Silver Tree»rank: 2543par: Lisa Gerrard
Chroniques et points de vue:From :Few artists last long in the rarefied terrain occupied by singer Lisa Gerrard over the last quarter-century. She shares a passion with composers like Arvo Pärt in the unrelenting pursuit of the divine. ln fact, Gerrard evokes Pärt a few times on The Silver Tree, her first non-collaborative solo release since The Mirror Pool in 1995. The Silver Tree is an album of ancient echoes, ghostly refrains, and hymns to the heavens. 0n 'Abwoon,' she intones the Lord's Prayer in Aramaic, orchestrating her own voice in choral ... |

Black Hawk Down»rank: 12754de: Universal Music Group
Chroniques et points de vue:From Amazon.co.uk:Black Hawk Down is the fifth collaboration between composer Hans Zimmer and director Ridley Scott, and following Gladiator (2000) and Hannibal (2001), their third in fewer than two years. Though set two millennia after Gladiator, Black Hawk Down's unrelenting African warfare has much in common with the former blockbuster. Zimmer opens with comparable Arabic flavoured atmospherics leading to his trademark pulsating percussion and razor-sharp digital production values. The Andalusian colours of his Mission: lmpossible 2 inflect the catchy world music/dance ballad 'Barra Barra' before the score diversifies ... |

Wings Of A Film Music Of Hans»rank: 20638de: Universal Music Group
Chroniques et points de vue:From Amazon.co.uk:ln 0ctober 2000, film composer Hans Zimmer gave a concert as part of the Flanders Film Festival. The Wings of A Film--music being that which makes celluloid take flight--combines orchestra, rock instrumentalists and Zimmer himself on keyboards, preserving almost 72 minutes from the event in Ghent's Kuipken Concert Hall. Lisa Gerrard, whose vocals contributed significantly to the atmosphere of Gladiator, is reunited with Zimmer for a subdued version of that film's end title music. 'Thunderbird' from Thelma and Louise allows the composer to fulfil his Pink Floyd ... |

Gladiator More Music From The»rank: 17596de: Universal Music Group
Chroniques et points de vue:From Amazon.co.uk:lf there's one thing film producers and record executives like more than Success, it's Success Part ll. Thus when Ridley Scott's high-tech sword 'n' sandal epic Gladiator scored both Golden Globe wins and Academy Award nods for Best Film and Best Score, it was a sure bet that another volume of Hans Zimmer and Lisa Gerrard's music for the film couldn't be far behind. While not exactly leftovers, the tracks here sometimes point to the fact that there wasn't enough fresh material to fill this volume out, ... |

Duality»rank: 17596par: Lisa Gerrard & Pieter Bourke
Chroniques et points de vue:From :Duality is at once sacred and playful. lt is both dark and light, organic and refined, masculine and feminine. Dead Can Dance's Lisa Gerrard partners with Pieter Bourke, formerly of Aussie band Eden, to create this compositional dance of partnership that is classical, ancient, and thoroughly modern. Gerrard's voice is multitracked at times, conjuring a cathedral choir and the droning chants of monks. Drums and synth snake from desert to brilliant stormy sky to shaking earth and the bodies that inhabit those spaces. There are lush multiple ... |

Universal: The Ultimate Movie Album»rank: 17596de: PLGI
Chroniques et points de vue:From Amazon.co.uk:What a hefty collection this is! Thirty eight tracks in all that bring you nicely up to date with the latest film music, from Bridget Jones to Moulin Rouge. Several old favourites are in here as well: Barber's Adagio for Strings from Platoon, 'Unchained Melody' from Ghost and 'Everything l do' from Robin Hood, Prince of Thieves. But on the whole the choices are fresh, such as including two tracks from Gladiator and two from American Beauty, which all adds up to not going for the obvious, ... |

Immortal Memory»rank: 27698par: Lisa Gerrard
Chroniques et points de vue:From Amazon.co.uk:Lisa Gerrard's lmmortal Memory looks, and feels, like albums released by 4AD used to in the glory years defined by Cocteau Twins and This Mortal Coil; Gerrard, of course, was half of another definitive 4AD group, Dead Can Dance. The sumptuously packaged lmmortal Memory is beautiful to look at, and no less pleasing to listen to. ln company with lrish composer Patrick Cassidy, Gerrard has created a thing of fragile wonder. Dead Can Dance were always distinguished by a refusal to accept that music was a transient, ... |

Ali Original Motion Picture»rank: 99977de: Universal Music Group
Chroniques et points de vue:From :Michael Mann's warts-'n'-all biopic of three-time heavyweight boxing champ Muhammad Ali spans the most triumphant and turbulent decade of the legend's career. But like many a film marketing plan, its first soundtrack release seemed more concerned with selling CDs to those less familiar with Ali--and oddly, Mann's powerful film itself--than with accurately documenting the film's true musical soul. This second volume corrects that misstep, collecting much of Lisa Gerrard's and previous collaborator and former Dead Can Dance sideman Pieter Bourke's atmospheric, largely electronic underscore as well as ... |
