I put this one on last night. This is another of these releases, like HOW TO MARRY A MILLIONAIRE, that is so "tuneful" that it sounds like a musical that is only lacking lyrics.

And there's so much of it!

I couldn't agree more wonderful tuneful score, MR Kaper was great at melody.

Kaper was versatile. Scores like this and Lili and The Swan are marvelous and yet he could also turn around and do THEM!

well that is what i love about MOST film composers and they should be admired for it, diversity or in your words versatility.

And even the main title from "The F.B.i."!

And then a magnum opus like "Mutiny on the Bounty"!!!

Gotta ask just in case Mr. K remembers:

Were there any piano pre-records for this score, like in LILI? Those in LILI were awesome, and I thought there might be some for the ballets.

Oh wow, I do not remember, sorry.

I was usually pretty obsessive about including everything available on these albums...for what that's worth!

Indeed you were*. I loved the Nat King Cole addition on RAINTREE COUNTY.

(I figured on THE GLASS SLIPPER it might have been space that prevented any more extras.)

Thanks, G.L.!

*Too bad you didn't do BOY ON A DOLPHIN, and issued the Julie London vocal!
