This changed my life.,
By Mike McGovern (Canada, Alberta) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Jurassic Park (Audio CD)
The music of Jurassic Park opened my heart. It changed my life.Before I saw Jurassic Park, I hated music. Never listened to a stitch. I saw the show when I was fouteen, and most of the music washed right over me. I didn't care. But it was the gentle piano solo in the track labelled "Welcome to Jurassic Park" that finally caught my attention (at the end of the movie.) For the first time, I really listened. The music is the main Jurassic Park theme, played on solo piano, and a little sad. But when the orchestra shifts in, the music is taken gently from a whistlful recollection to a shining hymn of clanging glory. This is love translated into sound - dignified and exultant. It is grand, but slow, without losing the gentleness that is missing in almost every other piece of music I have ever heard, before or since. The beauty will move a gentle heart to tears. It is not music for a dinosaur show, it is music for communion. I cannot understand why John Williams does not write music like this anymore - the sheer overflow of joy alone is worth the effort. As Oliver Stone once said, Williams has the soul of a poet. Isn't poetic beauty like this the reason we all became involved with classical music in the first place? I firmly believe that if John Willaims had never existed, I would have gone right on hating music, all my life. I still find little to admire in it, although there are a few tiny bright spots. I also get the impression that Williams was trying to change the world with his music somehow, trying to encourage people to be more tuneful, more sincere, more alive. I believe he thinks he has failed. It is going against the tide, since most musicians I know are moody and depressed, and most people still listen to popular garbage. If there are sensitive souls out there who want to find the light, begin with the music of Jurassic Park. Mr. Williams, you have not failed, you reached at least one person who understands the kindness locked in the heart. I am a better man because of you. Thank you.

one of the greatest JOHN WILLIAMS scores ever,
By A Customer
This review is from: Jurassic Park (Audio CD)
This is one of the greatest JOHN WILLIAMS scores ever. If I have any complaints, they are that the pieces seem to drag out too long.And now, a little message for someone names PRESTON JELMET. You can't lie about a great score like this. YOU DID NOT COMPOSE THIS!!!!! JOHN WILLIAMS DID!!!!! GO PUT YOUR LIES SOMEWHERE ELSE!!!!! I HATE YOU!!!!! I HATE THE GUY NAMES "ALCAR" TOO!!!!!
