Amazon.com

Don't expect to find the aural sequel to James Horner's epic score to Titanic on The Mask of Zorro. On Zorro, Horner flavors his orchestrations with flamenco, lets some instruments have their solo turns, and goes for a distinct Latin flavoring on most tracks. In the theater it's a rare treat--the composer bridges the gap between the Zorro of long ago and the prerequisite sweeping orchestrations of today's cinema. A variety of influences--everything from his work on Willow to the frenzied stomping of Michael Flatley--seemingly creep into the work. Unfortunately, the vocals of Marc Anthony and Tina Arena on "I Want to Spend My Lifetime Loving You" (Zorro's equivalent to "My Heart Will Go On") stick out like a sore Anglo thumb amid the rest of this fine score. --Jason Verlinde

Customer Reviews:

Absolutely gorgeous music.......2007-01-10

What fun this CD is! The gorgeous love theme featuring Marc Anthony is absolutely haunting. You'll find yourself humming the melody.

Mask of Zorro.......2006-12-30

Perfectly, wonderfully clichéd, and there's really not much more to say. Full and lovely themes. Yum. You should also hear an early version of a theme from 'Troy', in here.

Another great Horner selection.......2006-08-31

The Mask of Zorro adds another great selection to my James Horner collection of soundtracks. This work captures elements from Braveheart, Willow, Apollo 13, and even touches of Titanic. Plus the underlying theme of "I want to Spend My Lifetime Loving You" is ever present, giving a nice flow and consistency throughout the work. My daughter particularly likes the brilliant use of the dance rhythms throughout, which gives the soundtrack a strong Spanish/Latin flair. Definitely a must-have for Horner fans.

Last song is best.......2006-05-12

I don't care much for the soundtrack, except for the song Marc Anthony and Tina Arena sing together-'I want to spend my lifetime loving you.'
One of the best songs so far. Could listen to it over and over.

As good as the first........2006-03-15

With the sad exception of having killed off Anthony Hopkin's character in the first film, this sequel is every bit as humorous and action packed. I had read the reviews and was a bit concerned, especially about the character of Zorro's son. However, watching the film put aside all my reservations. Bring on a third!

Very stirring Spanish music.......2007-01-10

This CD makes you want to put a rose in your teeth and flamenco dance.

Everything you want it to be.......2006-04-20

I just bought this soundtrack last night after listening to bits of it on iTunes, and it is such a beautiful score. I've seen the film... gosh, I don't keep count anymore, but every time, I always take in the music. And how can you not? James Horner is a wonderful composer, yet the music seems to take on a life of its own.
The opening number gets you right away: the Spanish-style guitar strum, the frenzied tap dance, and the horns. One thing you can definitely credit music to do is build, be it suspense or emotion. The tap dance builds and builds until the guitar takes over.
The second number begins with drums like thunderclaps, violins still keeping the tension. The horns and claps enter, and you have Zorro's theme again. Percussion picks back up around the two-minute mark, and it keeps a nice tempo.
I like to think that this soundtrack is like a Spanish version of Pirates of the Caribbean, another of my favorite films. But the horns always let you know, with special clarity, that this is Zorro.
Whether or not this soundtrack is good is entirely up to the person listening. Then again, if you don't like it, why are you listening in the first place? If you want to hate it, then it's terrible. But if you appreciate all the orchestrations, this soundtrack is a masterpiece. Enjoy.

Excellent sound track.......2006-02-24

The soundtrack for the movie "Legend of Zorro" is far and away greater than the soundtrack for the original movie. It is the perfect piece for putting on in the background while you work or resting your thoughts. There is just the feeling of a fine wine when it's playing. I love the Spainish sound of guitar and orchestration. My office partner finds it wonderful to listen to also. For those who like soundtracks this is a must, and if you just like wonderful music, again, it is a must.

"Horner, the legend has returned!".......2006-02-08

With "Collecting the Ballots" we are reintroduced to the awesome prelude Horner composed for The Mask of Zorro. The difference is that after the tap dancing and clapping, there's no loud bang of the main theme. The theme is expanded a bit and later makes its soft, heroic appearance.

The talk and hype of this album is the longest track: "The Train." Horner composes many long tracks for other works but this is one of, if not, his longest action track to date. It starts hard and fast with a Spanish trumpet, tapping and percussion all leading up to the very Spanish, fun Zorro theme at the 1-minute mark. From there it's non-stop action to the very end. This is one sweeping, swashbuckling ride of a score.

