The Film Music Of Jerry Goldsmith
 

 

A very welcome commercial release of last years SACD demonstrator from Philips. This Telarc version makes available the same content as the Philips' disc but thankfully consolidates the openings to the TV and Movie Medley suites, which incorrectly appeared as separate tracks on the Philips disc.

As for content, this is a strong collection of Goldsmith themes which makes for an easy listen but for such a technology would have benefited from a more aggressive performance and perhaps the inclusion of more exciting material. However, Telarc deserve to be commended for making this music available to the masses with slick artwork and extensive linear notes.

Playable on conventional CD players
