I love the film "Emma" so I wanted to own the soundtrack as well. It reminds me of my favorite parts of the film and I find the music very soothing. I do a lot of hand sewing, so it helps keep me focused on my task. The tracks aren't very long, but they all do tie together to make one very nice CD. I wish the CD had come with the original artwork, though...but no matter, I still enjoy this CD!
Rachel Portman writes totally BEAUTIFUL music for movie soundtracks.I recently purchased the CD --Cider House Rules--, also written by Ms. Portman. After listening to it many times, I wanted to buy another movie score by this very gifted lady. I chose Emma, and it is lovely too. The music is soft, flowing and descriptive. Many soundtracks have "hurry music" and "scary music" when the villain appears. There is none of that on either of these CD's. I give this CD an EXCELLENT rating.
Some years ago my daughter and I read Jane Austen's "Emma" together, then fell in love with the movie which we often watch together. I wanted the soundtrack to play at her wedding reception which is in two weeks. When the cd came, I listened to it and loved every bit of it. At the time I happened to be very stressed out with a myriad of frustrations. The cd calmed and relaxed me and gave me the perfect escape. My daughter is going to be so happy to hear this at her reception!
1996 Best score! Find out why Rachel Portman finally got noticed as one of the great composers of our time. A real classical feel to this disc.
I love this album. As it plays I can picture the movie in my mind. The cover artwork is beautiful. Besides all of this it was a great price.
