Varekai Soundtrack buy CD music Music has always been a key part of the world famous circus troupe Cirque du Soleil's various performances (and each one has its own accompanying soundtrack available for purchase). Composed by longstanding Cirque du Soleil composer Rene Dupere and directed by well-known Hollywood conductor Simon Leclerc, 2005's KA is one of the most sweeping and ambitious of the troupe's works. Featuring a large choir and a full symphony orchestra, KA builds on the troupe's usual dramatic, world music-flavored pop to create a soundtrack worthy of the grand spectacle the company presents for this martial-arts themed show.

Varekai Soundtrack album for sale O opens with "Jeux d'Eau," a classically influenced adagio movement that features a contemplative cello melody and refined piano chords. From here, the soundtrack picks up steam with "Mer Noire," a piece that begins with a small vocal choir, then quickly transforms into an exhilarating overture replete with pounding drum rhythms and edge-of-your-seat string acrobatics. In the spirit of past Cirque du Soleil shows, O also borrows from various ethnic styles. Predictably, "Africa" blends various genres from the continent together with a vocal from an African native. Similarly, "Gamelan" invokes the sophisticated melodicism and modal underpinnings of Indonesian music while "Terre Aride" celebrates the exotic flavors of the Middle East. Overall, this is electrifying music; each composition bursts with color and variety. Original Soundtrack/Cirque du Soleil: Julie McInnes (vocals, acoustic guitar, tiple, cello); Toumany Kouyate (vocals, kora); Roxanne Potvin (vocals, flute, percussion); Elise Guay (vocals, bagpipe, shawm, recorder, crumhorn); Lei Qiang (erhu); Jean-Francois Cote (accordion, keyboards, programming, sampler); Stephanie Gariepy (soprano saxophone, tenor saxophone, keyboards); Vovo (percussion, sound effects). The Cirque du Soleil franchise has produced many fine soundtracks. Among them is O, a show with water as its leitmotif. A play on the French word for water ("eau"), O reflects the always clever and artful minds of this contemporary dance/circus troupe.

Varekai Soundtrack buy CD music Cirque Du Soleil decided to try something completely new on this album. The experiment worked, but the resulting piece of music is very different from any other album in the renowned company's discography. Instead of hiring one or two lead female singers, the production team went with a male baritone (Richard Price, Craig Jennings) and a child soprano (Amelie Landry). Some songs are duets, some are solo, and some are performed with the backing vocals of an entire choir. On certain tracks, most notably "Atmadja," the piping, sweet voice of the young female soloist is surreal and spooky in classic Cirque fashion. However, overall the vocals do not have the exotic, wild tone of Mystere or Alegria. A pre-pubescent singer could never claim the versatility and range of a Francine Poitras type, and, as a result, composer Benoit Jutras seems to have settled upon a more sweet, ethereal tone for the lead vocals, leaving any dramatic effects up to the male soloist or the backing choir. Interestingly, Jutras also brings some pop sensibilities into play at rather unpredictable times: "Let Me Fall" is closer to a pop ballad than anything Cirque has ever released. When the instruments dominate, there is a markedly more dramatic tone to the music -- but eventually they hush and drop to the background, leaving the air uncluttered but for one angelic voice. ~ L.

Varekai Soundtrack songs The compositions on Dralion draw not only from classical and new age sources, but also from various world beat idioms, including Indian music, African dances, and Eastern European folk music. It's another typically eclectic and inventive Cirque du Soleil project, and intriguing in the ways it finds commonalties between the disparate approaches of Western music and the other sources from which it draws. ~ Steve Huey Recorded at Wildsky Studio, Morin Heights, & Shockwave Music & Sound, Montreal, Canada.
