John Mauceri made several Philips recordings of music from the movies, often music with the strong flavour of Hollywood. This collection extracts some of the best of those moments and ranges from quiet and introspective – try the Elgarian ‘Jurassic Park‘ excerpt or the romantic ‘Cinema Paradiso’ – to thrilling, spatial and scary: ‘Star Wars, King Kong or The Omen’. Something for everyone here!
