Band Of Brothers Movie Suite

Band of Brothers Suites I/II
Music by Michael Kamen

This 2001 HBO mini-series was scored by Michael Kamen, a composer well known for his work on Highlander and other respected scores. The enormous amount of music he wrote for this project spans orchestral cues, choral cues as well as title themes that carry the weight of this production. Due to this, we are fortunate to have two distinctive suites for your enjoyment. The first movie suite only slightly reminds us of other War Picture suites with a full orchestra and strong military themes rushing toward a quick conclusion. The timing for this suite is 17:41. Much different than the usual War Picture Suite, the second movie suite is a solemn yet lush orchestral arrangement mixed with a touch of voices at the beginning and ending. It is quite beautiful and very touching to hear. The timing for this suite is 22:02.  Although titled Part I and Part II, they are separate works of pleasure that complement one another. These should keep you busy for some time, but as always, I hope you enjoy them.  -MJ
