Synopsis

Product Description
To reflect upon the deep and complex emotions that gripped Americans on the home front and battle during World War II, filmmaker Ken Burns turned to classical music to underscore key moments and themes in THE WAR. The gravitas of a full orchestra, the lamenting sound of a cello, the intimacy of chamber music, and the uplifting surge of melody songs without words, both familiar and rarely heard combine to create a provocative expression of a nation in the midst of the greatest cataclysm in history.