If you enjoyed the first Zorro music, you'll enjoy this one. However, there are no new themes only a multiple amount of use of the romantic theme from the first Zorro. This could be good or bad. It depends on your taste.

The action tracks really make this an awesome score. It's difficult to pick one composition over the over; Mask of Zorro or Legend of Zorro?

This is James Horner's best action score of the year. Add this one to your collection!

Great Fun!.......2005-11-23

"The Legend of Zorro"
The movie comes at an unusual time, seven years after it's predecessor. Why one only has to wonder what took them so long to get around to it, it's provided us with a new James Horner score at the very least. The first score was one of his best action scores... fun, inventive, and with excellent themes. Everyone raved about Horner's creativity, how much different it was from the rest of his work. He's now returned for a sequel (he doesn't do many of those, he's only scored sequels for "An American Tail", "Cocoon", "48 Hrs" and "Star Trek") to "Zorro" and like his other sequel scores ("An American Tail 2" excepted), it's quite similar to the first one. The opening track, "Collecting the Ballots" begins with the same hard guitar strum as the first, and the notes of clapping that follow are identical to the original score as well... fortunately, it's not a complete repeat after that. The same themes are utilized throughout the score, there's no significant new ones (aside from a "false love theme", you'll understand when you see the movie), but Horner uses them in different enough ways to make this score interesting. The instrumentation is the same (clapping hands, stomping feet, tambourines, guitars, ethnic pipes, and blaring horns) but the rhythms and paces are different.

The overall feel of the score is slightly more playful than the original, but it never feels cartoonish. It's simply more fun and less threatening than the original score. Whether this is a pro or con I will leave up to you. The love theme is used more often than the main theme this time around, and it's featured in stunning arrangements several times, but the focus of this score is action music. The action is a lot of fun, and if you enjoyed the first score, you will likely enjoy this one as well. The album is refreshingly free of Horner's cliches while simultaneously sounding like a Horner score... mostly. The highlight track of the album, and there are a few to choose from, is probably "The Train". The longest cue, it's a nearly non-stop action piece that is superbly exciting and epic in structure. Near the end, though, it seems that Horner got so creative he actually jumps out of his own musical borders and seems to be channeling John Williams in "Revenge of the Sith" mode, without ever directly stealing from him. Fascinating. Another bonus is that we have no annoying pop song here, rather, we get an end credits suite (My Family is My Life) that goes back and forth between the main theme and the love theme in various forms. As you probably have noticed, Horner likes to end his scores on a quiet note... his end credits tend to finish the themes, and then fade off into oblivion with quiet, gentle, wandering strings or flutes. Not here. In a bold move not heard since the likes of "Star Trek" or "The Rocketeer" (some might include "Ransom"), Horner brings his score to a close with a mighty brass trill, finishing off his action adventure with a bang. Cool!

Okay, I'll stop raving and make my obligatory complaints. The score is only prevented from reaching a five-star level due to it's derivative nature. There are no new themes here of note, and a novice might have a hard time telling it from the original. But on it's own, it's excellent, and unlike John William's second "Harry Potter" score, this is a score that doesn't pale in comparison to the original. It may not have quite as many highlights as the original score, but it's a more consistently well-written and quality listen. Plus the end credits suite is far more satisfying than that silly song. I've heard better scores this year in "Kingdom of Heaven", "Hostage", "Star Wars", "The Greatest Game Ever Played", "Corpse Bride", "Charlie and the Chocolate Factory", and others, but few of them have been as much pure orchestral fun as "The Legend of Zorro." Recommended.

"when sword-play & heroes filled the silver screen".......2001-07-11

On a scale of five stars for performance...five for quality of recording...this CD comes up aces all around...featuring "The City Of Prague Philharmonic"...conducted by Paul Bateman...have once again risen to the occasion...hit the mark..."THE MARK OF ZORRO!"

Of course there are stand outs ~ "MARK OF ZORRO", the unforgettable theme by composer Alfred Newman, is high on the list of "film-score-buff" collectors...instantly recognizable..."THE SWORDSMAN OF SIENA-PRELUDE", Italian composer Mario Nascimbene score is graceful and exhilarating with melody..."ROBIN & MARIAN SUITE", outstanding composition by John Barry is so overwhelming with melody...themes flow like a clear clean sparkling stream.

Silva Screen Records America remains the leader when it comes to soundtrack quality and content...an enjoyable CD, even if you have never seen any of the films...when we talk about "film classics"...this is what we're talking about.

