Notes
The world premiere of the complete Carmine Coppola score (both of them!) from The Black Stallion - the widely-praised Francis Ford Coppola big-screen presentation of the popular Walter Farley novel, directed by Carroll Ballard, starring Kelly Reno and Mickey Rooney.
An exhaustive search produced not only the complete score as heard in movie but also a powerful, big orchestral score by Coppola that was never used with original versions of the island ride sequence, snake and rescue scenes being dynamic never-before-heard highlights!
This fantastic 3CD set also includes cues by Shirley Walker as well as a re-mastered presentation of the original 1979 United Artists album.
Original album artwork is featured plus colour reproductions of the fabulous (also unused) original production paintings by the legendary Bob Peak.
Everything presented here is in crisp stereo from the complete multi-track session masters, including all ad-lib percussion overlays. This massive, popular score finally gets spectacular release it deserves!
Carmine Coppola and Shirley Walker conduct.
Special Collection release limited to 1500 box sets!
