Editorial Reviews
Fanfare Magazine, Dec. 1994
"Rebecca Kite is a fine performer with impressive technique, musical sense, and ability to exploit the nuances of the instrument.
Album Description
When I unpacked and set up my five octave marimba on Christmas Eve in 1985 (a Yamaha YM6000 - Serial #10!) I was overwhelmed with its incredible responsiveness and musical possibilities! I realized immediately that I was starting a journey of musical discovery to explore the musical potential of this instrument. Over the next years, I experimented with techniques, mallets, repertoire and most intensely, with musical color, voicings and phrasings. The pieces I recorded on Across Time are the compositions that learned and performed with this beautiful instrument in my journey to develop my own musical voice. Rebecca Kite

John Williams' lovely and moving score for the sixth Star Wars film brings thirty years of collaborating on George Lucas' beyond-popular intergalactic franchise to a close. (Is this really the end of Star Wars? Can't Lucas and Williams work together on a prequel to these prequels? Let us hope so, and that Jar Jar Binks is nowhere near it.) As this music accompanies the most exciting Star Wars film in many a moon, the soundtrack itself is more fun, more evil, more nasty and bumpy. Many of the heroic, anthemic themes woven throughout Episode Three: Revenge of the Sith will necessarily be familiar to any fan of the series, from the "Imperial March" to the main theme. It's remarkable how stirring the latter can be, no matter how many times you've heard it, and even for those who do not have all their money invested in S.W. memorabilia. There is a lot of new music here, and the lush, extensive range of both Williams and the London Symphony Orchestra is on display, most notably in the menacing, percolating "General Grievous" and the rousing "New Hope" end theme. --Mike McGonigal

Customer Reviews:
Star Wars: A Musical Journey (2005) (V).......2007-06-21
product: Star Wars: A Musical Journey (2005) (V), included as bonus disc in Episode III soundtrack.
The bonus dvd with this soundtrack was the reason I purchased. I enjoy film soundtracks, and science fiction, but this dvd was a real highlight for me. I got the soundtrack cd out of the local library. The cd was missing from the case, but I found this wonderful dvd instead that I went out to purchase later.
With optional segments of dialog from Ian McDiarmid, this film is a stunning visual and musical overview of the full epic story of episodes I-VI of Star Wars. For those of us who felt that eps. IV-VI fell short of our expectations, this film presents them well as parts of the whole story. The Musical Journey also stands as a summary of the entire SW opus for someone who is not familiar with the Star Wars characters and plot. Highly recommended.
Options: no subtitles or other options.
Not one of his bests, but very close.......2007-05-21
The Episode III soundtrack is very good. Not great, but very, very good. You can tell that Williams is getting old, but he still manages to weave together a very memorable score.
My favorite tracks are "Battle of the Heroes," "Anakin's Betrayal," Palpatine's teachings, "Anakin vs. Obi-Wan," and the "Immolation Scene."
The others are very good as well, but these are especially nice. "Battle of the Heroes" is Dual of the Fates for Revenge of the Sith. "Anakin's Betrayal" is a very sad track that is, in my opinion, one of William's most powerful pieces. "Palpatine's Teachings" is really, really neat. It's very dark and moody, a perfect piece for the evil emperor. The only weird thing is the end. "Anakin vs. Obi-Wan" is the action piece that plays during the battles of Anakin and Obi-Wan, and Yoda and the Emperor. Finally, "The Immolation Scene" is another sad piece, even more so than "Anakin's Betrayal."
Although I really like this CD, there are some things that are missing (as usual). First, the whole sequence where the droids are looking for Obi-Wan after he was shot. You see Obi-Wan in his ship with Senator Organa on the Hologram (or whatever it is), and Obi-Wan says that his clones turned on him. That was some pretty awesome music that OF COURSE was left out of the CD. Then there was Dual of the Fates in the movie, but completely absent from the CD. And probably the most annoying was that whole piece of music before Obi-Wan and Anakin fight. It was so touching and sad and I CAN'T BELIEVE THEY LEFT IT OUT! Absolutely amazing. Also, did anyone notice that some little bits were cut out? For example, in Anakin vs. Obi Wan, they cut out about a second or two of choir. What?! What the heck is with that? It's when Anakin is running on the long thing and jumps on the droid on the lava. Also, there was some pretty cool drumming when you see Yoda and the Emperor fighting, and you can see the whole stadium (the big room). There's also drumming in "Enter Lord Vader" that is muted in the soundtrack.
Oh well...if I'm going to collect movie scores, I'm going to have to get used to the fact that in almost all cases there's not going to be every bit of music. I've experienced this in both Pirates of the Caribbean, Jurassic Park I (there was very little left out on this score), and almost everything else. At the moment, I'm just waiting for the 22nd, for the Pirates of the Caribbean 3 soundtrack. It's gonna be amazing.

