CD ReviewsGood original score, though better old melodies Juan Alberto Diaz Wiechers | Santiago Chile | 10/07/2002 (4 out of 5 stars) "As a matter of fact I bought this CD not as much due to Mr. Newman's original scrore, but since I liked very much the treatment of the beatiful Spanish song "La Violetera" in key moments of the film. Mr. Newman's music is very good, but the Spanish and Argentine music he used was much better. The performances of "The Tango Project" are superb. "La Violetera" is probably the nicest Spanish song, talking of a florist; it is widely known in its original version in Spain and Latin America, and moreover, came to international light thanks to Charles Chaplin's "City Lights" where it was the Leitmotif of the blind florist girl (a very adequate use indeed). The tango "Por una Cabeza" is probably the highlight of the score, because it is the piece danced by Al Pacino; unfortunately the other tango "Caminito", played by the orchestra at the restaurant, does not appear here. It is a petty. As a whole, I like the CD very much, especially the two performances of "The Tango Project", but just because they are more touching to my cultural heritage. Nonetheless, I praise both Mr. Newman's personal compositions as well as his perfect use of other's melodies." Contains a GREAT song Juan Alberto Diaz Wiechers | 01/18/2000 (4 out of 5 stars) "Por Una Cabeza is a great song. I could listen to it all day. This is the first cd I found with a good version of it." Nicely done, Thomas, nicely done. Joel Munyon | Joliet, Illinois - the poohole of America. | 08/15/2002 (4 out of 5 stars) "This cd is worth price of admission for one huge reason, the main theme music. It comes at us twice during our listening journey of Scent Of a Woman. It is likened to a kid finally learning to ride a bike for the first time, flying down his neigborhood road with a look of pride and surprise smudged neatly on his face. It is a delightful melody that will continue to stick in your mind for a long, long while. Other notable tracks on this score are tracks 45 in 25, Balloons, Beyond Danger, and End Title. This is a must cd for Newman fans and a very nice addition for any fan of film scores. Enjoy!"
