Naxos has released SHAKESPEARE OVERTURES-1 by Castelnuovo-Tedesco. The composer also taught composition at Los Angeles' Music Conservatory, and mentored many Hollywood composers. Included in these were Henry Mancini, Nelson Riddle, Andre Previn, John Williams and Herman Stein. For me, these overtures need a few listens to get really familiar with them, but they are certainly written in a Hollywood film score style. I recommend you get this. 8.572500 There is also a volume two.

Natebro: You like the Violin Concerto disc more than the overtures discs?

I think these are all available in better performances than Naxos.

A lot of Mario's music (written for films like RETURN OF THE VAMPIRE, CRIME DOCTOR'S COURAGE, MARK OF THE WHISTLER, NIGHT EDITOR, PRISON SHIP, I LOVE A MYSTERY, TWO-MAN SUBMARINE) became an important part of Columbia's music library, and was reused in pictures like CANNIBAL ATTACK, CAPTIVE GIRL, THE WEREWOLF, MY NAME IS JULIA ROSS, EARTH VS. THE FLYING SAUCERS, TRAPPED BY BOSTON BLACKIE, 20 MILLION MILES TO EARTH, PIRATES OF TRIPOLI, THE MILLERSON CASE, CRY OF THE VAMPIRE, and many more.

I think these are all available in better performances than Naxos. I only have the two Naxos volumes but I enjoy them quite a bit. But I’m intrigued: which other performances do you prefer over them, and why? Yavar
