This month's "Album of the Month" comes from a favorite of mine, Victorian Romance Emma. Emma only received two soundtracks, one for each season. With Emma being set in Victorian England, you can already expect the "Pride & Prejudice" tone and style of the music. The album is put together by Kunihiko Ryo, who has a colorful personal history himself. Even with the heavy piano opening, the album features everything form acoustic guitars to harpsichords, making it a great, relaxing listen.
Track of Note: 05 - Menuet for Emma
I was close to picking the opening track, Silhouette of a Breeze, but "Menuet for Emma" made the cut. Who knew a take on a French dance, set in Victorian England, by a Japanese composer would give you Emma's personality in a theme.
