minutes long performed by Kodo...is...Well...Just not the Kodo I know and adore. If one ever gets the chance, these guys are a must see in the flesh. I doubt anyone would be disappointed.

Favorite soundtrack to a movie.......2000-11-28

I had previously heard of Kodo, but after blindly buying the movie, I HAD to have the music to it separately. It is probably some of the coolest drumming that I've ever heard, and now I am looking into buying more cds from Kodo, and a band called Hiroshima. This music is full of energy! It's great!

Okay, the movie bombed, but this CD has a few gems on it........2000-01-28

I'm not a fan of synthesizers for the most part, and this CD has a few tracks with nothing but. Still, they're bearable. What makes this CD a decent buy are the Kodo tracks - both new and old stuff. "Papa's Palm Wine" is from a previous CD, and is a light, melodic piece that's really quite good and fits amongst the variety on this CD. There's also "Matsuri", which is a rework of "Irodori", from their CD "Irodori". It's very good, and actually clips from that are in the movie (although unfortunately, horribly dubbed.) It's strong, dynamic, and as energetic as Taiko gets. Aside from the opening and closing tracks (both variations on The Hunted's main Taiko piece), there are a few other mentions: "The Battle" is a personal favorite, with three different sections - dissonant, random sounds, then a cycling, looping pattern, then the climax which chugs along like a train - a rhythmical train, that is. It's for the Kodo fan, not everyone. There are other tracks to fill it out, but again, the Taiko tracks are what make it worth a look.

why is nobody mentionign the fact that they left off johnny cash's cover of 'highway 61 revisited'? there's no reason why that song should be unavailable and they just ommited it from the soundtrack but they included 'the man comes around'. it makes no sense.

A thinking person's action score.......2006-06-28

This score is a bit left of center and it is awesome. The music is challenging but it is really satisfying. The complex string and percussion lines are something special to behold. Check it out if you are into modern orchestral music or intense scores.

A different type of action score........2003-09-02

In a time where the market is saturated with too many Media Ventures scores(they are fun to listen to)as well as imitators, it is good to hear something different. Brian's music reminds me of scoring efforts of James Newton Howard and Elliot Goldenthal. Solely because orchaestrator Robert Elhai worked with both of them. If you are too used to the highly stylized synth scores of the aforementioned Media Ventures, what you hear will probably sound underwhelming. However, The Hunted showcases the amazing amount of talent and consistancy that Brian Tyler possesses. It's only half an hour because of union restrictions but it's all you need. Brian's upcoming score to Timeline should be very exciting.

Average at best, hard to get into.......2003-05-07

This CD is OK, but I was expecting a lot more considering the nonstop pace of the movie. I'm a huge fan of this genre, particularly Zimmer, Mancina, Elfman, Horner, and Vangelis. I get a big rush out of the orchestrated movie tracks, especially the action oriented flicks. That's why I was a bit dissapointed with this work by Bryan Tyler.

The presentation (though not Brian Tyler's fault) feels rushed, like they had an intern put the cover insert together as an afterthought. Much more important, however, is what's in the 1's and 0's. It's hard not to compare this album to Hans Zimmer, particularly works like Peacemaker, Backdraft, & The Rock. But, ironically, if that's the case, then "The Hunted" doesn't even compare. It certainly has its moments, notably tracks 2, 4, 7, & 11, but not a lot else to make it stand out. This album has several heart-pumping action spots, with some quieter mystery & tension moments thrown in. All in all, there just isn't enough of it. The songs are all very short, as is the album itself. For me, these quick tracks would end just as I was getting into them, thereby inevitably letting me down too quickly. I think Mr Tyler has some good stuff going, but I'd like to see some extended songs that weave his work into a more fluid soundtrack. Granted, action movies are rarely fluid, so it would take a lot of extra work. Hans Zimmer's music is typically of the epic, powerful orchestrated type, using long sweeping songs based on an established theme of some kind, with a high production value as well. I'm certainly willing to try Brian Tyler's more aggressive yet less technical style, but in this case, it just felt too cold and distant for my tastes. In addition, don't waste your time if all you care about is Johnny Cash (though I do love his music), because this song is available on his most excellent latest CD, American IV: The Man Comes Around.

British composer Benjamin Britten's Ceremony Of Carols is an Advent staple. In Conrad Susa's Carols & Lullabies - Christmas In The Southwest, the work now has an American companion piece. Initially inspired by festive Spanish-language songs that are typically sung in Arizona, the work incorporates traditional material from Catalonia, Puerto Rico, Castile, Andalusia, and Mexico. The lush yet spirited choral settings are splendidly sung by the VocalEssence Singers and underpinned by instrumentation that, like the Britten composition, relies heavily upon the harp. But Susa has also employed a marimba, a type of xylophone often heard in Mexican and South American music, which adds a deliciously subtle ethnic coloration. The balance of the program is devoted to well-known carols in arrangements by modern American composers. The entire album is an unexpected gem that soothes, exalts and pleasures the spirit. If there is any justice, it will become a beloved seasonal staple. --Christina Roden

Album Description

From across the United States have come composers and arrangers whose work contributes to this collection of Christmas music. These are carols from around the world brought together in arrangements that reflect an inherently American diversity and spirit. From Virgil Thomson's camp meeting setting of "The Holly and the Ivy" and Steve Barnett's swing version of "Go Tell It on the Mountain" to Randall Davidson's homespun "Christ Was Born on Christmas Day" and Conrad Susa's magnificent Carols & Lullabies, commissioned from Susa specifically for VocalEssence. Maestro Brunelle has chosen carols—both familiar and unfamiliar—tied to one another by their inventiveness, charm and beauty in one of the year's most exciting new holiday discs.

Diversity in Christmas Traditions.......2005-10-25

It is getting more difficult each Christmas Season to find discs that offer Christmas choral music that is infused with a sense of "rootedness" borne out of time-hewn tradition and at the same time compliments--rather than rehashes--the existing repertoire of age-old Christmas choral music.

This is one of those rare discs that accomplishes this difficult task of offering a different approach to Christmas choral without slipping into the secular/contemporary (which usually strips all meaning and "rootedness" from Christmas). It does so by continuing to mine selections from Christmas traditions; however, the traditions are beyond the historical milieu of Olde Europe.

At least half the selections here hail from Hispanic origins. If I know anything about Hispanic culture (not much, but I live in the American Southwest), it is nothing if not traditional and rooted, yet passionate and alive.

If you are looking for a Christmas disc that can compliment (i.e., blend with but not duplicating) existing Christmas choral traditions, this is a "must-have" disc for your Christmas collection.

To be sure, several of the tracks are from the European Christmas choral traditions. But even these are executed with

A good example of minimalist music in the spirit of late 19th century impressionism with a flavor of modernism. Indeed, Harold Budd's influence on Mr. Fink grew into an interesting expression. I would recommend this CD to be listened in moments of solitude and contemplation. I would also consider it a good source of inspiration in moments when the creative spirit takes over our thoughts. The 9th track performed with Marty Walker creates an ambiance full of mystery and if compared with the rest of the CD has a much deeper sound than the solo pieces. Two Prlds: Wordless is perhaps my favorite of all.
