Thematically, director Robert Altman's career sometimes seems an endless series of left turns into the unexpected; the one constant has been a rich and rewarding attention to the intricacies of character development and interaction. Composer Patrick Doyle underscores Gosford Park's Merchant-Ivory/Agatha Christie/Altman-wit fusion and '30s British upper-class setting with a score that's period spot-on, character-rich, and often sadly evocative. Doyle's restraint is masterful, often leaning on piano, accordion, and small string arrangements that emphasize the characters' intimacies and the film's drawing room settings. Key to the story are a handful of prewar songs by Ivor Novello (who's also a character in the film), ranging from the sprightly humor of "And Her Mother Came Too" and "What a Duke Should Be" to the romantic schmaltz of "I Can Give You the Starlight" and "Why Isn't It You?" The latter is performed here at the piano (and, remarkably, live before the cameras) by Jeremy Northam. Leavened by a small jazz ensemble and a few darkly ominous cues, Doyle's score is an understated gem. --Jerry McCulley

Gosford Park Sound Track.......2007-03-30

The original music is creative and very listenable. It is typical of popular music of the 1930s. This CD is highly recommended to those people who enjoy music from the 1920s and 1930s.

Better than the movie.......2004-12-08

Many people, I believe, buy a soundtrack because they are mesmerized by the movie and want to extend the experience by listening to something that reminds them of it. But "Gosford Park" is hardly that kind of movie. It is brilliant and atmospheric as it analyzes the British class system, but that's hardly the kind of thing that wins the heart. The soundtrack of this movie was my favorite CD from last year, and the reasons I liked it had nothing to do with the movie.

Why is this music so compelling and winning?

First, it is fun to discover the marvellous talent of Ivor Norvello. His music is half of the charm of the soundtrack. Some songs are funny ("Her mother came too"), some beautiful ("I can give you the starlight") and some poignant ("The land of might have been"). I had not encountered Norvello before this film. Jeremy Northam's perfect delivery of Norvello's songs would not leave me after I'd seen the film. Days later, I found the songs had taken up residence in the back of my head, insisting that I go back to the soundtrack to make them a permanent part of my musical life.

Second, there is the charm of the orchestral music composed by Patrick Doyle. Sometimes people wonder "why aren't they writing beautiful classical music any more?" Well, they are. It goes into soundtracks, however, rather than being commissioned by orchestras. The test for the quality of Doyle's compositions is that you don't need to refer to the film to appreciate this music. It simply charms and intrigues us with its own merits.

My third reason for loving this CD is too personal to mention here.

I give this CD my highest personal recommendation.

I don't mind the repeating themes, but the CD is too short!.......2004-06-08

Unlike many reviewers here, I didn't buy the CD to hear the Ivor Novello songs or Jeremy Northam's voice. I actually liked the instrumental tracks, and never actually thought I'd like to listen to something played on an accordion.

However, Mr. Doyle's music portrays the lethargy of the snobby Upstairs very well to the contrast of the relative energy of Novello's songs, which the Downstairs servants enjoy, but the Upstairs people can't stand.

My dislikes about the CD include the female singer who can't really sing and the length of the CD. Some of these cues are only about a minute long. WHY pay so much money for such a short CD??? Why not add more music??

Overall though, if you liked either Doyle's music or Novello's songs (hopefully the listener will like both), it's a CD worth getting.

Excellent Mix.......2003-04-23

I fell in love with this soundtrack when I watched Gosford Park in the cinemas.

Sometimes period music, sometimes mystery music, sometime personal music. Jeremy Northam's songs are simply delicious and I love hearing them.

I liken the style (not type) of mix to You've Got Mail.

Heaps of fun and lovely to listen to.

