info		 I think this is probably the most majestic project ever carried out by a musician from the demo-scene!

Jesper Kyd (Silents, Kyd/Balle Productions, etc.) composed this music which was then performed in Budapest by 110 musicians from the Budapest Symphony Orchestra and Choir - and mixed & edited in Denmark at major Copenhagen studio "RadioHusets Concert Hall". The music is dark, ominous and epic. After a few listens the music really starts to reveal it's true qualities as the themes and melodies really just keep growing on you, the more you hear them!

The CD also contains 3 bonus tracks; two of the best tracks of music from the original "Hitman - Codename 47" game (which are otherwise not available outside the game), and one brand new unreleased music track from Jesper Kyd, produced in his studio in New York.

Some of the tracks on this CD also use electronic instruments together with the orchestral, to mix up the sound and keep it fresh. This gives a more varied and pleasurable listening experience; as the whole album plays for about 1 hour and 5 minutes.

The Hitman2: Silent Assassin soundtrack was nominated by GameSpot.com in the category of best soundtrack of the year. It was nominated in 3 categories, best music on Xbox, PS2 and PC, out of 2500 games released in 2002.

review		 It is obvious that a lot of thought went into the scoring of this game. The music for Hitman 2 is as cinematic as the game itself. It sets the mood and builds the tension. It is very nicely done and a must have for gaming fans, especially fans of our hero, 47.

review		 I'm impressed. There are many games on the market that have fairly standard soundtracks. This is not one of those soundtracks. As has been stated, the music has a tremendous depth of mood and tension that really contributes to the immersive feel of the game. The first time you hear that choral opening of the main theme you'll get shivers down your spine and an itch in your trigger finger - guaranteed. The sheer cinematic feel of the music is excellent.

review		 The tendency of moving to a quality game-making is well seen today. This including perfect programming, quality design and of course sound production. The Hitman 2:SA soundtrack stands among the best game soundtracks we, gamers, ever heard.It is really of great influence, bringing the lovely, deep sense of game atmosphere. The most inspiring, maybe, is a Japan Mansion theme and a Main Title, of course. The most sincere thanks from us, the fans, to Jesper Kyd, Budapest Symphony Orchestra and Choir and the sound producing team of Hitman 2 for the perfect work!

review		 The score for Hitman 2 is about as impressive a body of work as ever I have heard. That it's for a game is yet more impressive although it stands on it's own two feet as an amazing collection of themes and music not just in the gaming world but in the whole world. As a longstanding lover of score music I can honestly say that the Main Title for Hitman 2 is among my favourite pieces, against some fairly stiff competition. That music of this quality is being composed for games is a boon to gamers everywhere.

review		 I think this is by far the besy music i ever heard on a video game. The strings and violins come together wonderful, A must have for anyone who loves music.

Best music I have ever heard.

review		 I like the thing that there's music for every situation in which 47 can be (action, "almost detected", exploration and every chapter new music).
It keeps the game interesting for more time (not every time the same music etc.).

review		 I LOVE THE MUSIC! the melodic sound of a symphony that projects heroic sounds and intense moments from parts in the game! it is simply awesome. though I wish I could get the full version of "47 makes a decision" which is my most favorite track song instead of the 29 second clip.
I've looked EVERYWHERE on the Internet and all I can find are those annoying clips. I'd love to order the hitman albums on the Internet but my parents don't like to order things from the Internet go figure.
Anyway I love the music its awesome.
