Some Of The Most Beautiful Music I Have Ever Heard April 17, 2006
Clinton A. Seal (Seattle, WA)
"How To Make An American Quilt" is the soundtrack that turned me into a Thomas Newman fan. He he has composed some of the most beautiful music I've ever heard with this score. "He Never Came Back," "Sophia," "Quilting Theme" and "An American Quilt" are simply amazing. "The Diver," my favorite score soundtrack of all time, is the most beautiful song I have ever heard. After beginning with the tender melody from "He Never Came Back" the song builds into a breath-taking climax. It then ends with the soft "Sophia" theme, reminding us of who "The Diver" was and still is. It is truly one of the most amazing songs ever composed for a movie!
"How To Make An American Quilt" is a heart-warming movie that reminds each of us to look at our own lives and the love that threads them together. Thomas Newman has composed an incredible score that suits the movie perfectly. This score, although short, is worth every penny. I have played this score almost daily since I purchased it. "Quilt" is perfect for background music, while reading, or just by itself while you listen and think about your own life. You will not be disappointed with this score...in my opinion, it's Newman's best!

One of Newman's best. You'll never tire of listening to the scores. Also, the songs from the past will lead you to a walk through time.

How To Make An American Quilt: Music This was by far the best musical soundtrack I have had the pleasure of listening to in a long time. Bravo!

This cd is, simply put, one of the most wholesome cd you'll find today. The songs will make you think of good things and there is only one semi-depressing tune on this cd, track #4, but that too becomes delightful. If you're a Newman fan, you'll enjoy hearing his positive songs, unlike some of the music from Green Mile, Shawshank, and Road to Perdition, which were very fitting for those films. How To Make An American Quilt's music was actually better than the film that embodied it. Out of my collection of nearly fifty musical scores, this is one of my top five. Tracks #1,2,5,6,15,16,18, and 20 are delightful. This is a great cd to read a book to. You will not be dissapointed with this one.
