| Professional Review: |
| Ennio Morricone's Academy Award-nominated score captures the conflict between 18th-century Jesuit missionaries trying to convert the native Indians, and the slavers who want to destroy them. In keeping with the serious subject matter and epic scope of Roland Joffé's film, the score is by turns grave, lyrical, and tense. Ever inventive, Morricone mixes liturgical chorales, native drumming, and Spanish-influenced guitars, often in the very same track, to capture the drama of the culture clash. His trademark lyricism also comes through, notably in the beautiful themes for "Gabriel's Oboe" and "The Mission." Not as over-the-top as his well-known spaghetti Western scores, The Mission shows Morricone at his dramatic best. --Heidi MacDonald |

Written on May 12, 2007 Summary: The Mission An excellent sound track from a powerful movie. Ennio Morricone is a very gifted composer and really captured the haunting beauty of the film. Well worth listening to.  Written on March 31, 2007 Summary: Great music Ennio Morricone's soundtrack of The Mission is fabulous. The only reason I gave it 4 stars is because there wasn't more of that fantastic sound in the CD! Truly enchanting. Written on March 21, 2007 Summary: The Mission Gorgeous music. Arrived safely and in a timely fashion. Thanks so much. Written on March 10, 2007 Summary: a little known gem Maestro Morricone's music is unlike that of any other film composer I know of. Yes, he does have his trademark compositional techniques, but his music really does stand alone. I recently sang in a concert with the composer and one of the pieces we sang was "On Earth As It Is In Heaven". Although the chorus in this CD is good I feel a sort of grainy texture and feel as if the chorus is far away. The second chorus group, labeled "voci folk" that sings a rather rhythmically challenging part, is inconsistent in its presence. At times it is clearly heard and at other times it seems very muffled and hidden. Kudos of course to the oboe player. The haunting and very beautiful theme from "Gabriel's Oboe" is absolutely wonderful. If you haven't seen the movie rent it. It's interesting to see how the music fits the scenes. Written on January 9, 2007 Summary: The Mission: Original Soundtrack I am a lover of classical music and often am more interested in good music in a movie than the storyline. This one is superb! I have it programmed into my MP3 player, too. |
