5.0 out of 5 stars Simply superb, 27 Jun 2001

By A Customer

This review is from: Brideshead Revisited (Audio CD)

It is almost impossible to consider this piece of music without thinking of the classic TV series for which it was written. However this, in my opinion, is one of its greatest strengths. Geoffrey Burgon has composed and conducted a truly beautiful soundtrack that reflects the highs and lows of Evelyn Waugh's epic saga of two doomed Oxford undergraduates. The orchestra transports you, at various times, to lazy summer days spent in college quads; Venice in the sunshine; and the thrill of the hunt - as well as evoking the ideas of innocence; love; death and fate.

Even on its own, the score is outstanding and tracks such as 'Brideshead Theme' are timeless, sometimes reminiscent of the overture to Wagner's Tannhauser. Moreover, though most of the music is soothing and soft, there is a variety here that can leave you feeling relaxed one minute and energised the next. The juxtaposition of 'Sebastian's Summer' and 'The Hunt' is a particular example of the way that this CD will surprise and delight you from start to finish.