John Williams' finest work.......2007-04-20
There is little more I can say that hasn't already been said about the soundtrack to Episode 3, especially what Amazon contributor Dan Mohr wrote in his review of the soundtrack on 2/2/2006. His review captured almost all the thoughts, feelings, and emotions I had when I first listened to the soundtrack, and was, IMO, the best review of John Williams' greatest masterpiece.
Having said that, I will say that few soundtracks have ever so perfectly captured the underlying emotional currents of their respective movie; in the case of ROTS, the contemporaneous tragedies of Anakin's fall to the Dark Side, the extermination of the Jedi, and the rise of the oppressive Empire. The listener is confronted with the depth and totality of the evil that has beset the entire galaxy to a degree that the film could not reach in only 2 hours.
Bravo, Dan Mohr, and BRAVO John Williams!
A Great Conclusion to the Prequel Trilogy.......2007-04-07
This is a great work of art. I rank it 4th among Star Wars soundtracks after A New Hope, The Empire Strikes Back and The Phantom Menace. I had a hard deciding which I thought was better, The Phantom Meance or Revenge of the Sith, but I decided that The Phantom Menace lays the foundation for so much that is in this soundtrack and is thus the more masterful work. But that doesn't mean that this score still isn't great. Every piece is a thrill to listen to and pace never lets up. "Battle of the Hereos" is an amazing piece and the rendition of the "Funeral Theme" from Episoded I captures the film's tragety magnificently. Also I do not think John Williams could have portrayed the Jedi's extinction more perfectly than he did in "Anakin's Betrayal". This is without a doubt the best score of 2005 and one of the best of the decade.
Williams is slumming it.......2007-04-01
Williams's score for Revenge of the Sith is almost entirely overbearing, lacking any emotional subtlety. The music is overcomplicated and even a bit confusing, especially in the tracks that correspond to action sequences in the movie. His overuse of choral tracks and vocals is too bombastic and irritating to be listened to without the explosions and laser blasts of the soundtrack to soften them. (Yes, this music is actually softened by the sounds of warfare.) Worst of all, much of the music has simply been lifted from earlier scores. At times his self-imitation was so blatant that I actually wondered whether the editor who had complied this score had made a mistake and I was listening to The Empire Strikes Back or A New Hope. Also suffers from not including the entire score, in some cases cutting out musical segues in obvious and awkward ways.

