Free Music Review: A Score that Demands Your Attention
Hit: 5 Stars
This CD contains selections from the 1950's television series by the same name. The music was not only perfect for the series, it is just as spectacular by itself.Rodger's score is strong, demanding, and ever changing. The first track, "The Song of the High Seas," is a perfect example of a diverse style blended perfectly. The track begins strong, then hits hard, and ends with a very solid but noticeably lighter ending. It is a good track to show off the talent of every section of this orchestra.
It has been said that this CD is all march. That statement would be in error. "Guadalcanal March" is a good example of Rodger's ability to compose marches. However, on the opposite side of the spectrum, "The Magnetic North" is nothing like a march. That track ends with one of the most quiet, controlled endings that one might hear in modern music. There is a wide variety of styles on this CD.
Technically, the CD was recorded before 1972 in the A D D format. Those two facts made me hesitate before purchasing this CD. Don't let those two factors stop you from buying this CD. The recordings may be old, and in analog, but the CD sounds crisp and clear. You should have no trouble hearing the details of the music and enjoying this recording.
