    Rachel Portman is clearly an A-list film composer and, in my opinion, one of the finest all-around composers of any generation. She is an inspiration, and her music is an example of how film music can truly be great.

    I absolutely love Portman's works. The soundtrack for Chocolat is one of my favourites of all time.

    The splendor. It is interesting that not many women composers of music. But Rachel Portman makes honor. Have a lot of musical success.

    I have to watch this every once in a while. It's one of the best videos I've ever seen. Everything about it, the orchestra seeming to so enjoy what they're playing, the violinist who seems slightly amused by the energy of the conductor, and this real, deep, simple music. Yes, I like this video.

    I have never seen an orchestra sway to a piece of music like they did. They must have been really in "the zone".

    Absolutely beautiful and incredible! When I first heard the music in the movie "Cider House Rules" I was spellbound. Then I heard it in a "Pure Michigan" commercial and I knew I had to hear more!

    Love her work. Her music is so recognisable in movies. Like many other great composers that compose soundtracks you know almost instantly which composers made which soundtrack by just listening. I didn't know Rachel composed the suite for "Mona Lisa Smiles" when watching the movie, Yet it sounded similar to the soundtrack of the movie "Cider House Rules". When searching for the answers I was not surprised it to be from Rachel.
