Original score composed by Iva Davies, Christopher Gordon, and Richard Tognetti.
The original score for the film MASTER AND COMMANDER is the result of a collaborative effort by three composers: Iva Davies, Christopher Gordon, and Richard Tognetti. Their music matches the movie's epic scale and effectively conveys the exhilaration of adventure on the high seas during the Napoleonic wars. Tracks such as "The Far Side of the World" and "Smoke N'Oakum" are panoramic soundscapes full of dramatic themes and evocative motifs, while "Into the Fog," "The Doldrums," and "The Battle" utilize propulsive rhythms and atmospheric sound effects to create an ambiance of mystery, danger, and suspense. Arrangements of traditional folk tunes such as "The Cuckold Comes Out of the Avery," "O'Sullivan's March," and "Nancy Dawson" serve to lighten the mood. The soundtrack also includes music from the time period the film is set in such as Mozart's Violin Concerto No. 3, Boccherini's "La Musica Notturna Delle Strade Di Madrid," and the Prelude from Bach's Cello Suite No. 1 as performed by Yo-Yo Ma.

Great CD It's a great mix of music. I especially liked the classical pieces. Even my husband (who doesn't like classical music) liked it. Submitted by carinn (Seattle, WA) Was This Review Helpful? YesNo 2 of 3 found this helpful.
Beautiful Music If you enjoyed this movie, the soundtrack is one you will want to add to your collection. It is compelling, moving, entertaining and deeply satisfying. Yo-Yo Ma's performance of Bach's "Prelude" is spectacular. Submitted by spreesmom (CT, USA) Was This Review Helpful? YesNo 2 of 4 found this helpful.
Good "melting pot" I loved the variety of different composers. After all who can't deny Boccherini with the La Musica Notturna Delle Strade Di Madrid No. 6. Op. 30? That is one of my favorite pieces of all time. The CD is truely worth the money, especially because of the many composers. Submitted by yavennie (Manchester, England, UK) Was This Review Helpful?
