Description

Big Screen Sound is a rich CD compilation drawing from some of the most celebrated orchestral scores in cinema history. John Williams is well represented across multiple Star Wars entries — highlights include The Imperial March and Yoda’s Theme from The Empire Strikes Back, Princess Leia’s Theme from Star Wars, and the Parade Of The Ewoks from Return Of The Jedi. Beyond the galaxy far, far away, the disc reaches into classic Hollywood, featuring Bernard Herrmann’s propulsive Main Title from North By Northwest, Erich Wolfgang Korngold’s swashbuckling Adventures Of Robin Hood suite, and the stirring Finale from Kings Row. A fine survey of the golden and modern ages of film scoring, gathered in one place for enthusiasts of orchestral cinema music…