Customer Reviews:
Pure beauty.......2005-09-06
Ever since Charlotte Church turned into a tabloids' darling and a wannabe pop star, there's been a gap opened for a young, sweet-faced soprano. The best bet on filling it seems to be Hayley Westenra, a young singer/dancer from New Zealand.
The result: "Pure," an album that is reminiscent of early Sarah Brightman, back when she did folk songs and showtunes. Westenra sticks close to her classical sound with songs like the delicate "In Trutina" and the traditional New Zealand song "Pokarekare Ana," which is rendered with the backing of a a rather muddled male chorus and some swelling strings.
However, Westenra doesn't neglect more modern songs, and she does well in classical pop as well as straightforward classical. The big difference seems to be a bit of synth and a delicate guitar melody, in songs like the charming "Beat of Your Heart" and dreamy "Why Painted the Moon Black?" It's a smooth, thoroughly sweet crossover effect.
Westenra also eschews the usual round of classical-pop songs, like "Nella Fantasia." I love that song, but it's been done so many times. Instead, she opts for Maori lullabies, Vivaldi ballads, the neglected "Mummer's Dance" and the orchestral cathedral grandeur of "Benedictus." She even covers Kate Bush's "Wuthering Heights," adding a modern feel to the finale.
That is not to say that every choice is an excellent one. "Wuthering Heights" has Westenra trying to sound more Bush-ian, while "Amazing Grace" is too simple vocally. Aside from those, her choices of song are excellent -- rich, uplifting and beautiful, and backed by a wide range of orchestral musicians, especially the strings.
There is also an accompanying EP, in which Westenra covers four Christmas ballads, and does them all justice. Her vocals are well suited to the dignified lyrics of songs like "The Mummer's Dance" and "Silent Night," although a bit less for the still-lovely "Mary Did You Know" and "Away in a Manger."
Her vocals themselves are not operatic, but they are strong, clear and sweet, without pretensions or dramatic flourishes. The effect is stunning, more given to magic and sweetness than to keeping to classical standards. Since this was recorded when Westenra was only sixteen, one wonders how good she'll be in ten years.
Despite comparisons to Charlotte Church, Hayley Westenra is more like Sarah Brightman -- a sweet-voiced singer, straddling the fence between classical and pop. An enchanting experience.
WHAT A GIFT!.......2004-12-20
I RECEIVED THESE 2 CDS AS A GIFT AND I LISTEN TO THEM FREQUENTLY. HER PERFORMANCE WITH RUSSELL WATSON (ON DVD)ON HIS TOUR IS WONDERFUL. I CAN'T WAIT FOR A NEW ALBUM. WOULD LIKE TO GET HER NEW SONG, BRIDAL BALLAD, FROM THE SOUNDTRACK OF THE MERCHANT OF VENICE
Incredible voice - Incredible CD.......2004-04-29
I recently saw Hayley on TV and had to immediately buy this CD. Her voice is so clear and pure, and her songs are filled with lyrical emotion.
It is an absolutely incredible CD that any music lover should have in their collection. My favorite song is Wuthering Heights.
The Best.......2004-04-27
Her album is the best, voice of an angel.......you can totally relakes to her music.
Charlotte is NO match..........2003-12-15
Hayley is just phenomenal. There is no doubt that she surpasses every other female artist in her genre. This CD is astonishing. My two favorite songs are "Heaven" and "Wuthering Heights". The first Hayley Westenra song I ever heard was "Heaven". It would not be the last. Her voice is like that of an angel. She has a smooth, serene sound, and she has an incredible range. If you want a more classical sound, you want her. It's not that gaudy stuff that people generally think of. This stuff has a beat... and it's not pumping with bass. If you're a fan of Sarah Brightman, Josh Groban, Charlotte Church, or Mario Frangoulis... try Hayley Westenra, you won't regret it. I just can't wait 'til she comes to the states... that'll be a good day. She has a few Italian songs, but she's not heavy on the foreign stuff like some of the other artists of Opera / Classical. She's got a wonderful voice for a little girl... I'm a huge fan, Hayley! You roped me in, in about 2 minutes time!

Great Comedian.......2007-03-23
I don't know what the other reviewer is talking about, this cd is hillarious. If you don't like his impressions, don't buy the cd. But Frank is hillarious, especially with his Madden impressions, of course.
What a Waste of My Money.......2004-11-20
I will admit my stupidity, I bought this CD without looking into what it was....This is a collection of 15 5 minute, free, half-assed bits done for morning radio at 7AM in front of ass-kissing radio hosts to promote the real comedy show Frank was in town for that weekend, and someone decided to put the free half-assed bits on a CD and sell it to us for $15, gee thanks....
Does anyone realize the bits just are not even that funny?....Just because a kiss-ass morning radio host laughs hysterically at your ranting in a goofy voice, does not make it truly funny....I understand Frank's "gem" is doing John Madden, but 15 extremely similar bits of John Madden on one CD? Who thought of this ridiculous idea?....
He does some good impressions, and sure, he throws in some other voices, like: Pat Summerall; Jim Rome (2 exact same *unfunny* skits of this guy); Adam Sandler; Rod Roddy; Robin Williams; Al Pacino; and some others, but these are all just thrown in for a matter of seconds before jumping back to his John Madden....
I am sure his standup routine could actually be pretty funny as long as it hopefully is not just regurgitations of the same Madden bits over and over, but this CD was the biggest waste of my money....

There are more glamorous artists in the contemporary Christian music stable; there are surely those with a slicker, more pop-based sound. And then there is Michael Card, Bible scholar, teacher, and musician. Not unlike John Michael Talbot, with whom he made the somewhat controversial Brother to Brother album, Card seems beyond such worldly concerns, crafting intelligent parables and homilies in deceptively simple structures. Following that logic, while a cursory look might poise Card as a bandwagon jumper, Starkindler: A Celtic Conversation Across Time is a bountiful harvest of rhyme and reason; all the better to glorify the fundamental truths of Christ-centered worship. "Be Thou My Vision" and "Jesus, Lover of My Soul" are but two outstanding examples. From their humblest beginnings, many of our most familiar hymns are rooted in centuries-old traditional Irish tunes, and that is the premise on which Starkindler is built. Thoughtful arrangements incorporate fiddle, harp, and tin whistle to Card's uniquely chorded guitar work. --Paige La Grone

