Review by Leopardeye:
Overall, this is a decent recording. Sarah Brightman's vocal talent transforms the music into imagination, hope, and brilliance. Although I only prefer to listen to a select group of songs from the 2-CD soundtrack, the score is surprising well written and non-repetitive, which is extremely rare for Andrew Lloyd Weber. However he had great inspiration, creating and writing the lead role of Christine, for Sarah Brightman.