Total Time: 54:08 on 13 Tracks ~ Silva Screen SSD-3010 ~ (1997)

Pretty darn good, at least for a Silva compilation CD........1999-05-31

Getting right to the numbers. On a scale of five and rounding up, I'd rate the CD at four stars: three (Bateman) and five (Raine) for performance; three for compilation selections; and four for sound quality). If I use a "Silva-only compilations rating system," this CD gets five stars out of five (extremely few Silva compilations rise above one star using this system). Rather than a "Z" on the front of the box, it should be a "RH" for "The Mark of Robin Hood"--8% of the CD has to do with a single Zorro score; 44% covers many (but not all) silver-screen RHs. Perhaps most aggrievedly missing, is Mel Brooks' Robin Hood: Men In Tights (1993-USA)--it should have been included if only for the chorus selection that clarifies the film's title! Despite what it says on the back of the box, Mr. Bateman does not conduct all sections; Mr Nic Raine conducts a suite from The Duelists (1977-UK). Like Mr. Charles Gerhardt, any film score conducted by Mr. Raine (he has done many on Silva) should be bought instantly--they're among the best recordings available today! Finally, unlike virtually all other Silva releases, you don't need a jewelers eye piece to read what's on the CD, the conductor's name, or the name of the orchestra--but that eye piece still comes in handy when you try to read the CD booklet!

Drink a Sangria with this.......2004-01-16

It has been a while since I drank a Sangria, though I did buy all the ingredients: Spanish Red Wine, Brandy, Club Soda, Fruits...& I have the music for it: "Zorro & Romantic Guitars".
This CD will add a little romance to your life with well played if not overly familiar Classic Spanish guitar music, everything from Ravel's Bolero to "Cielito Lindo". Put this in your CD player, adjust the sound, sit down with the love of your life, pour the wine, & give her a kiss. Or better written: If your like me & are tired of hearing Mex-Tex all day long from your co-workers radios, but still love Spanish music, this CD will be as refreshing as a good Sangria. Drink Up!!!

a creative angle on the old latin favorites.......2002-06-04

This CD is fabulous. The artists portray some very popular (and often overplayed) latin songs with such an innovative flare that they take on new life. Anyone who is a fan of classic spanish guitar music, or just wants some memorable background music for a gathering, this is your CD. It is our all time family favorite CD.

cliffhangers!music from the classic republic serials.......2002-03-20

Great album!
I just sat back,closed my eyes,and relived great memories of these great serials that I saw as a kid.The music is so accurate
that it could have been lifted from the films instead of re-creations.I reccomend it highly!

This collection far exceeded my expectations........1999-10-18

I've been a huge fan of Republic Pictures serials for many years and was thrilled to discover this collection. James King and the CinemaSound Orchestra have captured the pulse pounding tempo of those classic Republic Serials perfectly!!! The music brought back fond memories of watching Commando Cody (The Rocket-Man), the Masked Marvel and all the rest. If you are a Republic Serial fan or just love great motion picture music, this CD is a must have for your collection.

Excellent, thrilling, action-packed, chilling.......1999-04-11

As loyal, dedicated fans of Republic Serials, we found this soundtrack to be one of a kind. When you listen to this, you will return to those thrilling days of yesteryear at the Saturday matinee, when our heros were threatened by Zardoz, the Crimson Ghost, Dr. Satan and 39013, and couldn't wait for Dick Tracy to arrive on the scene.

It's a bad CD!.......2002-06-06

It's a bad CD! It isn't Alfred Newman!...The choir is the worst choir I ever hear! The singers have horrible voices....
If you want hear the true Newman , buy the available originals in SAE, Rhino and Tsunamy labels

Finally!.......2002-04-17

I cant tell you how pleased I am that this collection is coming out! I have been trying for several years to replace my vinyl copy of just "The Diary of Anne Frank" with no success. I found the original in a cut out bin at a camera store when the own stopped carrying records back in the 60's. It has a flaw on the first band of the "b" side, but it is still quite valuable(yes I still have it, and have no intention of parting with it. Thank you for releasing even this portion of a great film score. Any chance that the full score will be reissued on CD??

