All Music Guide - John D. Buchanan
This fifth international studio album from the Kiwi songbird is the follow-up to 2009's Winter Magic and is a collaboration with legendary composer Ennio Morricone. Produced, arranged, conducted, and co-written by the maestro, it sees Westenra lending her dulcet tones to some of the most famous songs from Morricone's 50-year film-scoring career as well as tracks especially written for the album, and providing her own lyrics to fit timeless instrumental pieces like "Gabriel's Oboe" from the film The Mission.
