5.0 out of 5 stars Isn't that the music from...., 30 Nov 2002
By A Customer
I first heard this CD in my friends car one evening. Classical music, not what I listen to normally but with it being music from adverts I thought...what the heck and selected some of the most obvious tracks.
One word: WOW! It doesn't matter if you don't like classical music because there is something on this CD for everyone:
The music when the little boy dived into the ocean to get the pearl
The music from Lord of the Rings
Hall of the Mountain King
The Levi advert, where the people run through the walls
And most importnantly, DUN-DUN-DUN-DUN-DU-DU-DUN THE GUINESS ADVERT!

Buy this CD, I guarantee you will enjoy listening to it as you recognise where you have heard these songs before.

What I also liked about this CD was the fact that on the track listings it shows the advert the song appeared on.

Enjoy....

5.0 out of 5 stars some of the most powerful, beautiful music on 2 discs., 22 Nov 2004
I initially bought this cd set to do a project on T.V. music. But it has become a favouite of mine. Some of the finest pieces of music are contained on these 2 discs. The Guiness advert is a personal favourite as is the Karl Orff tune. The music is so powerful, so inspirational. If you enjoy this sort of music you'll love these cd's, and even if you dont there are still tunes that you can relate to because of their prestige in world music.
