1. The Lovers
The Lovers
(1994) is one of the most romantic movies from HK. The soundtrack is wonderful as often in
Tsui Hark's films and stresses the peotic charm of every single frame of the movie. The
main theme here is a modern version of a very popular opera.
Music by James Wong, 1994, ed. Catch, 42 min., 16 tracks.

2. A Chinese Ghost Story
Unfortunately, the original soundtrack of this movie doens't exist. The
only way to get the sample here is to get one of the Greatest Hits album of James Wong. He
is indeeed responsible for most of the great music in the HK cinema. This sample is sung
by the taoist monk. Music by James Wong, 1987, ed. Rock Records, 39 min., 11
tracks. 702 ko/ 48 kbps/ 22 khz
3. Green Snake
Green Snake (1993) is maybe not Tsui Hark's greatest work. But there are
still some charming actresses, great ideas, amazing shooting, and a high sense of
romantism. The music score with Indian influence is of first class. This sample
corresponds in the film to the moment Joey Wong follows the scholar on a boat.

4. Tai Chi Master
Tai Chi Master
(1993) is a classic Jet Li movie and is full of good elements: great actors, great Kung Fu
and great music. Here is a sample of the score that has a real Chinese flavor! Close your
eyes and you'll be in China in no time.
1993, ed. Rock Records, 56 min., 28 tracks.
