What a fantastic soundtrack this is! Beautifull melodies and arrangements, sounds very authentic. Love the orchestral parts played by real intruments for a change and the sound of the marimbas played by Evelyn Glennie really add something. But it seems a little odd that she is billed equal to Mark as composer, did she really co-wtite the main theme melodies? The sound and melodie of that horn in a few places is fantastic too as are the human voices in 'Onward'. And what to say about the beautifull cello, hope Mark will feature this intrument in his regular songs as well in the future. Of course those bison sounds I could live without but I'm sure will suit those scenes in the movie very well. Great little peace of work!

I love this beautiful soundtrack too.   It's a little gem.   Although I respect Evelyn Glennie as a percussionist and I realise that the Bison tracks are an important part of the film, for me the soundtrack, as a listener, flows much better without those tracks, so I have made an edited version omitting the Bison tracks.    Now I can listen to either version according to how I feel!     :)

I'm not sure that I will listen to these tunes every blessed day, but would like to mention that I was indeed enchanted by the sounding of a cello.

Who doesn't love a cello now and then? The musical world has so much to offer, think of classical music, jazz, blues etc.
And she's sitting in her Lusso, in the early morning sun.

The Cello is played by the wonderful Caroline Dale, who has also played live with David Gilmour, playing Comfortably Numb among other songs :o
Knopfler, Oldfield and Gilmour is all the guitar I need.

Got my copy today.  Anyone knows if different versions / singles / promo cds of this soundtrack out there?
My idea of heaven is a place where the Tyne meets the Delta, where folk music meets the blues.
