When Steven Spielberg and Tom Hanks collaborated on the Academy Award®-winning <I>Saving Private Ryan</I>, an abiding passion to further honor the young fighting soldiers of World War II was born in both men, resulting in <I>Band of Brothers</I>, an ambitious 10-part miniseries based on historian Stephen Ambrose's account of a 101st Airborne regiment as it fought its way across Europe. In scoring the sweeping project, Michael Kamen has eschewed much of the martial music familiar from past war epics in favor of the quiet, largely introspective sound that's informed modern battle films from <I>Platoon</I> through <I>Private Ryan</I> and <I>The Thin Red Line</I>. And if his reverential, often somber tones capture the dignity of the soldiers and the gravity of the events, they sometimes do so at the expense of other human dimensions--and the lively pop music of the '40s. Still, Kamen's work strikes an impressive balance, fusing the pastoral with subtle modern rhythm touches and utilizing spare piano solos, a darkly ironic use of Beethoven's String Quartet in C-sharp Minor, and a memorable, elegiac main theme. <I>--Jerry McCulley</I>
Customer Reviews:
Wrong artist!!!.......2007-05-23
It wasn't Michael Kamen who wrote the Requiem of a Soldier song. It was written originally by Amici Forever Opera for the Band of Brothers producers, by request. I think it is sad that they are putting Michael Kamen's name on this, letting him take credit for Amici's fine work.

Band of Brothers.......2007-03-10
I just recently saw this series on DVD. Every time a new episode started,I was treated to the excellent opening theme. This album will bring enjoyment to all that are familiar with the series and really enjoyed all the music.
Soothing sounds.......2007-01-24
The movie Band of Brothers is great, and the music is fabulous. Kamen has written such beautiful music. This CD is very easy to listen to and rather soothing. The vocals of the Title Song include beautiful passages of tenor voices. This CD is definitely on my list for those lazy Sunday afternoons in front of the fireplace with a good book.
