As befits an American movie set in France, this score starts off by quoting the French national anthem; fortunately, Michael Giacchino quickly turns off the cliché tap and gets the fun started. The composer, best known for his work on Alias and Lost, shows he can do light and nimble--and elegant, too: not many animated/kiddie movies have scores that evoke vintage Henry Mancini ("Losing Control"). "Wall Rat" is a good example of Giacchino's MO: It begins with a slightly melancholy melody played on the cello; that thread soon gives way to flutes and piccolo violins, which of course evoke the scampering of little feet--and that's when the bongos come in. Actually, those delicious bongos pop up regularly, flavoring the jazzy feel of "Cast of Cooks" or the tango-style "Special Order." Even when Giacchino uses that universal signifier of all things Gallic, the accordion, he does it sparingly ("A New Deal," "Ratatouille Main Theme") and with flair. And of course, Giacchino throws everything but the proverbial kitchen sink in the sprawling "End Creditouilles." Note that this instrumental CD starts off with the quirky pop song "Le Festin" (the feast) by the wonderful French vocalist Camille. --Elisabeth Vincentelli

Bought this for my friend who collects vinyls. He loves turning on his record and enjoying the quality of music in whatever he is doing and he really loved this one. He also loves Rats so he was super excited to have heard the whole soundtrack from Ratatouille.

Deliciously Delightful!

Reviewed in the United States on August 10, 2007

As a food lover and an admirer of Paris, to have the two come together in one film is a dream come true. And what better genre of movie for this to happen than an animation, helmed by the old wisdom of Disney and the new talent of Pixar. I will definitely watch the film when it gets released here in Australia, but I got my hands on the score as soon as it was released.

I recall first getting to know Michael Giacchino through the score of THE INCREDIBLES, another Disney/Pixar masterpiece. I thought his music was quirky, light-hearted and expressive, but nonetheless did not impress me much. This time around, Giacchino has a brilliant story/medium on which to write his score, and he took every advantage of it. Frenchy, exciting, appetizing and at its heart - touching - Giacchino ought to be very proud of his achievement for RATATOUILLE. Indeed, I am a proud owner of it and I dare say this would finally get Giacchino a nod for Best Original Score come Oscar time next year.

"Le Festin", performed by Camille, is a fantastic opener and mood-setter. Camille's a great French chanteusse, and this song is entertaining and uplifting. I wouldn't be surprised if this song got nominated for an Oscar (Best Original Song). The theme found within "Le Festin" populates the entire score in different variations - tango-ed, slowed down/accelerated, jazzed up - it's all there.

As for the music, I find it difficult to impart to you anything more about it, other than it has your usual rich orchestration and interesting choice of instrumentation. Perhaps let me try telling you what it reminds me of: I always wanted a CD with that Parisian sidewalk cafe feeling; one that would give me a unique, indescribable feeling. Accordians on a breezy night, chattering that gives you the sense of company but never intrusively loud, soft ember glows emitted by Federation-style lamps, waiters bustling about in the most prim and proper of manners and gastronomically enticing food. RATAOUILLE conjures all these. Above all, it gives me such great pleasure listening to this CD - I'm sure you'd enjoy it just as much as I.

If you were lucky enough, such as I, to have experienced the magic of Disney's BEAUTY AND THE BEAST, and happen to recall a particular scene in which Lumierre, Cogsworth, Mrs Potts and Chip presented Belle with her dinner and the genius "Be Our Guest", and loved that - then you HAVE to get RATATOUILLE.

Three words from moi: "C'est tres bon!".

It'll pick you up, and in some cases, bring tears to your eyes

Reviewed in the United States on July 9, 2007

It shouldn't be surprising that such a charming and clever movie is matched by a similarly attractive score.

Definitely worth a purchase, the disc features songs that are playful, reflective, jazzy... sometimes all at once. As another commenter rightly noted, one of the songs -- "Anyone Can Cook" -- is particularly notable for how it tugs at your heartstrings and evokes the more sensitive moments towards the end of the film.

In contrast, "Le Festin" (the opening track) is an delicious and quite hummable ditty of a theme that'll have you smiling every time.

Oh, and listen to that amazing trumpeter saucily shine through in the jazzy-and-multi-mood'd End Creditouille (the credits-music that kept nearly all theatregoers in the show I attended quietly in their seats 'til the very last moment)

So, given that I clearly love so many of the tracks on this CD, why only four stars? Alas, a number of the tracks just don't have that repeat-listenability thing going for them. It's not a CD I'll regularly listen to from start to finish.

