	Music of the Heart (1999): Meryl Streep, Aidan Quinn, Angela Bassett, Gloria Estefan - PopMatters Film Review
		At least, thankfully, Music of the Heart doesn't sink to the level of Mr.
		Music of the Heart conveys well the excitement of bringing kids to music and music to kids.
		I spent ten years of my life as a music educator, and the thought that music education might be cut from the school curricula is inconceivable to me. My beef with Music of the Heart is that I wish it had been less polished and slickly told.

	Music of the Heart
		The Music of the Heart is derived from electrocardiogram (ECG) data, actual digital recordings of the electrical signals of the human heart.
		This 'heart music' created by museum-goers is different from the HeartSongs above which were 'interpreted' by a composer (i.e., chords and rhythm were added by the composer on top of the melody created from the data).
		Heart music you would hear at the museum exhibit which is based solely on the raw data sounds something like this:

	CD Baby: FLETCHER HARRIS: Music from the Heart
		"Music From The Heart" seemed to be the perfect title for my debut CD because each of these musical journeys have a unique meaninig to me and a special place in my heart.
		As the title and soft pastel colors of the artwork imply, Fletcher Harris’ debut album, “Music From the Heart,” is a gentle, soothing collection of original piano solos.
		The music is not flashy or flamboyant, but the simplicity of the pieces underscores the sincerity of Harris’ approach to composing and playing.

	CNN - Review: 'Music of the Heart' hits all the right notes - October 28, 1999
		"Music of The Heart" is based on the true story of Roberta Guaspari, a teacher who -- when the funding for her violin program was stopped by the New York public school system -- refused to accept that she'd have to give up teaching her inner-city students.
		Bottom line, "Music of the Heart" is an inspiring film that should cross generational lines to entertain adults as well as many of their teen-age and even younger offspring.
		"Music of the Heart" opens nationwide on Friday and is rated PG with a running time of 123 minutes.

		What’s most interesting about Music of the Heart, the against-all-obstacles, real-life story of a doggedly determined violin teacher in East Harlem, is that it exists at all.
		But Music of the Heart is about the deification of Guaspari via her onscreen surrogate, Meryl Streep.
		On occasion, the rough outside world intrudes on her oasis of music and discipline, but nothing stops the indefatigable Roberta, who stages a highly successful benefit concert to provide private funding when school budget cuts threaten what has become her life’s work.

	Music of the Heart (Wes Craven): Meryl Streep Angela Bassett (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
		Yet, Craven is the man responsible for Music of the Heart, a film completely devoid of slashed faces, lethal stabbings, and deadly fingernails.
		There is much to carp about Music of the Heart, from the misuse of Angela Bassett’s considerable talents to the overabundance of obnoxious pop rhythms in a film that extols the immeasurable worth of classical music.
		Music of the Heart was inspired by the Academy Award nominated documentary Small Wonders (1995).

	Music of the Heart
		The musical snobs trash Tchaikovsky as a mawkish sentimentalist, a shameless crowd pleaser not deserving of the company of Beethoven and Mozart, but these people must have stone where their arteries converge, for there are places in the musical heart that only Tchaikovsky has dared enter and touch.
		Like many kids, my first exposure to classical music was through Tchaikovsky, and for this reason alone I am eternally grateful (and also most willing to defend his honor in a bare knuckle contest with any Mahler fan).
		Unexpectedly, comes the kind of free-flowing music you find figure skaters gliding to, and this time the bassoon is in his element, merrily singing away.

		Yes, Music of the Heart is directed by Wes Craven, the veteran shockmeister responsible for over 20 horror films including such blockbusters as the Nightmare on Elm Street and Scream series (Scream 3, incidentally, is due out February 4th).
		Music of the Heart, although (unintentionally) scary at times, is his first radical departure from the genre.
		The main problem with Music of the Heart is that it's devoid of drama, making it an extremely difficult film to pigeonhole.

		Music of the Heart is not that much of a story teller.
		MUSIC OF THE HEART, the story of violin teacher Roberta Guaspari and her fight to save a music program in East Harlem's school system, is based loosely on the 1996 documentary SMALL WONDERS.
		Guaspari believed, as did her principal Janet Williams, that studying music and art, in this instance the violin, teaches children discipline and provides them with a sense of self-worth and that the arts should not be treated as frills but rather an integral part of a child's edcuation.

	Music from the Heart
		Music from the Heart is Scream director Wes Craven’s most violent, goriest thriller yet.
		Unfortunately, the makers of Music from the Heart are unable to surmount the problem. The story is both a fish out of water tale and the common one of the little people overcoming all odds (including City Hall) to emerge triumphant.
		The film’s score is also part of the problem, relying too much on contemporary source music on the one hand and, on the other, too much of the orchestral music is the swelling goop that has become so drearily common. And I could detect hardly any classical music at all, except for the “live” performances.

		He arrived in Tucson in 1977, and he boasts a musical background as diverse as Maryott's, having played all manner of percussion instruments in straight-ahead jazz, folk and rock 'n' roll bands, and with everyone from blues guitarist Rainer Ptacek to Native American flutist R. Carlos Nakai.
		Their music is a combination of the familiar and the unfamiliar, designed to chart a course through the unknown but to draw on the experiences of the listener.
		Clipman and Maryott know their music might be superficially labeled, for lack of a better category, as part of the genre known as New Age.

		Almost as infuriating is the positioning of an 'N Sync/Gloria Estafan duet as Music of the Heart's theme song--an unlistenable ballad opens and closes a film about music appreciation.
		Based on the Oscar-nominated documentary Small Wonders, Music of the Heart stars Streep as Roberta Guaspari, a divorced mother of two sons who develops, at the urging of Brian (Aidan Quinn), a man she met in high school and encounters again later in life, a violin program for Harlem gradeschoolers.
		When a few of Roberta's graduates return to strut their stuff for the new batch of students, they are conveniently the children we met earlier all grown up.

		To be fair, Music of the Heart (partially inspired by the 1996 documentary Small Wonders) serves its purpose quite nicely.
		Still the music is good -especially the final concert -and the peformances from Streep,Bassett and Cloris Leachaman as Streep's mother are admirable.Anonymous but capable direction is in the hands of horror maestro Wes Craven -his first movie outside that genre
		The 5 star reviewers on here ought to be ashamed of themselves for settling for such cartoony realism; better yet, they and the these out-of-touch moviemakers ought to actually go spend some time studying their subject matter, the actual daily war zone that is the contemporary American inner city classroom.

		A concert performance by Mark O'Connor, Itzhak Perlman, Arnold Steinhardt and Isaac Stern, among others, is glorious, both musically and in its symbolic triumph over the vision-deprived decision of a school board out of touch with what children really need.
