Hollywood's Greatest Hits: Volume 1

"Broadly and brilliantly performed, beautifully engineered. Telarc and the Cincinnati Pops offer here a fun-filled anthology of Hollywood favorites...Thanks, Telarc, for putting together this collection artfully." - High Performance Review

Erich Kunzel leads the Cincinnati Pops in a spectacular recording of music from the silver screen. With this release, the Pops tackled a selection of blockbusters from the Golden Age of Hollywood to the modern era. Included are many familiar works ranging from the tender themes of Gone With the Wind, Exodus, Doctor Zhivago, Love Story and The Summer of '42 to the exciting music of Captain Blood, Jaws, Rocky and Goldfinger. Leading off the disc is the 20th Century Fox Fanfare - a tune very familiar to veteran filmgoers. An informative 16-page CD booklet containing a wealth of film and film music lore accompanies this release. Capsule write-ups cover literary sources, storylines, production notes and biographical material.
