could there be any roy webb in the offing? I really enjoy THE SEA CHASE and BLOOD ALLLEY which is really wonderful romantic music that deserves to have some kind of release in the future.
Bruce, are we ready yet for the next guessing game ?
The next release may or may not be of interest to folks here - certainly it would be of interest to ME. It's an album I produced several years ago that's been OOP for some time - it's really fun.
Would this be an album that you produced for Bay Cities or Varèse Sarabande? Does it have one vocalist, or many (or none)?
Looking forward to hearing the renovated "Demetrius." Such a score!

Is this a film score cd, or a show? A vocal cd of songs?

Could it be "Titanic – The Ultimate Collection" that you produced a while back?
(That was intended to be humorous, but come to think of it, I play that album's Main Title / Epilogue track from Alwyn's "A Night to Remember" quite often and I'm pleased to have it).

It is a vocal CD but all movie songs. With my usual glittering array of incredible singers.
Does it, perchance, feature a special appearance by . . .
. . . Zacherly?
I do believe it just might.
The original release was not on Kritzerland because Kritzerland hadn't quite begun - it was, however, the first CD to feature the Kritzerland name and logo, as it was a co-production, the rights of which have reverted solely to Kritzerland. The thing barely got out, which is why I thought it was high time it had a real release. I don't know that any film music fans knew much about it. But the songs are great, as are the singers.
Does anyone know the words sung at the end of the film? I can make out:
'Gloria in Excelsis Deo (Glory to God in the Highest)'
I would like to know those words as well.
Same for a number of choral segments in QUO VADIS which the dvd/BR does not close caption.
Another favorite epic of mine although much older is SIGN OF THE CROSS from 1932 - it has a good score by Rudolph Kopp (among others) with a number of choral passages. When originally shown on AMC - the roadshow version - had subtitles which included the choruses - very helpful . On the Universal dvd, none of the choral parts are subtitled . Closed captioning is often arbitrary - often foreign language passages in a English language movie are not tranlated - it will simply say "speaking in French" instead of bothering to translate.
Definitely a 20th Century Fox film and I agree it sounds Newman-ish. I'm almost tempted to guess a re-release of A Man Called Peter but that's still in print, isn't it?

I think you're right, CinemaScope Cat. I think it's a theme from the Peter Marshall early life in Scotland section of A MAN CALLED PETER. I'll have to check.
(Edit) Nope.....I don't think it is PETER. I keep associating this piece of music with memories of life on a farm and leaving and saying goodbye to family (and mother). There is a wistful, parting sadness about it.
I wonder if this could be from BRIGHAM YOUNG - FRONTIERSMAN......