A very complete summary of Alfred Newman's film music.......2001-11-23

This is a very good two-CD edition of the best of Alfred Newman's film music. Moreover, it includes several suites not available before, such as "The Razor's Edge", "The Keys of the Kingdom", "How the West was won", "The Diary of Anne Frank", plus the magnificent new Cantata "Man of Galilee", adapted from music of "The Robe" and "The Greatest story ever told". It includes also the overture of "The Mark of Zorro", that well deserved to be included in a Newman-Anthology (though it had been previosly relesed by the same label in a separate CD). Regarding other tracks, for instance "Cathy's Theme" from "Wuthering Heights" or "Conquest" from "Captain from Castile", in my opinion the tempos are very slow, though the versions are also good. In the particular case of "Conquest" I prefer other recordings, with more strength, such as Newman's symphonic suite, Korngold-Gerhard's recording, and Naxos'recording by Richard Hyman in "Majestic Marches", which includes not only the famous march but also the prelude of "Captain from Castile".
The only single contrary comment deals with the information booklet. I detected some "inventions" in the text. For instance the author speaks of Mexico as being part of South America, while most of Mexico (especially today's Mexico City) is in North America (only the Yucatan peninsula is in Central America), and says the Spanish conquerors cross the "pampas", while the "pampas" are not in Mexico, but thousands of kilometers to the South. They are huge and completely plain land extensions, without mountains, located in the South Cone of South America, especially in Patagonia. Obviously this mistake is not important, but it is convenient to avoid geographic confusions.

"Man of Many Melodies...Alfred Newman!".......2001-10-18

Alfred Newman (3/17/1901 - 2/17/1970), brother to Lionel Newman, uncle to Randy Newman, and father of two well known sons Thomas and David Newman, both accomplished composers in their own right...but the man who composed early in the '30s such great scores as ~ "Street Scene"(1931)..."I Cover The Waterfront"(1933)..."The Call Of The Wild"(1935)..."Stella Dallas"..."The Prisoner Of Zenda"(1937)...then came 1939, when he composed not one, or two or three, but nine great scores "Beau Geste", "Drums Along The Mohawk", "GUNGA DIN" (one of my all-time favorites, from any composer that lived or living today), "The Hunchback Of Notre Dame", "The Rains Came", "The Real Glory", "They Shall Have Music", "Wuthering Heights", "Young Mr. Lincoln"(another high on the list, starring Henry Fonda)..."Grapes Of Wrath"(1940)..."Blood & Sand"(1941)..."How Green Was My Valley"(1941)..."The Black Swan"(1942)..."Heaven Can Wait"(1943)..."My Friend Flicka"..."A Tree Grows In Brooklyn"(1945)..."Gentlemen's Agreement"(1947)..."A Letter To Three Wives"(1949)..."Down To The Sea In Ships"(1949)..."Prince Of Foxes"(1949)..."Twelve O'Clock High"(1949)..."All About Eve"(1950)(classic film, great cast)..."David & Bathsheba"(1951)..."With A Song In My Heart"(1952)(the Jane Froman Story, with Susan Hayward)..."The Robe"(1953)..."The Egyptian"(1954)..."A Man Called Peter"(1955)..."Love Is A Many Splendored Thing"(1955)..."The Seven Year Itch"(1955)..."Anatasia"(1956)..."The Diary Of Anne Frank"(1959)..."How The West Was Won"(1962)(then came CINERAMA, three cameras and sound that put you in the picture)..."The Greatest Story Ever Told"(1965)..."Airport"(1970)(this was Newman's last film), I've touched only the surface of his composing career, which involved arranging all the music for 20th Century-Fox studios, where Mr. Newman was music director.

Newman's scores gave the audience what they wanted ~ warmth, sensual, inspiring, haunting melodies...a gift of telling a story without words, best to hear the music through tempo and rhythms, which produce peaks and valleys, thus this is life, and our favorite composer was obviously successful and a master of "International Melodies", many of which appeared in his filmscores.

Silva America's 2-CD-Set, featuring The City Of Prague Philharmonic Orchestra conducted by Kenneth Alwyn, Paul Bateman and Nic Raine and the Crouch End Festival Chorus(Choir Master-David Temple). Recorded in "Dolby Surround" with the new technology of "HDCD", "film-score-buffs" with flip their wigs on this compilation...composing over 150 film scores and countless arrangements for other composers, this legacy of such dedication will always be with us through CD's, such as this one ~ ALFRED NEWMAN!

You might try other Silva America releases, all worthy of a good listen ~ "The Godfather Trilogy"(SSD-1121)..."The Lion in Winter"(SSD-1131)..."Gone With The Wind:The Essential Max Steiner Film Music Collection"(2-CD-Set)(SSD-1132)..."John Barry:The Collection"(4-CD-Set)(SSD-1128)...please check out my reviews on amazon.com/music.
