Editorial Review:

Amazon.com:
One of the more successful attempts by another studio (here Fox) to make a quality animated film on par with Disney was Anastasia. The music by David Newman and songs by Lynn Ahrens and Stephen Flaherty (the Broadway team that won a Tony for Ragtime) give the movie a sturdy backbone. From the Zhivago-gone-Broadway opening number "A Rumor in St. Petersburg" to the Oscar-nominated get-up-and-sing "Journey to the Past," the CD is filled with bright numbers, including low-key pop versions of several of the songs. The vocal talent is exceptional, especially Liz Callaway (Grizabella in Broadway's Cats) as Anastasia (Meg Ryan supplied the speaking voice). Bernadette Peters and Jim Cummings (doing a mean Christopher Lloyd impersonation as the speaking voice of the movie's heavy, Rasputin) offer solid support, with kudos to Kelsey Grammer as Vlad, the portly sidekick. The album's (and film's) star is "Once Upon a December," simply one of the most beautiful songs ever from an animated film. Using a waltz motif that is heard throughout the film, the song--with sparse lyrics--builds into a sweeping and memorable number. It will have your dancing princesses asking for repeats. The CD's liner notes include complete lyrics. --Doug Thomas



Customer Reviews
Average Rating: out of 5 stars

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Beautiful
The music is absolutely gorgeous. Liz Callaway has an extraordinary voice. David Newman, Lynn Ahrens and Stephen Flaherty do an amazing job with writing the music and songs. This is one of my favorite childhood movies and I still love to listen to the CD!


Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Anastasia Soundtrack
If you're a fan of the movie, you'll be a fan of the soundtrack. The score is very pretty, and Liz Callaway is a vocal delight. Track 8 - At The Beginning - is a personal favorite of mine.


Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Love it!
I love this movie and one of the reasons I love the movie is because of the music so this cd is perfect to listen to. Great deal, great cd.


Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Anastasia Soundtrack
If you loved the movie then you'll love the soundtrack, delightful and enjoyable. It arrived quickly and in beautiful condition.


Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - The world of Anastasia
Anastasia, though not a true story, is a beautifully orchestrated soundtrack. The vocals harmonize perfectly, with the rhythms and tempos generating an emotional link to the story. Amazing!