One the best soundtracks out there!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!.......2003-03-06

When I saw the movie at the theater I kept thinking I've got to have the soundtrack to this movie because it is so beautiful. I also really enjoyed the sung songs 6.And Her Mother Came Too, 10.I Can Give You The Starlight, 11.What A Duke Should Be, 16. Only For A While, 20. The Way It's Meant To Be, 24. The Land That Might-Have-Been!! I think that Patrick Doyle did a wonderful job of scoring this movie the just fits right in with it all, I only wish there was more to listen to!! I highly recommend this album to everyone who liked the movie and people who love great soundtracks, you will not be sorry if you buy this!!!!

Elly Ameling now more available .......2007-03-07

I had a 33 rpm album of Elly Ameling singing Schubert lieder accompanied by piano and clarinet at times. It was one of my all time favorite albums so I have been disappointed that I have not been able to find it anywhere on CD.

Now I can just buy this excellent collection. So much music in one place! Since I confess that I am far from an expert on the rest of her records, I look forward to hearing her sing many other styles and composers.

I think it is silly to criticize her for not singing Wagner, for example, since her version of many songs, especially lieder, are nothing short of sublime. I would like to hear how many Wagnerians sing Schubert or Mozart.

I doubt if they could approach the skill and soul with which Elly Ameling sings lieder.

Delight in every note.......2006-03-10

To speak as briefly as possible about this superb collection from an equally superb singer, what can I say but that Ms Ameling possessed a voice that shone with radiant warmth and star-like shimmer? And unlike many another light lyric soprano, Elly Ameling was possessed of a very high standard of musicianship, considerable intelligence, and a sort of immediate charm that captivates the listener.

So many of her recordings have still to be released on CD, but this 5CD-set goes some way towards remedying the situation. The repertoire spans a wide variety - French mèlodies, Lieder, light-hearted "sentimental" songs, Bach, etc. - and in each piece, Ms Ameling shows that quality of pearl-like beauty. It is a beauty which is also extremely pretty - a beauty of voice that is never overbearing and over-ripe, but perfectly blossoming upon the tree of inspiration.

I recommend this set unequivocally. It truly is sheer delight.

While they last..........2005-05-17

Elly Ameling held the quiet stage for recitals of great artistry and dignity for several decades and sadly most of the enormously successful CDs of her long career output are now unavailable. For those who have little access to the documentation of this very special artist, this box set is a must. It is a compilation of many of her recordings with differing accompanists, conductors, orchestras and composers. And while not all of the choices for inclusion here would be considered her greatest moments, there are enough works that sustain the warm memories of the little Dutch hausfrau who quietly and simply paid homage to composers with her clear and intelligent musicianship and radiant voice.

Ameling was known to schedule recitals of Schubert cycles and songs and in the afterglow of her performance answer the demand for curtain calls with additional Schubert melodies: she gifted her audience with the dignity of honoring a composer's works by maintaining the focus on that composer rather than milk the audience with the usual encore applause-getting favorites. And special moments such as quietly and pensively strolling through the orchestra during the Mahler 4th symphony to arrive at front stage, unapplauded, just in time for the opening line of her singing - those simple homage to composers and collaborators made her selfless manner endearing to audiences.

Despite the fact that Ameling's voice was on the small side she was always able to muster the projection to carry her message solidly in context with an orchestra. Yes, other more famous singers have recorded Ravel's quintessentially French SHEHERAZADE, but few have the perfection of diction and aura of mystery that Ameling maintained. Whether singing with piano or orchestra, or interpreting Bach, Mozart, Handel, and Vivaldi with the same degree of involvement as Brahms and Schumann and Schubert, Elly Ameling spanned a career that engendered passionate commitment from her fans. And this boxed set is a pocket full of memories to be treasured. Buy it before this too becomes unavailable. Grady Harp, May 05

Treasures From a Treasure.......2004-09-25

Treasures from a Treasure.

Ameling, one of the world's most beloved recitalists is captured here in a 5 CD collection offering some of her most beautiful recordings of song. While we are used to her perfection in songs of Bach, Mozart, Schubert, Schumann, Faure and Hahn, an added joy is her "pop" side, tackling - without a whiff of pretension, Porter, Kern, Gershwin, Ellington, et al.

