Informed by a vintage Hollywood production sheen and flashback-fueled, identity-questioning melodramatics worthy of Hitchcock, Spanish filmmaker Pedro Almodovar's sexually-charged film was quickly hailed as a mature masterpiece. The film's classic Hollywood conceits are deep-rooted, and Iberian composer Alberto Iglesias reinforces the film's often retro mood via a brooding, classically oriented score with an ear towards history. It may briefly excerpt Rossini's "Kyrie" to haunting effect, but the touchstone here is the Bernard Herrmann of Hitchcock's prime, with an emphasis on their epochal Vertigo and especially the tense, dark strings of Psycho (which "Escena Familiar" and "Cine Olimpo" echo with haunting grace). But while Iglesias capably evokes the color and spirit of those iconic touchstones, he crucially does it without sacrificing his own identity. Evocations of Spanish culture come mostly via vintage performances of "Quiza, Quiza, Quiza," "Cuoro Matta" and others, but on the expansive "Puerta Finale" the composer skillfully interweaves his Herrmann influences with touches of mournful jazz, flamenco and "Kyrie"'s choral echoes, creating a compelling, oft chilling post-modern new whole. -- Jerry McCulley

5 out of 5 stars Even better than the film.......2004-11-21

Alberto Iglesias did it again, a wonderful soundtrack!

His last collaboration with Pedro Almodovar, "Talk to her", is one of the best scores I've heard in recent years. In that movie, the scenes of the country villa, accompanying with the touching song of "Cucurrucucu Paloma" by Caetano Veloso, easily became one of the most beautiful five minuets I ever had in a theatre.

Before I went to see "Bad education", I can't help wondering, Could I have another enjoyable moment like "Cucurrucucu Paloma"? Luckily, I did have one, sort of. The Spanish rendition of "Moon River" is such a beautiful and haunting piece. But unluckily, the way the music delivered in the film is so disturbing. It started as a beautiful and innocent singing by a boy standing by the river while ended up with an innuendo of the ugly fact of sexual violations. However, if you didn't see the movie, the "moon river" will be a pure pleasant enjoyment.

Compared to the slightly weak movie, the music itself is powerful and flawless. From the beginning to the end, it doesn't have a single dull moment. In a word, buy this awesome CD!

5 out of 5 stars The Starving Crocodiles... .......2004-11-17

The Starving Crocodiles

Almodovar's latest movie is undoubtedly his best, and a very inventive film-noir that absorbs and electrifies you from the very beginning. Alberto Iglesias' score serves "as a cradle where the movie rests" as the auteur himself said.

La Mala Educacion (Bad Education) is one of -if not- the best soundtrack composed this year, and its style is absolutely magnificent. Following the film-noir trend, Iglesias' score is a mixture of tunes a la Herrman ("Juan y el Sr. Berenguer", "Por mi grandisima culpa", "Escena Familiar"), poignant waltzes ("Foulard en seda", "La Carta", "Valsetto"), and vocalized cues that reflect the theme of the movie, and illustrate it fittingly ("Kyrie", "La piscina", "El cine como espejo"). "Cine Olympo", an exquisite theme for the movie-within-the-movie manifests itself disguisedly many times, in variations, as Iglesias' has done in previous scores where a parallel story is narrated - The Flower of my Secret, Live Flesh, Talk to Her, and All About my Mother- however the best track in the score is the "Overture". Other superb tracks are "Carta del mas alla", "Plato", and "Adagietto"... melodies that crave lust, but "Puerta Final" -the MAIN theme- is absolutely grand; probably the best potpourri of songs written in the last decade, that will grab you by the horns from the moment it opens to the last saxophone refrain, in an orgasm of eight minutes that you will want to experience over and over again.

The soundtrack also consists of key songs that in one way or another relate to the main characters and the story: "Maniqui Parisien", "Cuore Matto", "Moon River" (a very avant-garde arrangement), and "Jardinero".

Alberto Iglesias has composed a score so dark, rich, hunting, powerful, and mysterious... that proves to be irresistible.

Experience the Bad Education!!!

    Renz and his gang come up with great pieces that anyone can love, and they bring real spirit to it. Their concerts in NY are always a lot of fun. Check out their Ren. & Baroque Christmas CDs, too.

