Music From The Pirates Of The Caribbean Trilogy

does not feel the same when I heard them in the movie

I was not really into the the movie until I heard the music while watching the Dead Man's chest(the one played by Keira Knightley). I bought this CD, hoped it remind me that feeling. The music is still good. However, I don't know why, it is not as good as it played in the movie.
I wonder if other soundtrack CD is better than this one or not. October 22, 2008

Movie music at its best

For the beginning of Star Wars in 1977 until the 1990's, few movies outside of those scored by John Williams had soundtracks that could be considered great orchestral music. Then came movies like Willow, Dragonheart, Gladiator and then the Lord of the Rings movies. Great original soundtracks now became more common. After the LOTR trilogy, maybe the best soundtrack this decade is that from the Pirates of the Caribbean movies. This one-CD sampler contains most of the key pieces from all three movies, and is a great buy. The sound and orchestration is all but indistinguishable from that heard in the movies. The melodies are rich, the keys are spot on, and the price is quite good considering that each of the individual movie soundtracks sell for similar prices. Also a plus is the cover insert. It gives a brief overview of how the POTC ride became the POTC movie; and how the music composers were chosen. Overall, a great buy. February 7, 2008

Orchestral music for Scallywags!

This CD is a fantastic way to expose your children to orchestral music! It is great fun to listen to but no fluff involved! It is packed full of up-beat, well-written orchestral music that will help anyone who thinks this type of music is for old-people to realize that in fact orchestral music is indeedy for intelligent, fun-loving scallywags!!!

Outstanding music of the Trilogy

My friend advised to buy this CD from Amazon.com (unfortunately, it was not sold from Amazon.ca). I really enjoyed listening to the great music performed by the City of Prague Philharmonic Orchestra. This CD brings the best music of the Pirates of the Caribbean Trilogy. Some of the soundtracks are amalgamated with choir which gives a unique flavor to the music.

I like all the soundtracks and when I wanted to count the number of the best soundtracks, I ended up counting most of them ! Mind you that the 2 music soundtracks which I favor among all are (Suite from Dead Man's Chest-Davy Jones) and (Suite from at World's End-Drink Up Me Hearties). December 2, 2007
