Product Description

Amazon.co.uk Review
The screenwriting/directing debut of veteran British stage and screen actor Charles Dance tells of a pair of Cornish spinsters (Judi Dench and Maggie Smith) who discover a charismatic young Polish violin virtuoso castaway (Daniel Bruhl) on the beach below their home. The tale leads inexorably to tender romantic conflicts and a warm concert house finale. Composer Nigel Hess masterfully utilizes his background as Music Director and House Composer for the Royal Shakespeare Company to conjure a score that evokes its quiet, emotional dignity via neo-classical orchestral arrangements that feature real life young virtuoso Joshua Bell on solo violin. Hess' intimate original compositions form a virtually seamless tapestry with the story's requisite classical repertory choices, which range from Massenet and Debussy to Bell's delightful variations on Paganini's "The Carnival of Venice." --Jerry McCulley

5.0 out of 5 stars You Wont Tire of This One, 5 Dec 2004
By A Customer
I was dragged along reluctantly to see Ladies in Lavender and, surprisingly, actually enjoyed it.The acting was excellent and, although it was a tenuous story, it was enjoyable.However, what really overwhelmed me was the musical score.The soundtrack to this film is stunningly beautiful and very moving.I had heard of Joshua Bell, the violinist, but had never heard him playing before.I have very wide taste in music but, even those who don't tend to ever listen to classical music, will love this.It is music that you can listen to over and over again but, be warned, it does tear at the heartstrings!I enjoyed Joshua Bell's playing so much that I am thinking of buying another of his CDs to go along with this one.Do give it a try.You wont be disappointed.

5.0 out of 5 stars Gorgeous!, 19 Aug 2005
By Tealady2000 (Edinburgh) - See all my reviews
(TOP 500 REVIEWER)      
I didn't see Ladies in Lavender at the cinema, but I rented the DVD one rainy afternoon and I loved the music so I was very pleased to see there was a CD of the soundtrack. Joshua Bell is an awesome violinist and he plays the delightfully accessible tunes from the movie absolutely beautifully. You get nearly an hour of music on the CD (it says in the notes that some of the movie themes were specially extended for the soundtrack) and it's all lovely.

5.0 out of 5 stars a heavenly chill out, 30 Jun 2005
I finished watching Ladies in Lavender and immediately ordered this soundtrack. It truly is a lovely CD; full of violin and other string pieces that I can only describe, in a somewhat worn out phrase, as music that transports you. It is beautiful and very relaxing with a good range of known and less well-known tracks. Had a bad day at work? Kids winding you up? too much on the to do list? then this is the CD for you. Alternatively if you're planning a romantic meal it would be the perfect accompaniment, who knows where it might lead...

5.0 out of 5 stars blissful!
I had enjoyed the film but only as a time filler. The music had caught my attention as we have a history of string playing. The cd is now on every ipod we own, blissful!

4.0 out of 5 stars Brilliant, but.....
Some of the most touching music I have ever encountered on a sound track, and most brilliantly performed. But there is one big disappointment. Read more
