FANTASTIC MUSIC!
The soundtrack to the HBO Miniseries "John Adams" is a fantastic one! Rob Lane and Joseph Vitarelli have both created a beautiful score, capturing the heart and soul of the miniseries. Lane's work includes the title theme, which is a fantastic piece that opens the miniseries, and is a great one to listen to on its own. His piece "Declaration of Independence" is fantastic as well. As for Vitarelli, his piece for the sea battle is great, hearkening to the music from "Master and Commander." Together, they have created a truly memorable score. If you enjoyed the HBO program, then you'll want this CD in your collection!
Grade: A

John Adams
This is an excellent series on how our country was founded and the values on which our country was founded. The series should be viewed by everyone from grade school age up. We watched the series on HBO and then purchased the series to view again. I would highly recommend the purchase of John Adams.

good listen
My wife and I are fans of the John Adams series and many HBO films productions. The soundtrack is well done and there is no doubt a lot of time went into crafting appropriate tracks.
It is important to keep in mind that a lot of the tracks are about tragic events and the composer does a great job of mirroring this sentiment. So, if you're looking for something light and airy, look elsewhere.

Haunting
I had tried to find out who the composer of this fantiastic music was from the beginning of the minisieries. I searched on the HBO website, carefully watched the credits over & over, & I can't tell you how excited I was when at the end of the series, I checked on amazon, and there was the sound track. It is one of my favorties , and I feel totally captures the essence of the story. I am sure John & Abigail feel the same way. I hope anyone looking for an uplifting soundtrack will consider it. I treasure it, and listen to it often.
