Description:

Ennio Morricone is well-known to moviegoers. His soundtracks for The Mission, The Good, the Bad and the Ugly, Once Upon a Time in America, Cinema Paradiso, and others are invariably warmly melodic and superbly suited to the films they grace. They not only add atmosphere; they help tell the story. For this CD Morricone has created new orchestrations for many of his scores, adding a solo cello part for the indefatigable Yo-Yo Ma, whose musical curiosity seems to be endless. Outside the films, these pieces tend to be lovely melodies, mostly pretty sentimental stuff, and, in the best way, gorgeous aural wallpaper. The most moving are the two selections from The Mission, but fans of Morricone's music will find plenty to enjoy here. Ma's playing, as always, is exquisite---warm, deeply felt (given the circumstances), and entirely idiomatic within the context. Perhaps not quite for the classical music lover, but an affectionate reworking of music by an important film composer. --Robert Levine

This collaboration is genius. A beautiful CD compilation you will enjoy and share for many years to come.

5Perfect CombinationJul 28, 2010
Morricone's amazing compositions and Ma's sensitive cello interpretations are the perfect combination. The film scores stand on their own played by an orchestra, but it is Yo Yo Ma's beautiful cello that takes them to the next level.

This is my most favorite CD. I loved the movie, "The Mission" and especially Gabriel's Oboe! I just wish it was longer. The whole CD is wonderful. Such feeling!

5this album deserves 10 starsMay 25, 2010
This is an amazing collection - every single track is beautiful. Very diverse, since these are all from various movies, most of which you would not recognize. Some are lush romantic pieces, and others are driving numbers for western movies. I have given this CD to a number of people and they all love it. One was a teen who said he only liked metallica - and yet he loved this one and bought it for himself. You will not be disappointed on this one.

For the serious classical music listener who wants to hear excellent contemporary music, it is both beautiful and haunting.... I highly recommend it!
