Absolutely without question. You can actually listen to the entire Quartet album for free on Spotify before you decide to buy https://open.spotify.com/album/1wBuLruSZJx2Izf2ZnaKmz?si=5kzqY5-yRFCOVgU6jrMVKg And for good measure, the Quartet Basic Instinct is there too: https://open.spotify.com/album/73ftiIj8z1a3ykgtpVhC9c?si=5Qsi43nhQh6eU_zXqbEHxg Arpy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bespin 8,472 Posted August 25, 2020 Share Posted August 25, 2020 I finally bought a used copy of Jaws re-recorded by the Royal Scottish Orchestra. I love so much their Superman re-recording (more than the original recording, I don't know why). I'm currently discovering many other re-recordings they made over the years, I simply love them!

It definitely seems to be a compilation, the things I tried so far don't sound crap at all. But it's great for me because not only do I not own any of these stuff, I either haven't heard them outside their films, or haven't heard them at all but would like to and suspect I'll like them.

Start with VERTIGO- fantastic recording followed by TROUBLE WITH HARRY, MARNIE, 7th VOYAGE OF SINBAD, THE DAY THE EARTH STOOD STILL and ofcourse PSYCHO But dont forget NORTH BY NORTHWEST although done by another orchestra but expertly conducted by Joel McNeely, TORN CURTAIN will disap-point becuase of poor recording accoustics so avoid it.

Marian Schedenig 8,164 Posted August 25, 2020 Share Posted August 25, 2020 McNeely's Citizen Kane is a Botnick recording, I believe? It sounds stunning in any case. Between this, Herrmann's own bits on Decca, and Gerhardt's pieces (including a stunning Salammbo aria), I'm content. Amer 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Naïve Old Fart 9,491 Posted August 25, 2020 Share Posted August 25, 2020 The liner notes for the McNeely TDTESS, said that the Theremin on the original score was "out" by one third of a note.

It can be out by as much or as little as you like, just like any non-fretted string instrument (or I suppose also a fretted one). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