What an absolute joy it is listening to this amazing artist sing these songs with an almost uncanny natural ease. There is no resorting to a "pop" voice and yet most of these pop standards songs sound as though they could have been written for her. Clean attacks, sometimes a bit of the pop technique of hanging on to a consonant longer than a classical artist normally would shows an appreciation and understanding of the style. Still, there is never once a compromise of her vocal beauty.

I like the way the songs have been arranged for her voice in that she sort of sings them clean, unaffected in the first half and then lets loose and kinda "swings" with it adding embellishments but never really changing her voice (Price, von Stade and other favorite singers of mine seem to have always added a breathy quality to much of their crossover material.)

Ameling doesn't resort to trying to "let her hair down" or get down and dirty, but rather the honest with which she approaches every one of these songs shows how much she enjoys singing them and her style is as refreshing as stumbling onto a cool spring on a sweltering summer's afternoon. A wonderful surprise.

More than fully earned praise for an exceptional singer........2003-07-15

As I had the privilige of hearing this outstanding Lied-singer during her long career in Holland and being the proud possessor of almost all her recordings, I cannot but fully agree with the professional and joyful review of Mr. Robert Holliston from Victoria, B.C. Canada.
Yes, it is unbelievable that of about the 150 recordings Mrs. Ameling made during her long career (for the greater part of course on the 'oldfashioned' LP's, as well as the innumerable Dutch live-recorded radio-concerts), so few CD's have been released.
Speaking of tradition: it was the page-turner of the Wigmore Hall in London who told Mrs. Ameling after her first recital in this hall, that she reminded him of Elisabeth Schumann. (And he certainly didn't mean her looks only!)
For those who are eager to hear her singing Ravel's Shéhérazade (just one example of stirring imagination combined with her Art of Singing) I can tell you that Philips released a 2-box CD of this work in 1999, combined with Debussy's La Damoiselle élue and a compilation of French mélodies, i.e. Debussy, Fauré, Duparc, Satie. One of the gems is Caplet's Le Corbeau et le Renard which even make children, who know the fables of La Fontaine, revel in the singing of the quarrelsome birds....
Her brilliant accompanyist is Rudolf Jansen. Let us cherish great artists in their art!

Good CD Don't Know Why People are Hatin'.......2007-03-22

Montell Jordan is one of the few R&B singers worth listening to. I like the way that he sets up the CD the way Boyz II Men did their earlier ones by putting all of the fast songs together and all the slow ones together. I also like the way that he does Once Upon a Time is Spanish if you never seen the music video for this song you missed out. My favorites are
Get it on Tonite
Let's Cuddle Up
Once Upon a Time

Quality album from Montell Jordan-5 stars.......2006-10-07

I wouldn't put this album in the league of his classic albums like "This Is How We Do It" and "Let's Ride" but this album's still great from start to finish, my favorite tracks on here are "Once Upon A Time", "Get Down", "Do You","When I'm Sexin' You", and "Let's Get It On Tonite"(even though I like the remix with LL Cool J even better that ain't on the album), recommended from any of you r&b lovers out there, Montell's the truth!!

This one is in the league of "This is how we do it".......2005-09-05

This album was one of those albums where the first song is misleading to buy the album. Get it on...tonite is a hit like "This is how..." but this album is better than that one. I applaud his attempt at originality with TRACK 17 but he shouldn't have split the slow and up-tempo and he should have put the Get it on...tonite remix instead of the last song. Now not like the other reviewers who love and adore everything he comes out with, I am honest. I have 5 of the 6 albums but I am going to tell the truth. This is better than "this is how..." but nowhere near "Let's Ride" & "More to Tell".

bad music except for 1 song.......2005-03-24

I have and have heard a LOT of albums and this one really is crap. All the songs are pretty much the same and the difference between the first half and the second half (separated by the artist)...well there is no difference. He was trying to have have club music the first half and bedroom music the second half.

