Customer Reviews:
A romp worthwhile for the "film-score-buffs" in all of us!!.......2002-01-06
Anyone who has ever read any of my reviews, know that I'm a complete "film-score-buff" nut...my favorite past time is collecting and listening to soundtrack compilations...and this is where my latest review comes in.
Silva Screen Records does this better than anybody...a 4-CD-Set featuring 58 tracks of unforgettable scores from the leading composers of the past Century...no one, I mean no one can provide the quality of sound, texture and substance of The City Of Prague Philharmonic Orchestra...Westminster Philharmonic Orchestra...The Royal Philharmonic Orchestra...The Philharmonia...The Milan Philharmonic...The London Screen Orchestra...each a self of culture into its own.
This compilation released in 1996 represents the best of the best...can only be described as a "collectors dream"...one not to be missed...so many highlights and stand outs...from one spectrum of comedy, romance, drama, suspense, action, adventure...to the other of westerns, horror, war, thrillers and Hollywood heroes.
A special thanks to the following who gave so much to this project ~ Reynold Da Silva(executive producer)...David Wishart(executive producer)...James Fitzpatrick(associate producer)...David Stone(associate producer)...and to one of my favorite(conductors/arrangers/orchestrators) Nic Raine...Paul Bateman(conductor)...Kenneth Alwyn(conductor)...Andrew Greenwood(conductor)...Tony Bremner(conductor)...Carl Davis(conductor)...Derek Wadsworth(conductor)...and as always Silva Screen comes through with another musical celebration with flying colors...this time "100 Years Of Cinema"...and what will the next 100 years bring...one can only hope Silva Screen will do the same honors.
Total Time: 232 minutes on 58 Tracks ~ Silva Screen Records STD-5006 ~ (1996)
Disappointing.......2000-10-09
The music is clean, skilled and rich, but it is lacking the extra bit of passion that I personally like in movie music. It is pleasantly bland rather than rousing.
