Very soothing. <br /><br />And you're right--it does fit the story really, really well. People say the '05 adaptation is only about the characters' feelings and not their thoughts, but I think they're wrong. The story IS about what's going on in Lizzy's and Darcy's minds--and the soundtrack reflects that. Especially the first scene, where Lizzy is walking along reading her book and that "tinkling" sort of music is playing in the background. You can almost hear her thoughts in the music, if you know what I mean.

I'm going to get my mom to try playing it next time she visits -- she's much better at sight-reading than I.Hamlette (Rachel)https://www.blogger.com/profile/11961916847426233995noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1385233731099220276.post-43356185247058511452015-07-01T13:14:03.674-04:002015-07-01T13:14:03.674-04:00I LOVE this music.

I enjoy playing it, even though it's hard for my clumsy fingers to make the delicate, romantic sound I'm going for. ;-PEmma Janehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00215503772898813587noreply@blogger.com
