I heard one song " In the Chess Court " and I had to hear the rest of the cd. The music played to the scenes so well. Great job....
Wheeeee

One of the most emotional string pieces, I think; sounds like crying. Great for listening while doing homework.
Absolutely amazing.

The movie used the songs in sutch a way that as soon as you hear the song the moment in the movie comes to you. Great movie, great soundtrack.
Amazing Score

Such a beautiful score. There are the drums which give us a sense of combat or tension and it fits the those scenes well but we can very clearly hear the tragic undertones in most of the songs that portray the significance of what the characters do in the movie. The soundtrack was created perfectly to suit the over theme of the movie. Well done!
Great!

Tan Dun made the perfect soundtrack to accompany a truly beautiful film. Without the music, the film would be missing one of its many important elements. This is without a doubt one of the best film scores available! Buy it if you enjoy music! (If you don't then what exactly are you doing on iTunes??)
A Haunting Film

Absolutely beautiful cinematography and a gorgeous soundtrack. The music just blends into the beautiful scenery and story of the movie. Even with this wonderful soundtrack muted, the movie would still be beautiful just to watch. :)
A beautiful score for a beautiful film
