Notes & Personnel Info |  | The Christmas season is a perennial juxtaposition of the old and the new. Accordingly, the blockbuster Robert Zemeckis film THE POLAR EXPRESS blends a children's book by Chris Van Allsburg, the classic recordings of Bing Crosby's day, and state-of-the art computer animation into a seamless, organic whole. On the soundtrack, new compositions by Glen Ballard and Alan Silvestri coexist with such timeless classics as "White Christmas" and "Winter Wonderland". Here the former tunes become instant classics by association, as the latter gain up-to-date relevance in a new context. Frank Sinatra and Aerosmith's Steven Tyler are seldom heard on the same album, yet here they both are, united by the spirit of Christmas. While some Christmas recordings can be bland and overly familiar, this album is anything but that. THE POLAR EXPRESS is the perfect accompaniment to the blockbuster movie, but it also works as a great collection of Christmas songs, from the timeless to the contemporary. Reflecting a child's sense of wonder, excitement, and adventure, it may well become a holiday classic itself. |
