Melancholic and wistful--very dreamy

"The soundtrack is one of the better ones you'll hear. Thematically it is similar to the music of the Christopher Reeve/Jane Seymore film Somewhere In Time. The music also sounds as if it hails from the era of French Impressionism. The strings and woodwinds I find achingly beautiful. I am transported everytime I listen to this sound track. Visions of the scenes of Venice from the movie can be revisited when listening to this soundtrack. I loved it more than the movie itself!"

This honest and beautiful Soundtrack, will break you heart.

"The Wings of the Dove, in it's self is a movie that changes the way you look at things. The soundtrack does the very same. When you listen, you can feel every moment. It Makes you look at life in a new way, while pinpointing moments that, in the movie, touched your heart. There is a haunting Theme present through out the score, that Brings out the sadness you feel for the Protagonist Milly Theal, and the distaste that you feel for the antagonist Kate Croy. If you loved this movie, The soundtrack will not disappoint you."

Extraordinary
