A Superb Soundtrack
by Teri Franzen (NY USA)
This CD is a great compilation of jazz and classics from the era in which the movie was set. There are several piano solos on this CD but Track 5 is some of the most awesome piano that I have ever heard. I believe this is the solo from the scene where the Jim Carrey character discovers he can jam and it has resparked my own interest in playing jazz piano. Thank you! Additional songs include Spencer's clarinet solos and a couple of Nat King Cole classics that really round off the selection.

The Majestic Soundtrack
by Sherrell S Frederick-Seyarto (Los Angeles, CA, USA)
The music and the movie is definately something you will fall in love with. The music of yester-year takes you back to time when life was slower paced, and not so complicated. They couldn't have put two pieces of material together so beautifully, as the movie and this soundtrack. For those of you with music in your soul this is definately one you would want in your collection.

Great CD!

This CD is awesome! It's got great jazz, along with rock-n-roll piano tracks. The movie is just as great. If you like the big band jazz, there are some great tracks- lots of lead clarinet! The Spencer Wyatt Band is great! And if you haven't yet, go see the movie, it's great to bring back memories. Hope you enjoy! :)

An answer for a question from Texas
by Þórarinn Ævarsson (Reykjavik Iceland)
Music fan from Texas, Yes both songs are there and as strange as it may sound, those where the two songs that cought my attention when I saw the movie. The one with the clarinet is called "Stranger on the shore" while the one with the piano is called "Boogie Woogie Stomp" I believe. The soundtrack as a whole is flawless and I strongly reccomend it.

Excellent music from an excellent movie
by Thomas Hochmann (Albuquerque, NM)
"The Majestic" didn't exactly make a huge splash in the movie world, but it's definitely one of my favorites. One of the elements that made it so enjoyable was the great music throughout the entire film. That same music stands very well on its own in this album.
While The Majestic's music will not appeal to everyone, there's no denying that it has a certain charm. There's just something about songs like "Begin the Beguine" and "I Remember You" that sends the heart and soul back to a simpler time. To me, that's an enjoyable musical experience well worthy of 5 stars. If you like music with soul and emotional impact, definitely give this CD a whirl.
