Have you seen the film?

[Sigbjørn]

What about the Night at the Museum scores? I’ve read good things about those, but never managed to get into them.

Of “recent” Silvestri, I find his score to Allied quite good in all its simplicity, sugar coated love theme on autopilot included. This, together with the minimalistic tension music and slow buildup makes the music able to keep my interest for the album’s running time. I’m also a sucker for good big band re-recordings, and the tracks here are above decent. Haven’t yet seen the film – any good?

[Sigbjørn]

Looking good, Thor! 😉

Would love to get more from MARK OF ZORRO than that one suite Roy Budd recorded. And I am still wondering why there has been no proper re-recording of CAPTIAN BLOOD besides suites.

Agreed on both accounts. Some choices for re-recordings by Stromberg and the likes baffle me when we have gems like these that are mostly unavailable.

Nerd? I’m a connoisseur of music. 😉

I’m not good at destilling favourites into lists, but here goes:

Korngold: The Adventures of Robin Hood
Walton: Henry V
Korngold: The Sea Hawk
Chaplin: City Lights
Korngold: Captain Blood
Bliss: Things to Come
Steiner (& Hupfeld): Casablanca
Newman: Wuthering Heights

Newman: The Mark of Zorro

Honourable mentions (released shortly after the cut-off year 1948):

Waxman: Sunset Boulevard
Herrmann: On Dangerous Ground
Rozsa: Young Bess

Where Eagles Dare 🙂

[Sigbjørn]

I guess many of Rozsa’s historical epics kinda qualify.

And what about Gould’s Exodus? I’ve never seen the film.

[Sigbjørn]

It’s excellent!

Carl Philipp Emanuel Bach, symphony Wq. 179.
