Summary: The Pacific 2010-07-09
Comment: What an awesome compilation of music. If this music doesn't move your soul and spirit of Patriotism something is WRONG with you. Seek help immediately.
The Pacific Theator of War was nothing short of Kill or Be Killed. No mercy was asked or given and unlike the European Theator of War, the soldiers in the Pacific didn't have one shelter, house, barn, or shed to stay dry in. It was cold, hot, wet, disease prone, and if wounded you had little chance. God Bless the United States Marine Corps!!!! I only wish I had been a Marine!

Summary: Great score! 2010-06-25
Comment: As I was watching this mini-series, I was struck by the emotionality of the main and end themes. So when I found this release, I had to have it just for those two tracks. The entire score does not disappoint in any way, shape or form. The piece accompanying Sledge's first action on Pelileu is heart-pounding.

Summary: Good Main Course 2010-06-24
Comment: There are three good tracks (out of 25) on this CD. (1,2 and 25). These are the main tracks from the series (Intro and Credits plus one).
The rest are OK. Not a bad purchase, but nowhere near as good and compelling as Band of Brothers soundtrack.

Summary: Brilliant also for what was left out 2010-05-18
Comment: I have not yet ordered the CD, but while watching the Pacific (electronically recorded), I would back up the frames just to listen to the stunning theme music. I'm not a musician, so at first I was surprised at how solemn each piece was. I expected more "war-like" music in a series about war. I mean, there are drums and French horns, but they're subdued. But the stunning beauty of the score and the way it gave such dignity to the men who had to go and do this tragic business impressed me. What I really noticed when playing back the episodes is that there is no music for many of the battles. I think this was especially brilliant and actually made the score more effective. The killing and suffering are so horrible that music would have made the fight scenes cliched. And then when you realize the musical score has kicked in again, it also invites you, the viewer and listener, to reflect on what you saw, and what you realize these young men went through.
But the music stands well just as music. It's haunting and noble and solemn: just plain beautiful. But if you are looking for rat-a-tat-tat military style music to get your heart racing or to practice your fight moves, this is not the soundtrack for you. This soundtrack is for the grownups.