But, oh, the rest of the tunes! Such a pleasure, bringing back great memories from the film. They'll be listened to again and again.

Perhaps anyone can cook. But not everyone can make such engaging compositions and arrangements, and for that, I salute Mr. Giacchino :)

Great French-inspired soundtrack.

Reviewed in the United States on January 25, 2017

Verified Purchase

As with any movie soundtrack, you would appreciate it more if you watched the movie. This is as it gives you context. (My young kids like to play the guessing game as to what scene we're listening to). But the scores stand on their own credit, and are very well orchestrated and exciting.

The motifs are interwoven throughout every track, and a good balance and range of emotions is present through voicing and timbre.

The soundtrack is very French--thanks mostly to the calculated use of the accordion--and I really love the opening vocal number (though I have not a clue of what is sung). Probably something to do with romance, I would guess.

Easily-to-listen-to music for all who like animated movies and different music genres. And the more I play it, the more I enjoy.

This is an enjoyable score

Reviewed in the United States on July 11, 2007

Verified Purchase

This is an excellent score from Michael Giacchino. The first two tracks capture the romance of the setting of France perfectly. Camille has a sexy singing voice on the track "Le Festina". "Welcome To Gusteau's" is a warm and inviting track. I love the accordion playing here. I love the jazzy sound of the track "Cast Of Cooks" The sax playing is cool and slick. I love the frenetic pace of the tracks "100 Rat Race" and "The Paper Chase" "Remy Drives A Linguini" is a very fun track about the relationship between the two main characters. The music featured in the ending credits is sensual. It has a tango like sound. This score is so much fun to listen to.

Michael Giacchino is the next John Williams

Reviewed in the United States on February 13, 2013

Verified Purchase

I'm not going to say the title of this review is definitive. You may feel otherwise. But for my money Michael Giacchino has gifts similar to John Williams in his ability to set the mood and tempo for a scene in film and to create musical motifs for each character. Of the many soundtracks I own I would say 90% of them are John Williams. Since Giacchino has been doing film work I've already purchased four of his sound tracks. I expect to buy many more.

As for the product quality, I really couldn't tell that it's what Amazon calls a "disc on demand." It looks just like a disc I'd buy in a record store (kids, ask your parents). French and English lyrics to the one song on the disc would have been nice.

Otra muestra más de lo bien que le sienta a Pixar su colaboración con Michael Giacchino. Esta banda sonora pertenece a ese selecto grupo de maravillas donde me quedaría corto en palabras para definir calificarla, es Magistral.
Ya tenía la doble edición limitada en vinilo de Mondo pero quería tener la versión en CD. Lo compré se segunda mano a un vendedor externo de Amazon (momox). El envío llegó antes de la fecha prevista, bien embalado. El CD en muy buenas condiciones.

Glorious

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on July 25, 2012

OK; it's a sound track to a Disney Cartoon. - and an over stereotypical Disney view of the French too; accordions, berets and all . . . .

And like all movie sound tracks, most of it doesn't make a lot of sense without the film to go with it . . .

But . . . but ! . . . what ever it started out as; that first track by Camille (and that may be a made up name)

- is simply gorgeous . . . oh, I feel like the "Critique" guy in the film - allow me to gush a little;

This has got to be the ultimate way to get a garden barbi to liven up a little; shove this on - modestly - and pass round the veno; it's conviviality on a plate - er . . CD

That one track stands as a "gorgeous sound of summer" in it's own right . . .

Twee ? Disneyfied to the hilt ? - yes . . .

But if you have the capacity to let go of all that, and go with the flow; it's fun !

So it sort of parodies the film in real life; a glorious surprise really can come from anywhere, even a Disney sound track. Bon Appetit !

Great soundtrack on a great quality vinyl

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on August 21, 2021

Verified Purchase

The sound quality of this is incredible, as are most pressings from Mondo. The soundtrack itself is fun and lively and a great listen. The record is beautiful, it is clear with green, red and blue splatter and the artwork on the high quality sleeve is stunning. I would consider this a must buy for fans of the film and it is now one of the favourites in my collection. I did have to return the first one I received for a replacement as it arrived damaged; but that was due to amazon not packaging it properly and is not a reflection of the quality of the record.

The soundtrack is incredible from film regardless but the quality of the vinyl just helps elevates those songs.
The design on the vinyls are incredible and I’ve not got any other vinyl in my collection that is that artistic. Would recommend to any fan.
