Film Music of Hans Zimmer

Film Music of Hans Zimmer (2007) more music like this

by Hans Zimmer/City of Prague Philharmonic Orchestra/Crouch End Festival Chorus

Silva Screen Records specializes in re-recordings of film music, and the label usually employs a presumably non-union Eastern European orchestra, the City of Prague Philharmonic, to make those new versions of movie soundtracks. Then, Silva Screen generally lists the credit for the Prague on the back covers of its albums in small print, leaving the ...

The Essential Elmer Bernstein Film Music Collection

The Essential Elmer Bernstein Film Music Collection (2005) more music like this

by City of Prague Philharmonic Orchestra

The death of film composer Elmer Bernstein in 2004 made him an obvious choice for Silva Screen Records' "Essential" composer series (Gone with the Wind: The Essential Max Steiner Film Music Collection, The Essential Nino Rota Film Music Collection, etc.). Silva Screen is dedicated to creating new recordings (sometimes the first ever) of film music ...

The Star Trek Album

The Star Trek Album (2003) more music like this

by City of Prague Philharmonic Orchestra

Silva Records' collection of music written for the various film, television, and video properties that make up the Star Trek franchise (performed, as usual for Silva, by the City of Prague Philharmonic Orchestra) suggests a division between two composers not unlike that in the James Bond film franchise between Monty Norman, who wrote the original ...

The Six Star Wars Films

The Six Star Wars Films (2006) more music like this

by City of Prague Philharmonic Orchestra

Silva Screen Records specializes in new recordings of music from film scores, not the original soundtrack recordings, a fact not always clear from the titles and covers of its albums. When this album was first released two years ago, it was called Star Wars: Music from the Six Films, which might have confused some consumers. Now, it has a new ...

The Music from the Lord of the Rings Trilogy

The Music from the Lord of the Rings Trilogy (2004) more music like this

by City of Prague Philharmonic Orchestra

It is not surprising that when awards season rolls around, commercially successful films nominated for major awards also manage to attract nominations for their music, and that may help explain why composer Howard Shore won three Academy Awards for the trilogy of films based on J.R.R. Tolkien's The Lord of the Rings trilogy, although it does not ...

Film Music by John Williams

Film Music by John Williams (2006) more music like this

by City of Prague Philharmonic Orchestra

Reynold da Silva's Silva Screen Records has built up a considerable library of re-recorded excerpts from film scores by employing the City of Prague Philharmonic Orchestra, enabling the label to assemble various discs combining the material.

Film Music by Alan Silvestri

Film Music by Alan Silvestri (2006) more music like this

by City of Prague Philharmonic Orchestra

Just as film director Robert Zemeckis started out as a protégé of Steven Spielberg and always retained his mentor's taste for taking traditional movie formulas and expanding on them (albeit adding his own satiric edge) in such box-office smashes as Romancing the Stone, Back to the Future, Who Framed Roger Rabbit?, and Forrest Gump, composer Alan ...

Music from the Films of Steven Spielberg

Music from the Films of Steven Spielberg (2005) more music like this

by City of Prague Philharmonic Orchestra

Silva Screen Records, which specializes in re-recordings of film music, usually (as here) performed by the City of Prague Philharmonic Orchestra, has had occasion to consider the music featured in films directed by Steven Spielberg before, and this compilation draws from a similarly titled 1997 collection in its Hollywood Directors series, as ...

The Third Man

The Third Man (2003)

by Gertrud Huber/City of Prague Philharmonic Orchestra

Director Carol Reed's 1949 film noir The Third Man, based on a screenplay by novelist Graham Greene and starring Joseph Cotton and Orson Welles, makes many critics' lists of the best movies of all time. Not the least of the film's attributes is the score, which consists entirely of zither music improvised by Anton Karas. Karas' playing, and the ...

Film Music by Jerry Goldsmith (2006) more music like this

Film Music by Bernard Herrmann (2007) more music like this

by City of Prague Philharmonic Orchestra

Reynold da Silva's Silva Screen Records label has amassed a considerable library of re-recorded film music, using (no doubt for economic reasons) the City of Prague Philharmonic Orchestra.

The Greatest Cinema Choral Classics (2006) more music like this

Reynold da Silva's Silva Screen Records specializes in re-recordings of the scores of films, usually using the City of Prague Philharmonic Orchestra and, when choral parts are called for, Britain's Crouch End Festival Chorus.

The Incredible Film Music Box (2005) more music like this

by City of Prague Philharmonic Orchestra

Silva Screen Records devotes itself to making new recordings of old film music, usually employing the (presumably non-unionized) City of Prague Philharmonic Orchestra.

Comic Strip Heroes (2006) more music like this

by The City of Prague Philharmonic Orchestra & Choir and Crouch End Festival Chorus

The summer of 2006, like many a warm vacation season before it, witnessed an influx of caped and costumed crime fighters with supernatural powers at the multiplexes of America and the world. Reynold da Silva's Silva Screen Records, which specializes in newly made recordings of film scores, picked this season to assemble and release Comic Strip ...

Reel Love: The Cinematic Romance Album (2005) more music like this

by The City of Prague Philharmonic Orchestra

Silva Screen Records missed the usual Valentine's Day release target for this sort of album by a couple of months, but maybe the label was aiming for Prom Night instead. Or perhaps it doesn't matter when you put out an album of romantic music, since love can spring up at any time. Silva Screen specializes in re-creations of film music generally ...

by City of Prague Philharmonic Orchestra and Chorus, The/Crouch End Festival Chorus

Reynold DaSilva's Silva Screen Records has built up quite a library of music by having the City of Prague Philharmonic Orchestra (which presumably works cheaper than a name orchestra from Western Europe or the U.S. would) create new recordings of film scores, enabling the label to then recycle the material into thematic compilations such as this ...

Hollywood Stars: Music from the Films of Kevin Costner (1995) more music like this

by City of Prague Philharmonic Orchestra

The one oddity about this particular set is that the recording of Michael Kamen's "Prelude" from Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves is spectacularly clumsy -- it's a rare thing to hear the City of Prague Philharmonic Orchestra falling over their own musical feet in the way that they do here, especially when it comes to a score that they have returned ...