    5 out of 5 stars An Excellent Alternative.......2002-11-20

    This is not a "run of the mill" Christmas CD. These pieces were written hundreds of years before Christmas Carols became popular. Plainsong chant and insturmental excellence abound. This cd even has medieval drumming. I listen to this one all year around.

    We have been using this music for years during our roleplaying sessions and I have to say that it is perhaps the best music for any fantasy roleplaying game. The atmosphere it creates is perfect for high magic, LOTR-style, games.

    5 out of 5 stars Amazing!!!!!.......2002-01-10

    From the first time I heard this CD, I loved it!!!! I find it very relaxing. From one music lover to the next, I highly recommend this CD!!!!!!!!

    I bought this CD when it first came out and love it as much now as the first time I heard it playing in a small shop. It's pure and clear with lighthearted melodies and beautiful arrangements reminiscent of ancient times. Pleasing to the ear and the spirit.

      5 out of 5 stars Zarzuela (bel canto in Spanish).......2001-01-20

      This recording is one of the most beautiful ones I have ever heard. On most recordings that contain arias by different singers, you can hear great voices, average, and not so good ones. It is amazing that all the singers on this recording are excellent. This is the first time that I listen to Ms. Bayo's voice and it is so refreshing. Placido Domingo sounds so great singing "Leandro's romanza". The zarzuela is considered bel canto because of the style and vocal exigencies that wonderful music has. Like opera, the stories can be very dramatic, fun and mysterious. Montserrat Caballe, Carreras, Domingo and many other famous singers have done many recordings on it. Viva la zarzuela!!!

      4 out of 5 stars A Zarzuela Sampler.......2000-04-26

      Viva La Zarzzuela Indeed! Zarzuela is to Madrid as Operetta is to Vienna, but this much admired art form has captivated audiences around the world, especially in Spanish-speaking countries. For this CD, Maria Bayo and a spirited group of other musicians, including famed tenor Placido Domingo, have joined together in a sampling of Zarzuela's very varied repertoire. Individual tracks range from sparkling Fandangos and Mazurkas to rhapsodic Romanzas and an entergetic Habanera. Bayo's lyric presentation of the "Song of the Nightingale (Cancion del Ruisenor)" is particularly affecting but Domingo contributes mightily to the CD's overall impact, most notably in the "Romanza de Leandro". Composers represented include such distinuished artists as Vives, Sorozabal, Breton, Barbieri, and Torroba.

            5 out of 5 stars A Musical Trip Through The Ancient Kingdom.......2005-02-19

            This was the musical score to a exposition that took place 1990/91, a historical journey into Galician History from the Celts to the late Suabian invaders of the sixth century. Milladoiro were the first experts in Galician traditional music that made a big deal for the folk music heritage of the Galician country after centuries of Spanish-Castilian political domain during which the cultural roots of Galicia were strongly oppressed or even denied by the establishment. Going from traditional songs through self-composed melodies, Milladoiro prove that they are masters that do know their craft well and never failed tempted by commercial trends, hence their music remains as truly and essencial traditional until today. The trucks setted in this cd are Celtic music at its best with Gregorian influences from the Middle Age. The Way of St. James brought musical influences from abroad through the Atlantic litoral path, mainly from France and the lyrical tradition of Provence that were added to the native traditional instruments such as the bagpipe and other percusion and string ones which were passed on over generations. For the ones that hadn't the chance to view the exposition then remains the awesome soundtrack to over two thousand years of musical heritage maybe also linking to the rediscovery of an unjustly unknown trait that's fighting against oblivion.

            5 out of 5 stars BREATHTAKING, WITHOUT CONCESSION TO COMMERCIAL PRESSURE.......1999-03-22

            THIS IS BY FAR THE BEST KIND OF CELTIC MUSIC I HAVE HEARD IN A LONG TIME. WARM, BREATHTAKING, IT CATCHES THAT KIND OF PAST THAT IS UNKNOWN TO MOST OF US YET COVETED BY US ALL.

            5 out of 5 stars A modern look at Galicia's ancient Celtic traditions........1998-07-04

            The music of Galicia has a great deal in common with those of its cousins in Scotland, Ireland, Wales, and Man. There have been periods of immigration and emigration to and from these Celtic homelands for over 2,500 years, and this disc perfectly shows the musical links developed over two milleniums.

            An excellent example to show the rest of the world that Spanish music is not just Flamenco and castanets, but bagpipes and harps as well!

            This release covers music for an exhibition in Galicia.
