Product Description

From Amazon.co.uk

Part show-tunes, part classical, and part folk music, Ronan Hardiman's score to Lord of the Dance, the musical starring dancer Michael Flatley, successfully avoids all the inherent pitfalls of such an enterprise. Hardiman has emerged as Ireland's finest interpreter of traditional music for films, TV, and the theatre, and under his guidance the 19 lush orchestral tunes, augmented with many traditional instruments, are rife with the spirit of the Emerald Isle. Two of the tracks feature the taps of Flatley and Co, while the rest highlight the score as composed by Hardiman with all its subtle textures intact and not masked by the live sound of tap dancing. Lord of the Dance is a perfect and very listenable fusion of Broadway and the indigenous heritage of Irish music making. --Derek Rath

Chronique amazon.fr

Lord Of The Dance est avant tout un spectacle que plus de 7 millions de personnes ont vu de par le monde. Un gigantesque show qui retrace l'histoire de l'une des plus anciennes légendes irlandaises et où se marient gigues endiablées, claquettes et rock. Une trentaine de danseurs s'emploient à marteler le sol pendant près de deux heures à un rythme incroyable, dans le plus pur style de la spécialité. Côté musique, le compositeur irlandais Ronan Hardiman nous a concocté une partition, habile mélange de musique rock et celte, qui caracole en tête des hits parade US. Une excellente façon de prolonger chez vous la magie du spectacle.

5.0 out of 5 stars Pure Irish Heartbeat !, May 31 2003
By 
Marjorie (Jundiaí, SP Brazil) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Lord Of The Dance (Audio CD)
This CD is a sensational piece of pure Irish music. It is full of great songs with a common style in all of them. It is , in fact, the soundtrack of one of the most impressive musical plays with dancing. There are deep, beautiful songs, uplifting ones, that offer you a rich diversity of tunes. It is usually Uilleann Pipes and serious fiddle playing, both of which abound on this album. The rhythm becomes progressively faster by playing the same melody more and more quickly. You may think that listening to the same melody repeated times is boring, but it's not. After listening to the 1st minute you'll blame yourself for having thought such a wrong thing before.
Besides being a great actor, Michael Flatley is one of the best dancers in the contemporary scene.
As a dancer, I envy his ability to show his true feelings while he is moving his body. If you have the chance, watch the video and you'll get the impression you're in the audience.

*****Absolutely, it is the best compilation of Irish music*****

5.0 out of 5 stars The Best Irish CD, May 19 2003
By 
Lizzie (California) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Lord Of The Dance (Audio CD)
Being an Irish dancer, I have a deeper appreciation of Irish music than most other people in the United States and the world. A lot of people I know cannot stand to hear even one minute of Irish music. All of my friends and myself find this CD the best compilation of Irish music I have ever heard, even my sister who despises Irish dance. There are deep, beautiful songs, uplifting songs and even rock songs with a bit of Irish music. The CD was cleverly put together, even with the special feature of dancers dancing in the shows on the last two songs.
This CD is great because it is not just Irish music, but a little bit of everything, appealing to everyone. It was worth every penny; I love Lord of the Dance!!!!
