Product Description
To fans of the music of the Big Band era, Horace Heidt's name and music is like an old friend. Heidt's glory years as a band leader stretched over four decades and paralleled the growth of the then burgeoning "new media" of the day-radio and television. Heidt's radio show popularity had reached it's heights in the early 1940's: this album features some of his best live performances.

      2 out of 5 stars Sounds bad.......2006-10-13

      The edition of this CD that I have only contains the first CD listed above. So this review is an assessment of those first 11 songs.

      My interest in Shostakovich continues to grow, despite these unprofessional recordings. The sustained notes that conclude the "Waltz (from 'Golden Mountains')" are overblown and horribly out-of-tune. The vocal solos are delivered with just as much subtlety. In all honesty, much of this collection sounds like a remedial high school band that had booked just two hours of studio time.

      Overall, pretty crummy sounding.

      4 out of 5 stars Would have been one of Hollywood's best........2004-01-10

      Shostakovich's film music is usually disparaged when compared with his concert hall compositions. Of course it isn't up to those standards. Most of the movies weren't good & some scoring assignments were actually propaganda punishments for his "formalist" & "decadent" creative transgressions, & none ranks with the Eisenstein/Prokofiev collaborations. But try comparing this music with what came out of Hollywood during the later of these years. Alex North is rightly praised for "Cleopatra," Franz Waxman for "Taras Bulba" & "Peyton Place." Also John Green's "Raintree County." These are hardly film classics. Miklos Rozsa, a consummate professional, turned out memorable scores for some very expensive clinkers. Such examples are legion. Brits William Walton & Malcom Arnold arranged concert suites of their movie music. & I personally despise Maurice Jarre for composing that insidious earworm, "Lara's Theme."

      This double CD box is indifferently programmed & contains no liner notes; you'll have to sort out the history yourself. But the performances are fine - a few are on higher-priced releases. The music itself ranges from cabaret to waltzes to dramatic battle action. In "New Babylon" the Krafty Komposer demonstrates the sardonic wit he often used to mock his Soviet Kulture Kummittee Kumrades.

      If you like Shostakovich's main music, check out this sampling of his motion picture scores, his little know music. I think you will be suprisue.
