- Comment NP: [b]The Illusionist[/b] - Philip Glass From an odd period in his film scoring career. Unusually lush for a Glass score, it's interesting to see his style crammed into short cues - [i]The Orange Tree[/i] is a highlight.

- Comment NP: [b]Othello Symphony[/b] - [i]Elliot Goldenthal[/i] Wild and crazy, but more accessible than the recent release of his early chamber works. An excellent distillation of the best bits of the ballet, which incidentally is still available from Varese Sarabande and very highly recommended.
