Rahman (Bombay Dreams). Choreography will be released internationally in September 2004 (& in the U.S. early 2005). Sony.

 Great Pool Music November 15, 2008
Every summer I make a CD for exercising in my pool. I was looking for some Bollywood type music and came across Vanessa Mae. I love this CD, especially #4 Tango...
 Not what I was expecting June 4, 2007

I bought this CD several years ago even before it went on market in U.S., aftering finding out that she has a new CD coming out on her website. I was so excited that I ordered this CD from amazon.uk, paid twice the money too, as it was being released there several months before it was to go on sale in U.S.
However, after I listened to this CD, I was hugely dissapointed. While it has a great production value, orchestration, and showcases Vanessa-Mae's violin skills, I found most of the compositions to be nothing spectacular... and frankly, tedious... This failed introduction into Vanessa-Mae's work actually prevented me from trying out her other CDs for the past several years until now. For newcomers to Vanessa-Mae, I find her "The Violin Player" and "Best of Vanessa-Mae" to be immensly more superior CDs than this one.
Technically superb but the melody is not exciting... August 16, 2006
Vanessa Mae is an amazing violinist. Her notes literally dance and you can hear the spirit in the music. But I did not enjoy the music chosen on this CD. The tunes are not exciting.

GREAT MUSIC AND I LOVE THE SABER DANCE.

Definitely liked it. She's always been a great violinist. the improvement is in the background composition. the score with music by Vangelis is awesome and the rest of the tracks are amazing.
