Product Description

Amazon.co.uk

Director Ed Zwick's 1994 end-of-the-west film was a conspicuous vehicle for star Brad Pitt and a plodding melodrama that yearned to be an epic. Composer James Horner took his cue from the latter concern, producing bold, memorable music that hearkened back to 1989's "Glory" (also made with Zwick). An underappreciated work by one of the '90s most successful film scorers, Legends' rich melodies may outlive the film itself. --Jerry McCulley

4.0 out of 5 stars As powerful as it is beatiful. 6 Feb 2001
By A Customer
Format:Audio CD
James Horner has written a classic score for "Legends Of The Fall". His sweeping strings and powerful themes create the perfect emotions for each scene in the movie, and as an album , it plays almost perfectly. The highlight of the album has to be track 2, "The Ludlows". Opening with the delicate sound of Horner's piano playing, and then bursting into theme soon after. "Off To War" shows how Horner can create mysterious and enchanting pieces of music without loosing site of the theme he has just created, continuously reminding us of it with short bursts of full orchestra. Even the action cues are listenable (which is no easy feat!) and Horner resists the temptation of using heavy percusion to create mood, and instead relies solely on melody, which, in my opinion works so much better. Horner is often critised for the similarities between his scores,no such problem here, in my opinon, this is his most origial score, and close to being his best and if you are already a James Horner fan, or maybe just a score fan, this album is certainly for you! And if you are neither of these, then this is a perfect first time buy!

5.0 out of 5 stars James Horner At His Best 21 April 2006
By Graham
Format:Audio CD
The is one of the best scores that you will ever hear. James Horner at his best.

The composer of Braveheart, Titanic and many others has composed an album full of lush strings and memerable themes this is an all time favourate soundtrack of mine and if you are a fan of Horners work a must for your collection.

5.0 out of 5 stars Magnificent 29 Sep 2004
Format:Audio CD
This has to be one of James Horner's best scores of the nineties, next to 'Titanic', 'Braveheart' and 'Apollo 13'.
The main themes are both powerful and romantic - something that James Horner is extremely good at.
The tracks 'Legends of the Fall' and 'The Ludlows' are very beautiful and give this soundtrack a brilliant opening. The two war pieces, (tracks 4 and 5) are excellent, especially 'Samuel's Death' which contains some of the best action cues I have ever heard. The following few tracks see the return of the main themes with the introduction of several sub-themes.

James Horner possesses an tremendous style which will be remembered for decades to come and I don't think it is fair that he is picked on for "self-pagiarism" and "ripping himself off", just leave him alone!
