All the best song from Cirque du Soleil.......2007-02-19

You could listen to all the best songs from Cirque du Soleil! Even you never watch its shows, you will be attracted to buy the tickets once you listen it the songs!

Cirque as always.......2006-03-10

Cirque always has the most magnificent musicians. Always outstanding! This cd takes some of the best from different programs and combines them into one experiance. It is a great compilation that has been done in the wonderfully unique Cirque way!

Like a bowl of magical soup.......2005-12-25

This is NOT the full course dinner, but an opening course, a little tease for your taste buds, or in this case, your imagination. This is like magical soup where each spoonful is a different flavor and sometimes, well it is a combination of the otherworldly and the worldly. Sometimes it is just the right spice for that right moment. This is great music and deserves respect for the creativity that fueled its construction. Like any good chef, it is personal, quirky and eclectic. Enjoy! If you want the full course, go to a live production and be ready to be a glutton.

Not exactly "Le Best".......2005-12-06

I was going to give this 4 and a half stars, but I can't. Literally. Anyway, there are some great tracks on this CD. Even Alegria, where the singer sounded like she lost her voice. Some of the songs are on my iPod right now. But I wish they put more. This isn't enough. Do you have how much music you can load on a CD? Come on, Cirque, add more!

Absolutely Breathtaking Music.......2005-10-05

I didn't buy this cd off of Amazon, at a Borders Store actually. But anyway this cd is absolutely amazing with a 14 selection of absolutely breathtaking performances and compositions from the world renowned Performance Show known as Cirque Du Soleil. With spellbounding varieties of music on this cd from the show. It's an absolutely worthy CD to buy. Hands down--you'll love it! Just buy it and hear it for yourself!

Beauty, Passion and Madness.......2007-03-22

This CD is a bacchanalia. It is ecstatic and blissful and alien and sad and insane. There are so many worlds contained in this music that it's hard to describe. I have to say I've loved this CD for more than a decade and it has been a source of constant agony and joy and ecstasy. It doesn't age. It is a classic. There are so many nuances in it, so much fantasy, madness, passion and creativity that it is truly one of a kind. Each song produces a peculiar state of mind. I don't know how else to describe this experience. I'd say my favorite experiences are Mirki, Vai Vedrai, Querer (awesome!) and Valsapena. Please buy it and take the time to listen ... REALLY listen to it and experience it.

An Amazing Journey To A World Of Joy And Wonder.......2005-07-09

Alegria means happiness in Spanish, and that't exactly what this CD delivers, a good dose of happiness and a nice escape route from the pre-packaged wasteland of FM radio in the 21st Century. Having bought the CD several years ago, I could hardly wait to compare the listening experience to the live performance that I saw earlier today, and I must admit, the CD was an excellent primer for the show.

The most likable characteristic was the way the vocals in the live show matched the vocals on the CD.

Listening to Alegria makes you feel as if you've entered a fantasy land full of benign and carefree elves, goblins, and other wondrous mischievous misfit creatures whose only job is to take you to the edge of enjoyment and to let you define what your own limits are. And while the visual effects of the live show are mesmerizing, they would be useless without this powerful sound track, which is worth listening to on its own merits.

The songs are all built on melancholy keys, with the arrangements designed to tug at your emotions and create a feeling of Bohemia and old Europe. And despite the expectations of anyone who has ever seen a Cirque show, they deliver just the right dosage of fantasy and escapism with enough versatility to favor a nice drive, a quiet evening at home, or background music for a good book or even working on a project.

My favorite song on the CD is Vai Vedrai, which is a trademark Cirque song, with the haunting vocal adding to the sentimental gipsy lament that it seems to be broadcasting.

Highly recommended for anyone who enjoys a good alternative listen, wants to share music with the entire family, or is interested in the Cirque du Soleil phenomenon. Also recommended is a visit to any live performance by this troop, as well as any other of their CD, or DVD/VHS products. They truly deliver the goods.

Superb!.......2005-06-09

I saw "Alegria" when it came to my area, and the show took my breath away. I have seen both "O" and "Dralion," and heard samplings of other Cirque shows, but "Alegria" has perhaps the most upbeat songs on it. Favorites include the title track, 'Vai Vedrai,' and 'Querer.'

Definitely worth your money, and it provides very ecclectic listening/mood music.

Very disappointed!.......2005-01-11

Despite the interesting and colorful jacket, the music is very disappointing. Most of the music sounds the same. This would not be a CD that I would recommend to others.

Disappointed.......2005-09-14

I love the stage performance Alegria, but I have never seen the movie. I thought the movie would be simply the same show on big screen, and I was wrong. Should have done my research! The title song was the biggest disapointment. I know this is a different arrangement, but I was hoping for the same singer. I love the original singer very much. Her voice was so captivating. The singer in this album has a very low and deep voice, kind of gloomy and depressing. I prefer the orignal arrangement which is a lot more celebratoral in mood - isn't "alegria" supposed to mean "happiness"? The rest of the album is fine. The third song is very good.

true magic.......2002-09-05

this soundtrack it very great. i love everything about it. the songs are so wonderful & great to listen too. it is a must have for all fans & music loves out there in this world. if you love the movie then you will love the album as well. the songs very magical too. it makes me want to sing & dance . i feel so happy when i hear this lovely album. it's the best out there. it makes me think of italy again . if you like soundtracks then get this album for you or a friend. i love this album. buy it . you will
find true love again :)

Stands on its own.......2000-05-05

I really shouldn't be surprised when Cirque du Soleil releases an unbelievable CD anymore. This is the twelfth soundtrack that has been released, and it manages to carry the emotions of the movie very well. In fact, the basics of Alegria's movie plot can be followed quite well on the CD. Now all we need to wait for is some radio station DJ to pick this CD up and listen to the heart-wrenching Love Leaves Someone Behind and we'll be seeing Cirque get some well-deserved airtime.

Worth every single cent.......2000-03-16

At long last this album has been released, which should bring joy to some people. After watching the movie, I had too rush out and buy the album. Luckily i mangened to get a copy, and I would like to say, this is one of the best sountracks around. There are heart moving vocal songs. Instrumental songs, that will remind you of different parts of the movie. There are also extracts of songs from the original Alegria album. The songs here make you feel like laughing, dancing and even crying. Without doubt, this is a great album, and worth the price paid for it.

Cirque has outdone itself with this marvelous CD!.......2000-03-14

This soundtrack rivals even that of "O," Benoit Jutras's other Cirque masterpiece. The songs here are fabulous, both vocal and instrumental. The new arrangement of "Alegria" is just as good as, if not better than, the original, and every single one of the other vocal songs are some of the best I have heard. The instrumental pieces are also wonderful to listen to, whether they are slow and sophisticated or quick and lively. This CD has a little bit of everything; there are pop pieces, classical pieces, Spanish-style pieces, and much more. This is a must-have for any music lover, Cirque fan or not!
