A beautiful later score from the legendary Miklos Rosza – a masterpiece that draws on all of his many years in film, yet serves things up with a more subtle approach than before! There's a sense of space here that we don't always hear in Rosza – almost a pausing between the notes, creating a sense of reflection that really expands the gentle sentiment of the tunes – while still building to a bit of drama at a few key moments. Nothing here is overdone at all – and the soundtrack is a great reminder that in the serious film score world, away from the hits, the mid 70s could be a very golden period! Titles include "Providence", "Sonia Et Le Saint Suaire", "Feuillages", "Poursuite", and "Valse Crepusculaire".

A dramatic soundtrack to this Douglas Sirk film!

This guy's neither the Sabu who played congas on Blue Note, nor the long-haired hard rocker from later years – but Selar Shaik Sabu, an early Indian film star heard here on a dramatic recording from the 40s! The core part of the CD features a young Sabu reading selections from Rudyard Kipling's Jungle Book with backings composed by Miklos Rozsa – sort of a pre-Disney version of the material, set to a relatively serious score. The remainder of the CD doesn't feature Sabu – but includes a reading of The Thief Of Bagdad by Hugh Gray, with backings again by Rozsa – and the score to Black Narcissus, composed and conducted by Brian Easdale.
