MY NAME IS ELSPETH (by Michael Kamen: The Winter Guest movie soundtrack)

SUMMARY:                                           RUNNING TIME: 4:16 Min.

Composer-conductor Michael Kamen devised this low-key theme for a 1997 Emma Thompson drama, The Winter Guest, that Alan Rickman directed. 

REVIEW:

For an instrumental, it’s exquisite.  The serenity imbued by Michael Kamen’s piano-driven melody is gorgeous.  Without any prior context, “My Name is Elspeth” poignantly conveys whatever meaning the listener wishes it to be.  This gentle track is absolutely recommended for relaxation, instrumental and/or classical playlists. 

BRIAN’S ODD MOON RATING:                             9 Stars

Note: Featuring Liz Fraser’s serene vocals, track # 11 of this album (“Take Me with You”) is also highly recommended.
