Ever After: A Cinderella Story - Original Motion Picture Soundtrack [Soundtrack]

Editorial Reviews
Amazon.com
Don't be misled by the film's trailers; the soundtrack to Ever After--yet another modern adaptation of a Cinderella story--is an orchestral score by George Fenton. Best known for his work on Gandhi and The Fisher King, Fenton has created a sweeping orchestral score, with the occasional Celtic influences thrown in, as on "Cinderella" or the upbeat "Going to the Ball." But on most tracks Ever After's score is quiet and subtle. Though Fenton has done more memorable work (Cry Freedom), he succeeds here in accentuating the romance of the film. Brit soft-rockers Texas provide the lone vocal track on the score with the infectious closing tune "Put Your Arms Around Me." --Jason Verlinde

Fantasy in full bloom!!!!!!!!.......2006-12-29

This story to me is by far one of my favorites. It takes you off into a magical place in your mind. It is so well written that you actually place yourself into the story. The castles are my favorite. I too included castles in my book "Fallacious" and find them mesmerizing. This is a must see!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Very Beautiful Music!.......2005-12-15

This is a very beautiful soundtrack. My Friends and I love the movie, so we REALLY like the soundtrack. We listen to it every time they come to my house.
The Proposal is my favorite song.

Simply beautiful!.......2005-08-20

In all honesty, the Ever After soundtrack may be some of the most beautiful music I've ever heard. Although the music brings to mind the film it came from, this is certainly stand-alone music. My only complaint is the non-instrumental song at the end. The song simply does not match up with the Renaissance style music and really adds nothing to the overall CD. If you plan on using the music for a romantic dinner or background music, make sure to program your stereo to skip over it!

A beautiful soundtrack.......2005-08-20

I absolutely love this soundtrack. The songs are beautifully scored and it's just wonderful. I listen to it at work when I need to calm down. It reminds me of the movie. I can picture each scene in my head as the tracks play. I recommend this CD to anyone!

Simply Beautiful!!!.......2004-06-26

I love this soundtrack! I listen to it often and enjoy every minute. Number 6, "Homecoming" is definitely my favorite. I can just picture the scene in my mind as I listen. This soundtrack is beautiful, unique, and calming. I love the movie and the music reminds me of every scene. Though, I would like it if the tracks were longer. And sometimes I like to switch from this calming romantic music to something more adventerous and exciting. But when I am in the mood for gentle, pretty music I head straight for this soundtrack. I'm sure you will love it!
