Beautiful music IS Beautiful Music......and this music is GORGEOUS. Wasn't even aware this RCA Quad treasure even existed. And with composer David Raskin conducting the New Philharmonia Orchestra .... a double treat.

As expected, the sonics are scrumptious and coupled with Michael Dutton's superb remastering, any music collector with a love of film music should definitely add this title to their collection.

An EASY 10!

Composer/Conductor David Raskin
