 can someone help me with this ? December 2, 2004
2 out of 11 found this review helpful
hi all..i loved the film Master and Commander and i also loved alot of the music in the film..however, when i bought the cd , my first disappointment are the songs they sang around the dinner table...
but more than that...is the musical piece played while they are burying the sailors at sea..and whilst saying "the our Father".
that music is soooo beautiful..yet its not on the cd..its not listed in the credits..there is no mention of it anywhere..and its my favorite music of the film!
can anyone help me with this?
it sounds very baroque.
thanks alot.

I have been listening to this CD regularly since January and have yet to be bored with it. It has a wonderful variety of the powerful, serious and playful. And it gives more complete versions of the music in the film.
Great! July 4, 2004

I really enjoy all the pieces on this CD. When the music is not being played in the movie it still sounds good. The Mozart piece is the best.

When I watched the movie I don't even recall remembering much of the music. Maybe I wasn't paying attention or maybe it wasn't so good that my ears even wanted to pick it up. When I watched the movie a second time I payed more attetion to the score and the result was. The score wasn't all that good. An OK but nothing more.

Many good points have been made by others regarding this soundtrack so I will simply give what I consider to be a most relevant point: it stuck with me. Each time I watch the film I find myself for several days afterwards humming the tunes as I go about my daily routine until it drives me to pop the DVD in once more. I cannot recommend it highly enough both for fans of the film and books alike.
