Product Description
Amazon.co.uk Review
Darling of the concert hall, Jarre's Arabia theme is a landscape portrait demonstrating film music at its finest. In tune with the composer's roots, this is actually a score dominated by percussion--something that might surprise listeners expecting nothing more than the one infamous theme. This re-issue of an expanded soundtrack album enlarges upon what was previously available, and makes for sometimes shockingly powerful listening as the predominant sound becomes the pounding of drums. It's a crisp performance, helped by an overseeing eye from the composer. Whether this will remain the definitive presentation is hard to say since, like the concert hall programmers, it's a favourite that folks just love to keep recording. This does, however, come with packaging that takes the eye and is crammed with facts from producer and Jarre fan James Fitzpatrick. --Paul Tonks
