"This album is a masterpiece and beautiful beyond belief, everyone should own this for their private collection. Several inspiring themes throughout, performed by the Polish Radio Orchestra and conducted by Tadeusz Wicherek, with the Warsaw Female Choir. A stand out - "BEFORE YOUR EYES" lyrics by Elzbieta Biekuszko with music by Kaczmarek is so beautiful, with liner notes listing the poetic hymn lyrics, just wonderful.The entire album is enthralling and haunting, almost mesmerizing in content. It is difficult to compare to any other score I've heard recently, very meditating and relaxing for an evening by the fireplace with a good book. An album certainly good for the soul - almost brings a tear to the eye. Don't pass this one up - "The Third Miracle"!Total Time: 50:08 on 21 Tracks/ Milan Records - 73138 35899 2 (1999)"

Simply Beautiful

"This soundtrack is stunning in its simplicity yet powerful in its ability to inspire and transport. The music is haunting but not melancholy. It will touch all your senses as well as your heart and soul. I advise even those who may have not seen the film to purchase this soundtrack, you will not be sorry. This soundtrack is the best since the soundtrack for the Thin Red Line. Pop in the CD, light the candles, turn down the lights, sip your favorite wine, relax, let go....."

Not one of Kaczmarek's best ..

"One of the previous raters called this CD "beautiful beyond belief," an opinion I can't share. There are only a few melodic passages, but the rest are annoying, monotonous Cello pieces and a few equally annoying very high-pitched choir pieces. One of Kaczmarek's best film scores is probably the one for "Unfaithful" - which is truly "beautiful beyond belief." The "Third Miracle" can't hold a candle to it. Personally, I was very disappointed and did not think it was worth the money."
