The Snow Queen - Ballet Redefined

Harriet Schock
"The music of Randall Michael Tobin for the Snow Queen was wildly colorful, varied and moving, much like the ballet, itself. It was a perfect marriage of the art of dance and music. It's astounding to discover it is his first musical work in this genre. Surely it will not be his last."

Product Description
An enchanting and memorable contemporary ballet score that blends signature compositions with orchestral and ethnic elements to create a contemporary winter classic. One might describe this production as Hans Christian Andersen meets Cirque du Soleil!

The Snow Queen- moving music.......2000-04-01

Randall Michael Tobin is truly gifted. He has created music that really shows the personality of each of the characters in the ballet. Even so, the music stands alone. Though you may not have never seen the ballet, you can still enjoy this music. Even if you don't think you like ballet, you will enjoy this CD, from the jazzy crow, to the poignant Snow Queen herself.

Majestic music.......2000-03-14

The music of The Snow Queen is rich, lush and elegant, yet accessible. With melodies that are lyrical and highly varied, the music stands on its own apart from the live stage performance through many repeated listenings. Having seen the show, several pieces easily bring back visual imagery of the ballet, most notably the playful bump & grind of "The Crow". Tobin provides a whimsical tapestry of many colors with his orchestrations. Hans Christian Andersen would approve.

Music to take you where you want to go!.......2000-03-11

I have listened to the music from The Snow Queen - Ballet Redefined by Randall Michael Tobin. This music is very alive and keeps me interested and listening throughout the CD (not like listening to classical music that puts me to sleep). Mr. Tobin has created a wonderful world where you can create anything you want while listening to his compositions. I have a copy of the CD in my car and play it when I want to relax from the stress of life.

Some music will go down through the ages. The music on this CD fits into this catagory. It will be something that people of all ages can enjoy and appreciate. I bought one of the CD's for my neighbor this past holiday season. He announced to me the other day that he will have to purchase another copy as he has worn out several of the tracks already! Wow!