Michael Card's delightful versions of familiar medolies.......2004-11-28
I believe that Michael Card's music is truly inspired by God and am in awe of this CD in which Card records old, familiar melodies in his own original and unique new ways. I like the orchestral arrangements and appreciate the variety of instrumentation throughout the entire CD. I really enjoy Starkindler (by M. Card) and am very impressed by both tracks of "Be Thou My Vision" with the reprise being absolutely heavenly. I did not think I would like this CD as most of the songs are not written by M. Card, however, I was delightfully surprised by his interpretations of old songs and the way one can feel the inspiration of the Creator in all his work. This is truly now one my favorite CDs of Michael Card. I also enjoyed the fact that with this CD as well as all Michael Card music one can hear and understand each word of each song, which is a very high priority for this artist. Again I am so pleased and would highly recommend this CD to anyone who loves Christian music.
Orchestration seems to overwhelm the vocals.......2004-09-12
After listening to previews from this CD, I picked it up because I especially enjoy simple hymns of the kind selected for this list. But it surprised me to hear how "done up" the arrangements were: too many instruments, at times, and often too much harmonic or rhythmic complexity backing very basic melodies. Frankly, some of the arrangements seemed to mimic some of the worst aspects of canned Celtic and new age music. This is a promising program and I would not discount Card's ability to sing it well. But his voice is simply lost amid the various instruments strutting their stuff.
Fresh Relaxing Journey through time.......2003-02-01
Michael Card has masterfully produced these old favourites.
One of Card's best . . ........1999-09-11
Michael Card's music always draws your heart to Jesus, and this one does so in an exceptional way. For sheer worship & love of our Saviour, this album is pure delight.
Michael Card sings from the heart.......1999-07-16
No matter what Michael sings, you can feel God's love spread through his voice. It is always very calming and appealing.

Stirring and movingly beautiful score.......2003-02-23
Saw the IMAX film three times and had to find this wonderful soundtrack. The music will simply transport you, it is so perfectly matched to the mood and feeling of the film. This is a heartfelt look at immigrants coming to New York in the early 1900's when my own grandfolks arrived from Europe. It is told via a narrator reading letters to his mama and papa back in Russia and the little boy who stars in this film is captivating in his expressions of joy, sadness, fear and anticipation. If you can get your hands on the tape, buy it! If not just enjoy this soundtrack -- truly beautiful music.
Barry Paints a Vivid Picture of Turn of the Century NYC.......2000-06-06
Across the Sea of Time is a beautifully told and crafted IMAX movie and which tells a young boy's story of immigration into NYC in the late 19th Century. Much of the movie is based on stereoscopic photos from the period, all done in 3D. We stumbled upon the movie by accident, but once I heard the music, it etched the story permanently in my mind and I had to find the soundtrack. Friends who have heard the CD, but never saw the movie, remark about the how beautiful the score is. If you like Dances With Wolves' soundtrack, you'll like Across the Sea of Time.
Another masterpiece by John Barry.......1999-09-07
Just listened to this CD for the first time yesterday evening. Have not seen the movie since in Germany it is hard to get, but the music is very beautiful (as expected from John Barry) and works very well even without the movie.
enchanting melodies.......1999-01-17
I had first heard this soundtrack during the intermission of another IMAX movie. I was immediatley mesmerized by its sweeping melodies and themes. I also took a guess that it was no other that John Barry who had composed such wonderful music. This IMAX soundtrack has simply scrumptious songs by John Barry and feature some of his best work to date. The songs are very tranquil and relaxing. Some are romantic while others are symbolically sad. All these varying moods are conveyed through Barry's excellent compositions. Fans of Barry may recognize one particular theme that was previously composed for his Moviola compilation. Though this cd risks being a sleeper, because the film has not been seen by many, it should not be disregarded. This is truly magical stuff!
The music provides feelings of nostalgia and times past.......1998-11-12
For one to really appreciate the mood and feeling in this selection, it would be good to first have the opportunity to view the Imax 3-D movie of the same name. That doesn't mean it is necessary to have seen the movie and the associated sound track. This music selection stands on its own. The music was composed by John Barry who also conducted the English Chamber Orchestra. The movie and the music have achieved something of a cult following. This is a result, perhaps, due to the extraordinary presentation of the movie and sound track in the Imax environment.

Music perfectly fitting for its odd but fascinating film.......1999-04-19
I actually haven't listened to the cd, but I've got the tape, which I dubbed onto cd rather well. This music is not too far from say, the credits music they use for Xena, just for the sake of comparison. It seems like they've included just about every musical sound from the actual film, which is appropriate, since I've seen few films that used music more effectively. This music so specifically fits the film, which I think is an odd, wonderful story. I recommend both (the video can often be found in rental stores).
