Music composed by Andrew Lloyd Webber. Lyrics by Charles Hart.
It's a testament to Andrew Lloyd Webber's crowd-pleasing compositional skills that the original cast recording of THE PHANTOM OF THE OPERA went on to become the biggest-selling cast album ever. So when the time came to adapt his music for the film version of the monumentally successful theatrical work, Webber enlisted the aid of longtime collaborators Nigel Wright and Simon Lee. They produced an expanded orchestral version of the score, grander and more sumptuous than the original, and assembled a 100-member ensemble to do it justice.
However, the tragic story of the disfigured Phantom and Christine, the beautiful object of his desire, cannot be told without powerful performances of those roles. Gerard Butler and Emmy Rossum quickly dispel any concerns regarding the adequacy of their portrayals. Butler's full-blooded renditions of "The Music of the Night" and the title song are tinged with a dark eroticism, while Rossum's account of "Wishing You Were Somehow Here Again" skillfully conveys her character's vulnerability and conflicted feelings. The soundtrack also features a newly penned song by Webber, the poignant "Learn to Be Lonely," sung by Minnie Driver, who appears in the role ...

Anton Bruckner (1824-1896) wrote eleven symphonies including Symphony #0 and the Symphony in f Minor. He revised them so many times that if instead of these revisions he had composed new symphonies, their number might exceed the number of symphonies writtenby Mozart! Bruckner's lack of self-confidence allowed him to be persuaded by colleagues and even pupils to revise his compositions. You may hear the desperation in his words: "They want me to write differently. Certainly, I can, but I must not. God chose me from thousands and gaveme this talent. It is up to Him how I compose. What a sin it would be if I would follow others?" Despite the fact, that his symphonies underwent multiple alterations, Bruckner always kept the original scores for "later times." Bruckner's devotion to God enabled him to keep composing. The recording embodied on this CD is not the usual one, because it is the original version of Bruckner's symphony. Bruckner's church music sat well with audiences, but his symphonies, for which he is best known today, were radical in scope and received with hostility. Local orchestras, including the Vienna Philharmonic, were reluctant to perform his symphonies, usually deemed by them as formless, too long, and unmarketable. Bruckner (as well as many other great composers including Rachmaninov) suffered from destructive attacks by musical critics. Today no-one remembers the names of these "musical judges"; and their sentences,if you can still find them, sound very funny and shallow after a hundred years. According to many historians Bruckner was "humble, straightforward, uncomplicated, unpretentious and unsophisticated." Unlike Wagner, Bruckner rarely showed interest in literature (except the Bible), drama or political philosophy. There is a famous anecdote: after a performance of Wagner's Ring, Bruckner asked: "Why did they burn Brunnhilde?" Bruckner established himself as a composer very late, though he was born in a family of musicians and from his youth studied music seriously. Wilhelm Furtwangler once said: "Schubert and Mozart had already completed their life's works when Bruckner wasstill writing counterpoint exercises." It is always fascinating to watch audiences who are astonished by the early development of talent. I wonder why people don't consider a strawberry more superb, perfect and advanced than an orange because it ripens earlier? It is good to remember that everything has its own time and purpose. If there is a gun - one day it will shoot. It is a historic fact that Bruckner adored Wagner as almost a musical god and considered him a hero and father-like figure. Bruckner's dedication of his Third Symphony (1873) witnesses this fact. Maybe, Bruckner admired Wagner so much because Wagner's music was so different from his own? Another great impact on Bruckner's music was made by the late Beethoven, especially by his Ninth Symphony. It became a model for all of Bruckner's symphonies. There is an opinion that Bruckner didn't write eleven symphonies; he just wrote the same symphony eleventimes. Bruckner was an extremely devout man. His music is meditative and his symphonies can be compared with cathedrals in their scale. A rare feature to ...
