“Le Reve”        “Benoit Jutras' Le Rêve is an impressive achievement, deftly mixing choirs, strings, brass, Asian plucked and bowed instruments, rock band staples, and techno loops and samples into a coherent whole. Some of the melodies may ring a few bells in the score aficionado's mind, but it's a minor quibble when one looks at the production values and the sheer talent in presence. It is impossible not to be blown away by the finale of "Dreaming", where bass drums make hearts tremble, choirs accompany the singer, and strings let us imagine a sweeping vista, all culminating in nothing less than an orchestral and choral orgasm. Yet another powerful reminder that some of the best film music nowadays can be found outside of the film arena. .. Soundtrack.net
