Monsoon Wedding is Mychael Danna's second collaboration with film director Mira Nair, (Kama Sutra was the first), and he has again compiled a winning soundtrack. Danna explores a wide range of emotions, from solemn to celebratory, through different generations of Indian culture. The contemplative "Good Indian Girls" and "Hold Me, I'm Falling" feature Danna's trademark piano ambience over traditional Indian instrumentation, and the vivacious "Baraat" sounds like a Punjabi variation on Dixieland, while "Delhi.com" ventures into dreamy ethno-techno territory. Sukhwinder Singh's "Today My Heart Desires" serves up lively bhangra rock, and Laxmikant Pyarelal's "Today the Weather Plays Tricks on Me" (performed by Mohammed Rafi) swoons with strings and male vocals. In all, the soundtrack's pleasing variety of Eastern music mirrors the film's old and new worlds living within a singular culture. --Bryan Reesman

5 out of 5 stars Monsoon Wedding Soundtrack is Terrific.......2007-05-18

I really enjoyed the movie and was pleased to find the soundtrack. Great cd if you're a fan of Bollywood!

5 out of 5 stars Loved it!.......2007-03-24


I just saw the movie MONSOON WEDDING and I absolutely loved it! Of course, I just HAD to have the soundtrack, so I bought the Cd recently and loved it too! WOW!

The Cd will leave you in a happy mood... Wonderful up-beat songs, many are so danceable and hipnotic. I've been playing this Cd all week ...I just wish it were longer because I would love to have more Cds like this in my Cd collection.

5 out of 5 stars Just as fabulous as the movie!.......2007-01-31

This is an excellent soundtrack from an excellent movie. The music is fantastic - makes you want get up and move your feet! It's got such a happy, wistful, exotic flavor throughout the CD. I think this will probably be one that I wear out from listening to it so much!

5 out of 5 stars Love It, Love It, Love It.......2007-01-21

I just love this CD. I'm preferential to the work of Mychael Danna and this is another awesome work of his. There is everything from old Indian love ballads to the popular Bollywood music of today, with some very beautiful instrumentals in between.

I'd recommend seeing the movie too. As well, I'd check out Danna's music for another Mira Nair movie, "Kama Sutra: A Tale of Love."

4 out of 5 stars Culture-Happy-Dance-Reflect-Appreciate-Savor-Relax-Laugh.......2006-11-06

Above I listed some words that first came to mind when I thought about this cd.
It is very Culture rich and soaked in Indian flavor. It's colorful and makes you happy with a laugh or two; as it seeks to portray the traditional music typical of a Punjabi wedding in Delhi, India.
You want to dance with most songs and sit quietly to reflect with others. I listed appreciate because we often don't sit back to appreciate the richness that other cultures provide. My 2 year old appreciates this music in her broken wanna be Hindi mimic.
She dances as does my 6 year old to this music. It's really a great CD but I would recommend seeing the movie first.

4 out of 5 stars Radiant, sentimental music with a hint of an edge.......2004-01-01

The warm, touching side of Chris Spheeris takes center stage in this instrumental album, which seems to have been reorganized and re-released in 1994 by Essence Records. Composer Spheeris is featured on keyboards and guitar, accompanied by wistful reeds, electric bass and light accoustic percussion. As with much of Spheeris' work, the selections on "Desires" don't fit neatly into any particular stylistic category. Accoustic and electronic instruments blend together seamlessly to create music that is emotive, heartfelt and approachable. Some pieces are pervaded by a subtle electronic ambience that lingers discreetly in the background, creating a relaxing, timeless atmosphere. Other selections are gently upbeat, moved forward by a progressive harmonic structure. All are pleasant and interesting, with good, appealing melodies and engagingly varied construction. Much of Spheeris' work on "Desires of the Heart" reminds me of Yanni's style, and fans of one should enjoy the other too. Try "Reflections of Passion" by Yanni, and for a more intense musical journey, inspired by many world-music elements, check out Spheeris' "Dancing with the Muse".

5 out of 5 stars Wonderful.......2002-05-01

Chris Spheeris is one of the best musicians I have heard in a long time. I don't like to think of myself as being old (48) but is today's music the worst music you have heard? It is so good to hear quality music in Chris Spheeris. The problem is that they don't play his music on the radio or in stores where people can hear it and get back to great music. I just by chance discovered his music and have been spreading it since to anyone that would listen. Thank you.

5 out of 5 stars awesome.......2001-02-01

CHRIS DOES A WONDERFUL JOB ON THIS CD. THIS IS STILL MY FAVORITE OUT OF ALL HIS WORKS. THIS MUSIC PUTS YOU IN A MELLOW AND CONTEMPLATIVE MOOD.

4 out of 5 stars A Classic from the 80's.......2000-04-27

This was one of the first "new age" CD's I ever purchased and it is still one of my favorites. It is great music for listening to while working late at night or relaxing on a Sunday afternoon. Meditative and relaxing.

5 out of 5 stars This is an oldie but goodie!.......1999-08-10

Anything Chris does is fantastic, and he always moves the spirit through his creative sounds. I've been a fan for 10 years. Finally, I met him in Sedona when he was playing at Rainbow's End. His personality matches his music - sweet and beautiful, sexy and exciting.
