Tron Legacy Movie Suite

Tron Legacy Movie Suite

Music by Daft Punk

The long awaited sequal to Tron had to have a score that was both electronic and ground breaking, just as the original film score was. With an army of synthesizers we have a movie suite that melts the walls between orchestra and electronic sound. Each cue builds on the previous as we travel the arteries of musical roads often attempted, but rarely realized. If you can not stand synthesizer music, you may want to pass on this suite, but...since so many composers are utilizing electronic music these days, those lines become ever so blurry. Can you say Zimmer or Jablonsky? This is a monumental work that should be listened to and shared. With a timing of 31:45 you should enjoy this one.  -MJ

The Ten Commandments Movie Suite

Ten Commandments Suite, The

Music by Elmer Bernstein

This epic movie suite from 1956 has a spectacular pedigree that conveniently unfolds for the listener to take in.  Undoubtably the main themes will be familiar to you, since they have been well played concert pieces for years, but if not familiar, then you are in for a real treat. The fanfare that opens the suite is the backbone that all the other cues are built upon, yet this is a connected composition with all the qualities one would expect from a symphony or tone-poem. With a timing of 29:23, I think you should enjoy this one.  -MJ

Taras Bulba Movie Suite

Taras Bulba Movie Suite

Music by Franz Waxman

Although this movie suite is from 1962, it brings a well connected composition to the party that is both timeless and thoroughly enjoyable. Once you listen to this, it is virtually impossible to get the "Riding Theme" out of your head, yet my research tells me that this movie was a dramatic love story first, action flick second. Well, if the music is any indication, the historians may have it reversed. Flowing from the opening notes, there are many tender moments, but they tend to bridge the action together cohesively. Nominated for an Academy Award for best score, the timing of this movie suite is at 28:36, not too long, nor to short, it falls in that sweet spot for listening. I hope you enjoy this classic.  -MJ
