Bermstein: Backgrounds For Brando

 

Julius Caesar

Bernstein: Backgrounds For Brando
Dot DLP 3107
1958

From the back cover: Elmer Bernstein, who here conducts the music of noted film composers, is himself a distinguished writer for the medium. His own motion picture scores include an Academy Award nominee, "The Man With The Golden Arm"' "Desire Under The Elms" (Dot album DLP 3095), and the epic "The Ten Commandments" (Dot album DOP 3054-D). The versatile and youthful Mr. Bernstein, who is also an accomplished pianist, is equally at home in the popular and classical fields, and his achievements in both are indeed notable.
