Upgraded to FLAC. See links below.
Two very different film music albums, coupled here with the flimsiest of excuses: them both being by British composers.
Arguably, FAR FROM THE MADDING CROWD has remained Richard Rodney Bennett's most distinguished film score, presented here in
the original soundtrack version. It's powerfully emotional music at times, quite surprising to come from a composer
whose countrymen just cannot seem to remove their broomsticks from their asses (I'm there a dozen times a year. ;))
The second CD is a 1970-ish sampler (actually, a 1980-ish re-packaging) by Ron Goodwin, conducting "his" orchestra (a pick-up band, no doubt).
It contains some particularly lively renditions of selections from his own scores, as well as a few truly disturbing arrangements of classics by
other composers, including a Lawrence of Arabia "Bol�ro"(!) (His Ben-Hur cue, especially, is like no other version of R�zsa's music).
Enjoy! :)