Terrific C.D.!.......2005-02-19

I finally left my frumpy spouse Bessie speechless. One large poop on and this book next to a breakfast plate at her folks house finally did it. And rendered me uninvited for the immediate future. What a shame. What a useful book. Bravo Gomi!! Bravo POOP!!

One for the ages to come........2005-01-19

Hope my titles don't scare people off, especially for great songs done by the Mighty Mos. I heard this song when I got the Ecko Unlimited Lyricist Lounge cd. With lines like" a buck fifty but still swinging like a heavy weight," you have to purchase it. That line right there would have knocked Ali off of his verbal horse. And last but not least the beat. Man, I hate trying to break dance. I can beat box better than most, but breakdancing, ooohhh, that's not good. But I actually tried when I heard that beat. That's how ill it is. Pick this up.

mos def kicking it new old school.......2003-02-10

this is simultaneously the best and funniest single I've heard in the past 12 months. Hearing Mos battle-rap himself is priceless. It sounds like mos had a lot of fun recording this single and it shows. This is my favorite single of the year and I've been bumping it non-stop since last week. It's good to see someone try to put out something different every once in a while.

This is simultaneously one of the best and one of the funniest singles I've heard all year. Funny in that it brings a smile to your face when you hear Mos battle-rap himself. You really have to hear it fully appreciate it. I think Mos definitely had a lot of fun making this record -- and it shows. My favorite single right now and I just heard it last night.

Wonderful Dance Jam!.......2003-05-14

Even though this song is over three years old, it still has the ability to get people up and dancing at the club. The mixture of the beat, melody, and Montel Jordan's smooth voice makes it a perfect dance song!

Another great thing about this CD is the remix of "Get It On...Tonite" that Montel Jordan did with LL Cool J! The remix is an even hotter track than the original!

I would highly suggest this CD to anyone who would love to listen to an incredible dance song!

Montel Jordan.......2000-04-10

I am a fan from Jamaica and Montel Jordan is rocking the clubs like crazy. That song gets rewinded 3 times in our clubs. It is definitely the R/B song of the millinium.

LOVE THIS SONG!.......2000-03-15

Honestly, I thought Montell was gonna disappear off the face of the music industry, becuase we haven't heard from him in what seems like a long time. But, Mr. "this is how we do it" is back, and I have to say that this might be his best song to date. From the catchy chorus to the great hook, the only thing this song could do without is the lyrics. It's about cheating, and I really don't think that's cool at all! But, a song is a song, and I won't protest about music's questionable areas, because I've never heard of anyone killing nobody with a CD. But anyway, not only does this single have get it on tonite, it also has an awesome remix with LL Cool J, and it also includes the seocnd single off the LP, Once Upon A Time. Let me tell ya, this song is just so beautiful. If you're really into music, it'll bring a tear to your eye. So, for 3 bucks, you get the two best songs on the album and a remix with one of the most influential rap artists in music history. Sounds like a good deal to me!

Montell Jordan's - "Get It On Tonight".......2000-03-13

The host of Motown Live has proved to top the R&B singles chart a number of times, including with his latest single "Get It On Tonight". Hits like "Let's Ride" and his catchy anthem "This Is How we Do It" shows that this Pepperdine University graduate has the skill to dominate the music charts. Despite the success of Montell Jordan's latest single: his lyrics as well as visuals for the video for "Get It On Tonight" can be viewed as eyebrow raising by some R&B and crossover pop chart audiences. However he maintains to sing decently along true R&B lines as well as possessing accompanying catchy groovy beats which can win people to the dance floor.

Product Description

This is the debut recording from this interesting 3 piece out of Rhode Island. It has the feel of a 70's recording (Zep, early Rush) with some jams thrown in for a good time. This cd takes you on a rock trip from the Prog feel of the "Mad Hatter/Tea Party" suite which show some Rush and King Crimson influence, to the jam-style "squiter eater" and "mbuna" which display some love for Phish and the Dead.
