"Well you’ve achieved a first - Tiomkin’s music has never been heard in such defined detail before.Your radical ‘set-up’ is most fascinating - a striking use of stereophony - you have a wonderfully expansive audio spread.The Prague orchestra is really on top form. It’s quite something to finally have all this music, as the OST album was something of a disappointment.The score is now revealed in all its true glory.This is one of the truly great film music recordings!"
(Film Music Historian and Journalist DAVID WISHART on hearing the first edit of the new recording).
