Product description
SOUNDTRACK THE MISSION (MORRICONE ENNIO)
Amazon.com
Ennio Morricone's Academy Award-nominated score captures the conflict between 18th-century Jesuit missionaries trying to convert the native Indians, and the slavers who want to destroy them. In keeping with the serious subject matter and epic scope of Roland Joffé's film, the score is by turns grave, lyrical, and tense. Ever inventive, Morricone mixes liturgical chorales, native drumming, and Spanish-influenced guitars, often in the very same track, to capture the drama of the culture clash. His trademark lyricism also comes through, notably in the beautiful themes for "Gabriel's Oboe" and "The Mission." Not as over-the-top as his well-known spaghetti Western scores, The Mission shows Morricone at his dramatic best. --Heidi MacDonald

- Reviewed in the United States on February 12, 2025Very Pleased!
- Reviewed in the United States on October 27, 2024The CD is in excellent condition and I enjoy Ennio Morricone's music!
- Reviewed in the United States on January 11, 2015I work on a huge cattle/agricultural ranch and the last in-tact Mexican land grants in the San Diego area. I'm a security specialist and drive this fruited plain and flowing grasses, occupied with mountain lions, bob cats, hundreds of deer, turkeys, an effect almost as if a Jurassic Park environment surrounded me, as I drive around continuously. When I drive around, I listen to these fine soundtracks, because they interest me, I'm armed and to appear ominous to trespassers and "push it to the hilt environmentalists", I'm actually paid to do things that most folks would love to do. This music that I've just purchased ie; cello, violin and classical music, blends well into an area now recognized as to me "heavens gate". Considering I just published my first book through Amazon.com, "The Duck Theory" that just happens to be rife with the opposite or direct contrast to this present environment, it really places one's mind & soul into focus and a strong thirst for what is about to happen just around the next turn or corner. Maybe I'm getting too old, but the music from "The Mission", with Ennio Marricone, and of course the actor Robert De Niro, whom I admire, the cello from Yo-Yo Ma are in fact invigorating as hell. The soundtrack of "Boccherini: La Musica Nottorna dell Strade di Madrid, also a five star rating that has the sounds from "Boccerini" in the movie "Master & Commander" starring Russel Crow. All of which I can't fathom anything else as beautiful or as a part of a beautiful, absorbing enviroment minus the city clutter, clamor, criminals, politicians, street vendors, beggars, and man made things. To top off this whole episode, my son just bought me a Bose Soundlink Mini wireless speaker. At certain junctures I simply place that puppy on my 4X4 truck hood, turn the speaker on and play these newly purchased musical CD's and disappear emotionally into a self satisfying, breathtaking ambiance. Oh, the awe-struck of it all, because i'm alone and can't share it with my wife or friends is frustrating.
- Reviewed in the United States on August 12, 2024Amazing and beautiful backdrop but with sad consequences
- Reviewed in the United States on May 19, 2023The recording is amazing. I was disappointed that the jewel case was cracked. I know Amazon is trying to reduce their shipping costs/pollution, but I ordered 2 CDs, they came together in paper shopping envelope, no padding, both were cracked. I won't return recause I don't want to add to plastic waste. However, I will think twice before ordering CDs from Amazon again.

- Reviewed in the United States on January 9, 2024Loved the product
- Reviewed in the United States on May 21, 2019Beautiful Music. This disc brought me closer in Spirit to a very special man who died, in Syria, while serving; MSF (Doctors Without Borders), as an Orthopoedic Surgeon. He was driven by a conscience to take on a Dangerous Mission which cost him his life. He passed eight years after his 21 year long marriage left him widowed. His intent to marry me after his return was never fulfilled. I pray for his, now 16 year old son; whom I never had the pleasure of becoming step-mother to. This music is haunting, poignant, and moving.
- Reviewed in the United States on May 15, 2023The music on this is so moving and beautiful I can listen over and over.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excelente vinilo
Excelente edición en vinilo, sobre todo por la calidad de sonido, con una buena presentación y con funda interior de plástico para que llegue en las mejores condiciones. Solo se echa de menos que se presentase en funda gatefold
