Based on David McCullough's Pulitzer Prize-winning biography, the miniseries is produced for HBO Films by Playtone.

Be warned that the mixing for the title track on the CD isn't the same as what you here in the show.

Their work complements the efforts of David McCullough through his book and the people in the production of the movie, the actors, the cinematographers and all the others including Tom Hanks and the others in making of this series for which the soundtrack was created. John Adams (HBO Miniseries). Not only does the music accomplish these things, but it truly stands on its own. This sound track the work of composers Rob Lane and Joseph Vitarelli really evoke the emotions of the era and the people in their works. The music truly honors and complements the Founding Fathers, Founding Mothers and Founding Children for the sacrifices they made.

5 star movie. If it wasn't for John Adams and Thomas Jefferson, we'd probably still be a British Colony. This country needs a 21st Century John Adams or Thomas Jefferson to lead this country, this country has no leadership. Have a box of kleenex ready for the last chapter. This was the best movie I've seen in a long time,ever since I saw The World's Fastest Indian, another good movie that movie critics missed. Excellent movie, thank God for John Adams and Thomas Jefferson.

The series is excellent and the soundtrack is superb. I can recommend this without reservation. I can't add much beyond what's already been added by the earlier reviewers. It does indeed have a distinctly American feel to it, and some of the tracks have elements that will/could bring you to tears they're so moving (e.g., Declaration of Independence, Letter to Jefferson, etc).
