Can you remember last time you watched a movie and felt the actor's pain as if it was your own, or laughed so much your stomach ached? Now imagine a scene when a warrior charges towards his enemy, or where a great white shark is swimming in the dark water close to a bathing couple. What would these scenes be like without music? Would you really cry, laugh, or cover your eyes in horror so much if all you heard was the dialog? Music's impact on movies is undeniable and it enhances the total film experience. With this collection we have gathered a wide range of classical pieces from an interesting mix of well known and highly acclaimed films. Let Chopin's Nocturne in C-Sharp Minor remind you of Adrien Brody's incredible performance in the Pianist. Remember the film Platoon? You will when you hear Barber's beautiful and evocative Adagio for Strings. The Most Essential Classical Music in Movies includes 17 well-chosen tracks from composers such as Mozart, Verdi, Orff and Handel and a range of performers like the young Swedish rising star, Henrik Måwe, to one of the most famous Orchestras, the London Philharmonic Orchestra.
