Sale begins today, December 23rd and ends January 5th! Hurry limited stock remains! http://screenarchives.com/title_detail.cfm/ID/5785/ELMER-BERNSTEINS-FILM-MUSIC-COLLECTION/    Posted:   Dec 23, 2014 - 9:02 AM     By:   OnyaBirri   (Member) Why don't you just break them up and sell the discs individually? That way I can get "Tocatta for Toy Trains" without having to spend a hundred dollars and end up with 11 CDs I don't want or need. Thank you for your consideration.    Posted:   Dec 23, 2014 - 9:21 AM     By:   LeHah   (Member) Why don't you just break them up and sell the discs individually? ... Why are you asking a store to break down product they only sell and distribute?    Posted:   Dec 23, 2014 - 9:22 AM     By:   George Komar   (Member) Why don't you just break them up and sell the discs individually? Because each disc does not have its own case. The 12 discs are in three 4CD clamshell cases, and all of the documentation is one hardcover book that accompanies the three cases. The Toccata can be purchased on its own for $4 at SAE: http://www.screenarchives.com/title_detail.cfm/ID/235/BERNSTEIN-ELMER-CHARLES-AND-RAY-EAMES/    Posted:   Dec 23, 2014 - 10:06 AM     By:   jpteacher568   (Member) Why don't you just break them up and sell the discs individually?

Lukas Kendall explains in the description that they can not sell the scores as individual cds.    Posted:   Dec 23, 2014 - 10:07 AM     By:   jeff1   (Member) The individual discs have also been available digitally for years: https://itunes.apple.com/gb/album/elmer-bernstein-miracle-toccata/id491624873 but the box is an absolute steal at this price.    Posted:   Dec 23, 2014 - 10:28 AM     By:   OnyaBirri   (Member) ...

We really do need Xmas in July!    Posted:   Dec 23, 2014 - 11:04 AM     By:   nerfTractor   (Member) For a limited time only the Film Score Monthly release Elmer Bernstein's Film Music Collection is 50% Off. Sale begins today, December 23rd and ends January 5th! Hurry limited stock remains! http://screenarchives.com/title_detail.cfm/ID/5785/ELMER-BERNSTEINS-FILM-MUSIC-COLLECTION/ Bought this at full price years ago and it was worth every penny. What a great bargain at half price.    Posted:   Dec 23, 2014 - 11:25 AM     By:   drivingmissdaisy   (Member) HOLY CRAP! Anyone who doesn't have this should GRAB IT NOW! Yavar I second that. This set is wonderful!    Posted:   Dec 23, 2014 - 11:35 AM     By:   OnyaBirri   (Member) *cough* Rationale of a sociopath! *cough* I haven't committed any sociopathic acts in years.    Posted:   Dec 23, 2014 - 12:06 PM     By:   MikeP   (Member) I paid full price for this son of a bitch, and man it was worth it. GRAB this one if you don't have it.    Posted:   Dec 23, 2014 - 12:16 PM     By:   Thgil   (Member) *cough* Rationale of a sociopath! *cough* I haven't committed any sociopathic acts in years. That makes one of us!    Posted:   Dec 23, 2014 - 12:17 PM     By:   Yavar Moradi   (Member) I gotta admit even though I've been enjoying mine for years now, I'm still a bit jealous of the people who are able to get this monstrosity for under $100! Damn! That's $8.33 PER DISC! That's $7.14 PER ORIGINAL ALBUM (because four of the LP programs fit on two of the CDs)! And that's only if you count the magnificent hardbound book for FREE! FSM has offered some fine deals in their day, but I think this might take the cake as their best deal ever. Just a word about the content: Torn Curtain, To Kill A Mockingbird, The Ghost and Mrs. Muir, and Bernstein's final re-recording, Kings of the Sun, are the highlights for me in this set. But even many of the things that aren't *perfect* are still really good and in some cases the best available music from a score, ie. Thief of Bagdad. I really hope that gets a complete re-recording using the original orchestrations some day, but until then the Bernstein album is really, really good...aside from an awful singer for "I Want to Be a Sailor" but since I hate the song anyway* it's no great loss cuz I just program it out! Yavar *seriously, I'm usually a completest about things but if said "complete" re-recording were actually to leave off every single instance of this theme in the score I would be totally happy. It must be the most frickin' obnoxious thing Miklos Rozsa ever wrote (perhaps by design, I know). Too bad the INCREDIBLE Sailor's Song at the beginning couldn't have been used more in the score...    Posted:   Dec 23, 2014 - 12:20 PM     By:   johnjohnson   (Member) For that price, the boxset is a bargain.    Posted:   Dec 23, 2014 - 12:31 PM     By:   Solium   (Member) I gotta admit even though I've been enjoying mine for years now, I'm still a bit jealous of the people who are able to get this monstrosity for under $100! Damn! That's $8.33 PER DISC! I guess it's risk vs rewards. I ordered a 1000 limited edition score once that sold out in a week. I really didn't want to miss it. Just a few months later another label re-pressed it! Then again plenty of titles never get re-pressed. One can hold out hope it sticks around for years and is discounted, or miss out altogether.    Posted:   Dec 23, 2014 - 1:13 PM     By:   OnyaBirri   (Member) Tempted to buy this for 2 or 3 discs and then sell the others individually for 10 bucks a throw.     General Discussion: For a limited time Bernstein Box Set is 50% OFF!!!    < 1 2 3  > >>  Go to page:  1 2 3 4 5   First Post    General Discussion • Trading Post • Non-Film Score Discussion  Profile • Preferences • Community Rules • Help/Contact • Search Board You must log in or register to post.   Go to page:  1 2 3 4 5
