Free Music Notes for Rudy: Original Motion Picture Soundtrack
Free Music Review: Oscar Performance!
Hit: 5 Stars
I can't believe this beautiful soundtrack did not get nominated, let alone not win outright. Forget the cheezy movie that it was linked to (Sorry Rudy! I know your a neighbor but its only a two-star movie.), the sound track should be considered on its own merits.My 18 month old son will not go to bed with out it. My wife, an Indiana U. grad, even loves this music. BUY IT!
Thanks Jerry!
Free Music Review: Totally Inspiring - Masterpiece
Hit: 5 Stars
This is one of the best soundtracks I have ever listened to. The violin theme, and oboe solos are truely moving. I have listened to it hundereds of times and it still gives me chills. Take my word for it - this soundtrack is worth every penny you pay for it.Free Music Review: Inspiring and great to listen to
Hit: 5 Stars
This soundtrack is just one of those feel good soundtracks that you like to listen to that gets you hyped. Other movies have used the themes in their trailers (or inside the film itself) and really, Goldsmith did a superb job composing the score. Even if you do not like orchestral music, you would like this soundtrack.Free Music Review: "Rudy, Notre Dame an inspirational score...Jerry Goldsmith!"

This is not just another sports story, human interest is the theme, and football is the game. Director David Anspaugh takes this to the highest plain...many people are involved in Rudy's life and he touches each one of them, just as he's about to do now...and Jerry Goldsmith's score (one of his best) puts you in that very sensitive and caring mood.Goldsmith is a master of melody with shades of heartfelt feelings, not to mention he can swing the other way and give "dig your heels in" percussion, brass and power. From the opening track "MAIN TITLE", simply a sweet and beautiful theme, interwoven with musical underscoring in every cue. Many, not all scores can really get inside your head ~ "The Thorn Birds" (1983), by Henry Mancini comes to mind, he was one of the first composers to really give you melody within a score, complete and full, lots of heart and sincerity. Goldsmith proves without a doubt he's more than capable...just listen to "WAITING", slowly building with wind instruments, strings blending with tubular bells and brass answering the call..."TO NOTRE DAME", the irish will love this warm and tender almost sublime melody, the main theme once again faintly appears, you're drifting thoughts of the many students who previously occupied the halls of this great institution of education...Goldsmith's cue is arranged as a suite, combining all themes into one memorable experience.
Hats off to ~ Alexander Courage and Arthur Morton (orchestration), Robert Townson (executive album producer for Varese Sarabande), TriStar Pictures and our composer, conductor and producer...the legendary ~ JERRY GOLDSMITH!
Total Time: 36:48 on 10 Tracks ~ Varese Sarabande VSD-5446 ~ (1993)

Hit: 5 Stars
This CD is great in many different aspects, it is musically tastefull, but very exciting and powerful to listen to at the same time. "The Final Game" is one of the most inspirational songs I have ever heard. Some other tracks are very peaceful and something I can goto bed with. It is a great CD that draws immeidate emotion to the listener. I recomend this to anyone that loves music, or if you love just getting pumped up by music.
