While it's not strictly a collection of only classical music, EMI's Classical Chillout, Vol. 2 features soothing, reflective pieces from composers in the classical and film score worlds, including Thomas Newman's "Any Other Name [From American Beauty]," Rachmaninoff's "Rhapsody on a Theme of Paganini," Yann Tiersen's Valse d'Amélie (From Amélie) and Elgar's Nimrod ['Enigma' Variations]. Beethoven's 'Moonlight' Sonata Op. 27 No. 2 II: Adagio Sostenuto, Myers' Cavatina (From the Deer Hunter), and Brian Eno's "An Ending (Ascent)" are some of the other standouts from this relaxing album, which bridges the gap between classical and contemporary composers of all kinds. ~ Heather Phares, All Music Guide
