Free Music Notes for Battlestar Galactica: Season 3
Free Music Review: Another masterpiece!!
Hit: 5 Stars
Once again Bear Mcreary shines!! I thought nothing could come close to season 2'cd but I was wrong. Although this cd does not have standout tracks like "something dark is coming", "worthy of survival", or "prepare for battle." Tracks like "Battlestar sonatica", "Violence and variations", and "Gentle execution", stand on there own. This is a must have cd for any fan of the show. Buy it now!!Free Music Review: one word

Hit: 5 Stars
When I listen to this soundtrack, I am taken back to the best scenes of the season and it reveals what an integral part this music plays in making Galactica a great show to experience. Bear McCreary pulls off a stunning feat and provides the visceral foundation for the show, from the heart-pounding rescue in "Storming New Caprica" to the heart-wrenching grief at the return of "Refugees Return" to the lonely misery in "Someone To Trust". If you are a BSG or neo-classical music fan, or if you need some good instrumental music, this is it.Free Music Review: Absolutely stunning, and some of the best scoring for T.V.
Hit: 5 Stars
"Refugees Return" was the soaring movement that closed "Exodus II." That episode, and it's final scenes, were an achievement in both drama and sci-fi. McCreary rises to the challenge, and the music holds the emotion. You would be hard-pressed to find better string arrangements in film. "Violence and Variations" was the centerpiece for "Unfinished Business." More personal growth and drama than war or sci-fi, this episode told you exactly what separated "Battlestar Galactica" from other genre shows. Before, or since. And this track makes quite a document of the storm and fury of Life. Bear McCreary is quickly pulling away from the pack of T.V. composers. His character and situation themes are enduring and memorable. His use of percussion and varied instrument timbres gives him a unique signature. With his three "Galactica" releases, He joins Howard Shore and John Williams on my short list of favorites. Highly recommended as a gift or personal listening. I didn't like the novelty reworking of "All along The Watchtower" as much as other folks. But there is so much strong material before it that I overlook it in my rating.Free Music Review: BSG Season 3 soundtrack
Hit: 4 Stars
This CD is the bomb! Bear McCreary has still got it. This soundtrack contained new drumming sequences that evoke almost a primal feel. Unlike previous BSG soundtracks, the producer/editor has done a better job of balancing the upbeat almost Irish/Celtic sounding reels to the drumming to the tranquil and nearly sad sounding movements. It seems to bounce back & forth between musical extremes thus keeping the listener from either falling asleep or becoming too agitated from faster paced scores.I just hope he has done as good a job with BSG:Razor & there is a Razor Soundtrack. From just some of the music I have heard through the mini-sodes & preview teasers, it sounds to be yet another excellent score. Unlike other writers specializing in soundtracks, one can't really pin McCreary down by the sound of his scores as can be done with other composers such as John Williams or John Barry.
