Album Description
"Whisper Of Love" A Selection of Japanese Songs - II The songs of Yoshinao Nakada and Hideo Kobayashi opened my heart to the beauty and delicacy of contemporary Japanese music when I was a music college student. I believe Japanese songs should be appreciated, loved and sung by people all over the world like Italian, German, French and other songs. I wish this CD conveys my passion and affection to these contemporary Japanese songs together with the beautiful minds of the composers.
Whisper Of Love, Music, Hideo Kobayashi Yoshinao Nakada, Yoko Ojima, Beautiful, touching and elegant Japanese Art Songs.

JUST PERFECTION!!.......2006-04-08
I have all of Dmitri's recordings and this is my favorite due to the quality of the songs, Dmitri's mastery of all of them and the really lush orchestrations. All of the songs are just gorgeous and his voice so beautiful that I listen to this all day at work on my portable CD player. I recently saw him in concert and purchased the DVD of the "War Songs" which were featured in the second half of his concert. Of course, I recommend the CD and the DVD as really stunning. However, if I could only listen to one of his CD's, this is my favorite. As a former singer who trained for 15 years, I can tell you that Dmitri's vocal technique is perfect, just perfect! The voice comes from heaven! Don't wait to get this one!
Hvorostovsky...........again, magic.......2006-02-14
Moscow Nights - This collection is emotionally draining, sad; the minor keys, the great poets and composers, an era unexpressed to Americans. It is a revelation, tended by one of the most beautiful of Russian voices. Listen to it in pieces, in a quiet space, and ponder. Dmitri commands an opera stage - two visits to Queen of Spades at the Met- can lead to no other conclusion. However, it is his quiet recollections of Russian folk music, Russian sacred music, and Soviet music that arouses his greatest talents. This is a recording to be treasured.
hvorostovsky does it again.......2005-05-01
This is the latest installment of the succesfull Hvorostosky/Orbelian collaboration. In "I met you my love" the spotlight was on the socalled Russian Romances, russian art songs of the 19e century. Then came " Where are you my brothers" a collection of Russian war songs. This title contains a collection of the best post war(50s&60s) songs. If you love melodious songs in minor key this is it.The selection is quiet varied and everybody will have his or her own favourites. For me there was'nt a redundant song. The singing is as always faultless and inspired, the Moscow Chamber Orchestra plays topnotch and the arrangments by Evgeny Stesyuk are as always beautifull. But be warned this cd can have a depressing effect because besides being beautifull this music is also mostly very moving. Buy if you love russian music and good musicianship you can't go wrong with this one.

It's a bunch of violins doing Cure. And?.......2005-03-12
Ok, so, what the hey. The String Quartet tributes are popping up like bloody mushrooms after a spring rain, which isn't necessarily a good thing. Not that it's a bad idea -- many of the bands covered are probably well managed by these instruments -- but this one, and the two TOOL I also own, are not exactly inspiring. (And if you can recognize "Hot Hot Hot !!!" by ear without being told, you deserve an award.) Everything is played blandly, and, in some cases, fairly oddly -- many notes are played counter to what would conceivably work better.
The selections are crap; possibly, the group wanted a mix of everything, but it's all mostly new, and mostly music that isn't even suited to the instruments. I shudder to think what would have happened if "The Cure" came out before this one. Terrible songs played even worse, most likely.
But, if you simply like instrumental music, it's not bad. It's just not necessarily The Cure.
There is no zero stars..........2004-07-15
... so I give this one ill deserved star. I love classical music. In particular I love string quartets. The Cure is fantastic. I thought this piece of junk might be magical. Hah! The arrangements are boring. The pace is ponderous. These "tributes" completely miss the point of the original wonderful cure songs. The only selection that isn't utter trash is "Lovecats". It's actually pretty good. I actually did discard this useless CD after the second bleak listen.
Forget about it!!!.......2004-05-29
If you are a fan of the Cure, or if you are a fan of any string quartets, forget about it. This album (and all the rest of the String Quartet Tribute albums for that matter) is BS. I am a classical cellist and a huge fan of the Cure, and this CD just pisses me off. These guys are trying to make some profit off of some amazing original music. The sound is horrible, technically they areextremely average, and there is no spirit to the music. Some ass clown probably arranged all of these songs for a bunch of classical players who don't even appreciate the original artist. They play like a bunch of greedy dinguses, and they sound phony. Don't support these guys, just stick to the originals.
Weak. Very, very weak........2004-04-24
** Two stars generously given for the idea and production. **
Okay I'm not a fan of Cure covers, in fact I can't seem to think of one that I like, most of them make me mad that it was even attempted. I love strings and the fact that Roberts vocal lines arent attempted I thought this was going to be the missing link of Cure covers/tributes...
So when I first saw this album, my jaw dropped, I couldn't believe my eyes. Stared at it in awe for a minute, purely overjoyed, bought it and RAN to my car to listen to it. . . . Was interesting... Then I got it home, sat down and really listened to the entire thing, to be incredibly disappointed. It's not "BAD", it's a great idea, it was put together very good .. BUT .. The track selection is everything that is wrong with this. In my opinion, most of these songs were HORRIBLE choices. I don't think many of these work well with a string quartet. A few, yeah okay, aren't bad, but could have been much better with the proper tracks. They selected mostly the more upbeat pop singles, Just Like Heaven? Lovecats? C'mon...
This would have been INCREDIBLE if they did songs like Same Deep Water as You, All Cats are Grey, Kyoto Song, Sinking, If only Tonight we can Sleep, Faith, Apart... Things like that, slower songs. The upbeat pop songs, don't work for me with a quartet.
Great idea, wonderfully done, but terrible terrible track selection.
If I had heard this before I bought it, I wouldn't have, think about this before you purchase this.
I really thought this was going to be something special, like the Joy Division string Tribute which I HIGHLY recomend over this one, in fact go and get that right now if your looking for a string tribute.
At Last!.......2002-05-06
I've been waiting a long time with a fantasy that someone would do some symphonic versions of some Cure songs. While a quartet is less grand than a full orchestra, "Whisper" still does the trick, and the quartets here are nothing to be disppointed by.
The songs on this album are imaginative versions of Cure songs, arranged for string quartet. Duh, right? Well, this project COULD have been drums and guitar with a violin playing Robert's vocal parts...considering this, I give "Whisper" high marks, even though I wish other less-known but more appropriate songs would have made the album ("A Few Hours After This," "To the Sky," "Treasure," etc). Bonus points for the covering of two newer tracks, "Bloodflowers" and "Maybe Someday." The version of "Just Like Heaven," The Cure's most covered song, joins the ranks of such great covers as Deadsy's and Dinosaur Jr's.
As I say, the arrangements are very close to the original songs, but don't adhere so closely that you think "why bother?" Vocal melodies are approximated - not duplicated - by the strings, which is what I prefer. The arrangement of "Hot Hot Hot" varies the furthest from the original, making a surprisingly wonderfully sombre piece out of the original chintsy tune. Pizzicato figures in nicely on a few tunes, as well.
The original tune "Zazen" sounds more like a Cure pastiche than a Cure-inspired tune; you'll probably be placing different parts of it with different songs. However, as nice as this tune is, I'd much rather have heard another full cover than this. (Granted, I'd rather the track be on it than have only 9 tracks on the album).
Overall, I'd recommend this album to huge Cure fans (who else would buy a tribute album anyway?). While not meeting my hugely high expectations (full orchestra, rare songs), this cd does a LOT better than what could have happened (listen to the "Pride" tribute to U2 to know what I mean). A good, solid album. Maybe this is naive, but I recommend buying this album rather than bootlegging, just so that the industry knows how welcome a project like this is (can we get any more, perhaps? : )

