29. Excerpt from the Random House Audiobook
One of the most over-looked scores in the year that Titanic swept everything. From the beginning, Thomas Newman evokes the mystery and music of glass. Gently and gradually, it becomes a representation of glass pieces that are eventually put together to build the glass church, the highlight of Oscar and Lucinda. Perfectly complementing the strange and unredeemed love story between Oscar and Lucinda, the score narrates the story, laying out the dreams and aspirations of the characters, their despair and hope.
This CD may not readily appeal to everyone. But have a listen to it first before you buy. You never know what beautifully inspiring music you may find.
The recording is airy and atmospheric. The Sony Classical label promises pure unadulterated acoustics. Exquisite in its softer moments and majestic in its swells. A must-have for music fans who appreciate classical type scores for films.
