Album Description US only 180-gram 2 LP pressing.This realistic portrayal of one of the bloodies battles ever stars Martin Sheen and Jeff Daniels. The soundtrack features the compelling and original score by Randy Edelman. His accompanyment creates an emotional ride that complements and enhances the Gettysburg experience. Edelman's score plays a huge role in Gettysburg, which chronicles the major battle of the U.S. Civil War. His evocative, emotional and courageous work helps shape this film and the feeling gained that is still alive and well today.

Superb score for a superb miniseries October 3, 2008 I've watched about half the series so far and that was enough reason alone for me to buy the soundtrack. (spoiler alert) The highlight for me was "Fife and Gun" when Reynolds died. The music from that piece has an almost European feel to it. From listening to the samples it looks like they have Edelman's orchestral score on this CD while all the marching band music and music that was supposed to have been played by characters on screen is on the other soundtrack disc. I enjoy orchestral scores better so I'll be sticking to just this album. Your opinion may differ.
Wonderful soundtrack August 26, 2008 I puchased this sound track to use as background music for a ceremony. It was perfect and added feeling and meaning to what was being read at the time. It also makes a great easy listening CD for those who just like to chill to something.
Majestic, Moving, Stirring, Epic...the list goes on and on! May 15, 2008 I can't think of enough positive things to describe Randy Edelman's score for the amazing film GETTYSBURG. It's a must listen-to.
Wonderful Musical Score March 10, 2008 As I have said in other reviews of motion picture musical scores, it is great to hear composer's writing motion picture scores, than scores written in an attempt to hit a top 40 rating. This musical score is a wonderful musical production that will take you on an epic journey to the days of the civil war. I wish I could tell you by what symphony peformed this piece, but rest assured it is performed by a very talented full instrumental group. Randy Edelman created this masterpiece for those enjoying a more artistic musical experience.
Inspiring and grand! January 7, 2008 No matter what your thoughts may be on the movie, "Gettysburg," this soundtrack is beautiful and inspiring. A great recording which I have played in the company of guests, who requested copies, which I later gave them as gifts.
