Comment:

The old traditional movie music is BIG. Lotsa horns and drums and strings. Not to mention loud. Big themes performed by (mostly) big orchestras for BIG movies. I always had the feeling that kind of movie-music collection didn't exist, unless performed by som obscure Polish orchestra. And as far as I'm concerned it must be the originals. (Us movie buffs function that way.) So here it is. Starting with music from the first movie that had what we consider being a "real" music score.

I always loved Korngold's work!
