"This cd is honestly the most beautiful entrancing music one will ever hear. This is truly Preisner's masterpiece in my opinion. I saw the movie on T.V., but they didnt show the credits so i went and rented it just to find out the name of the person who created this otherwordly music...it's that good. This film itself isn't much to talk home about, but this cd is SO worth buying. BUY IT!!!!! Unless you cant hear...you will love it!"

"this disk complete the movie in all aspects,
the sound , the rethemes are all here.
some parts repeat them selves in couple of variations
but still it is a good soundtrack."

Preisner's best music yet

"I got to know the music through the film. Kieslowski's film is a masterpiece indeed but at the end I could not take off my mind this great music that accompanied the scenes. Preisner was unknown to me and I found myself looking all over to find Van Den Budenmayer's music, just to find out that he was Preisner's creation. Since then I got to know Preisner's music pretty well through the Colors trilogy, the Requiem, The Secret Garden and the Quartet. Although I find his music great in every aspect, there isn't another work that could outshine Veronique. The only problem I find is the 30 min duration of the CD but expensive things come in small boxes...."