The best songs.......2006-03-01
You get all the background music in the movie. You can focus mote on the music rather then the action.
Feel the movie in music.......2005-10-09
This soundtrack is so far one of my favorite, listening it all the time. It still bring me as much emotion as the Movie. A great success in the selection of the musics illustrating the story...
Magical!.......2005-10-05
Ever since the day I downloaded the piece "Morgan-Amor Tristis" I knew I would love whatever CD came with it. I was 100% correct. This album contains songs that are so breathtakingly gorgeous I had to stop whatever I was doing just to listen to them.
Of course, as I mentioned earlier, "Morgan-Amor Tristis" Is the jewel of this CD, but I found the choral pieces to be equaly beautiful. "Dea Cantat- The Goddess Sings" is the second piece song as a solo with no instrumentation. The vocalist carries the song beautifuly and creates a simplistic joy.
Towards the end, the song "Cora de Dea- Voices of Goddess" (an instrumental and full choral version of "Dea Cantat") gives us a fitting finale.
I also enjoyed the songs "Celestin- Seditianis Auctor" and "Crystallus Malus- Dark Shrine" for their sense of hidden darkness and despare.
ANd finally the song "Spring Unchanged" brought with it the perfect sense of the season and all the characters.
This was my first order with Amazon and so I didn't know when to expect the Cd. To my delight, it arrived in less than four days! Thank you sooooo much!
This is a great CD. For all manga and anime lovers, this is a must have!
A worthy soundtrack to the movie.......2005-05-15
I bought this soundtrack CD right after I watched the movie on DVD. I enjoy the soundtrack as much as the movie. The orchestral pieces are particularly memorable. I had it literally playing for days as background music on my computer. It is still one of the few soundtrack CDs that I play regularly.
For your information.......2005-01-21
For your information, Nobuo Uematsu, the pioneer in gaming music of Final Fantasy, was involved in AMG movie soundtrack. So you can expect the best of the best and this is really an album of masterpiece with emotions.

Absolutely beautiful, with new age flavor.......2002-03-09
When I listened to this album for the first time at my uncle's home in China, I felt completely lost in the tenderness of Ms. Yang Xiao-lin's voice. It was like I was flying in a dream - her voice is absolutely beautiful, and her style is so refreshing. I like it so much that my uncle gave me his copy. Since then, I have listened to the album again and again...

Product Description
A heartfelt reading of original poetry supported by divinely meditative music and sounds. Your meditation or yoga time will never be the same again. The divine love of Radha and Krishna dances like rainfall, soothing and energizing with every word. Chandrika soulfully reads her original poetry, almost like a tender conversation between Radha and Krishna themselves. The mood is highlighted by sounds of water and peacocks and other birds, bringing the listener to the forests of Vrindavan. Close your eyes and take the journey. Subtle and serene background music is mixed in with an artistic hand by musicians, including Patrick Bernard (award winning New Age performer), Manuel Roberto, and Daniel Paul. Traditional Indian hand drums, as well as a wide range of stringed instruments and atmospheric percussion, support the dramatic first-person voice of Chandrika's poetry. Original poetry written and performed by Chandrika, with background music and mood effects. Approximately 60 minutes.
