It would take a Greek, Vangelis, to write music commemorating the greatest Greek of all time, Alexander the Great. This music follows him from his early youth, to his incredible conquest of Persia and attainment of India, to his death, and brings out what his contemporaries must have felt, seeing this magnificent man flash across the world like a giant meteor.

If you're a fan of Vangelis music (or you saw the movie) then you more than likely will enjoy this album too.

I don't know what's best about Alexander...The Music? Phenomenal. The Story? Riveting. Colin Ferrell? hehehe. Vangelis has another masterpiece with this Soundtrack. The story is moving, but it's the music that sends chills down your spine. I have never, in my life, come across a collection so chilling, yet so amazingly beautiful. Even the simple notes of the piano bring tears to the eyes, and longing in the soul... In a word? Hypnotic. In a sentence? The best cd I've ever heard.
I bought this album not knowing what sort of music I was going to get. I've not seen the movie. Can't tell you why I was drawn to it unless it was Angelina in the picture. But, .... it's a really fantastic CD! Love the music. Should have bought one sooner!
I love the flowing music in this soundtrack. It added so much to the movie that I had to have this CD. I put it on and just zone out all my stress. Great Music!
