Everyone who disliked this song was on the Acheron

[alexanderfirmin]

One of the most underrated films of all time. And what a soundtrack!

[gerry]

I love how a film can bring promote classical music. Or even introduce it to people unfamiliar with it.

Sailing on into the endless sea. The ending gives me chills. These men were incredibly brave and tough.

Well Stephen, the bird is flightless?
-Yes
It's not going anywhere

[josemanuelfernandez]

I live in Madrid...it is the best you can hear in spring and summer nights. You feel Boccherini smiles near you somewhere in the dark.

Such a shame that we didn't get at least one more film taken from the series. The assembled cast were brilliant and we could have had more Boccherini and Mozart! Such a gem.

[VividMac]

One of my all time favourite movies. One of my all time favourite soundtracks.

A shame that they never made a sequel. This movie came out a few months after the first Pirates of the Caribbean and nobody remembers this movie which is a tragedy because while the Pirates movies are great, they simply do not compare to the gem that is Master and Commander.

[Chobittsu]

Can we all just appreciate for a moment that the photo they chose for the album has A MODERN BOAT moored next to the Surprise?

[NB]

NEVER a song fitted so perfectly a movie ending.

[justinmcnally]

Seriously one of THE BEST soundtracks in living memory...stunning!

[MRGTi]

From 4:14 to 6:30 is some of the most beautiful strings I've ever heard.

[NotAFirefighter]

I just spend 9:24 minuts of my life....but by god they have been the best in a long time.

[sauronbaggins]

Just can't stop listening to this. Boccherini is such an underrated composer.

[mariaheredia]

A masterpiece of filmmaking!…
I am just grateful to be alive to appreciate it!
Thank you! …Just Thank you!

[Ferreinuno]

The best sailing age ship's moveie you'll ever see. Actually very very historicaly correct.

[williambradley]

This is why we must assure that the arts are taught in our schools.

[thedynamicsolo]

It is so amazing to me, that these beautiful classics never die. Like the inspired word from above, they keen the emotions, move the mind, recall memories and take us to places we cannot physically go. They stand alone coming from the speakers or for a back drop for a film. Hail Boccherini and all who wrought the music that takes us to another place and another time.

[lalolara]

Wow, the Italian composers are masters. They are incredible with violins and every classical instrument really, in such a way that makes souls fly.

[HOLY_FRIJOLES]

This piece breaks my heart and lifts me up at the same time. Simply beautiful music.
