Customer Review

It's amazing that I have far more than 25 Williams soundtrack and I can not find a single bad. And since this is so, I will buy more more, more and more. And you can say it is worth it.
"Empire of the Sun" is a rather unusual work for John Williams. Because it is based on no major issue and varies dementprechend not. Basically a shame because this score has a lot of compositional ideas that were only partially alluded once and never again appeared. The Meldien were simply more expandable. But if one disregards the small weak point, the soundtrack is very good and a renewed masterpiece of the old master.

The first track suggests "Suo Gan" to. A song, which comes highly recommended and is the heart. With a choir and a female voice in the foreground, we hear a peaceful melody. "Jim`s New Life" played convinces with its quick orchestra inserts in staccato with the strings. Williams`Umgang with the orchestra is again strongly significantly. Very impressive I find "The Return To The City". Because this title is very complex. In the beginning you can hear muffled tones with a sad Meldie, but later a pleasant piano version.
"Liberation: Exultate Justi" is one of my favorite pieces. It consists of a choir and a wonderful Meldie. "Toy Planes, Home And Hearth" is equally impressive with a powerful melody that produces goosebumps, and later with a slightly playful piano version. Herrlich.

Letz finally I could list so many highlights, but I'll leave it for now herewith. This soundtrack is in short very complex with lots of great Meldien, which is unusual for a John Williams. Schade nevertheless remains that you could have put more score. But overall, everyone gets their money. Buy worthwhile.
