What Customers Say About Panorama: Music from the Movies:

I put it on my computer so that every time I am on -line I can listen to it. It is the most incredible music I have ever listened to. My daughter ( at age 17) bought this CD and played it at home. I instantly fell in love with the music.

The clarinet concerto and the Puccini opera from "Witches of Eastwick" are two of the most beautiful pieces of music ever written. This technicality aside, the music was amazing. The use of the words "from the Movies" in the title of this compilation is misleading. While there are a handful of titles that were great originals from movies (the Star Wars theme, for example), the majority of the music is simply great classical music that happened to show up in a movie.

It is a wonderful appetizer before investing in a full meal. Additionally, I was surprised to discover how many movies themes were excerpts from the classics. This CD includes the name and movement of each selection, as well as the performer. I ordered this CD to get one piece of music only. I didn't begin with this intention, but now I want to hear complete pieces; anticipating a new excitment for many of the composers. The operatic selections are well known pieces performed by 'the great ones' (i.e Placido Domingo). What I received in reality was a compilation of masterpieces to refresh and enliven my very soul. Here you get the best of opera without having to endure what the uneducated would consider tendious.
