Miklós Rózsa - Ben Hur Complete Soundtrack Collection

Review by Keli Adams

The Ben Hur Complete Soundtrack Collection by Miklós Rózsa is a stunning musical masterpiece that captures the epic grandeur of the classic film. The album features over two hours of music from the original score, including previously unreleased tracks and alternate versions of familiar themes.

Rózsa's sweeping orchestral compositions are lush and majestic, evoking the drama and spectacle of the film's iconic chariot race and other epic scenes. The album also includes hauntingly beautiful choral pieces and delicate solo performances that showcase the composer's versatility and skill.

Listeners will be transported back in time to the golden age of Hollywood cinema, as they experience the full range of emotions and themes explored in the film. From the triumph of the human spirit to the power of redemption, the music of Ben Hur Complete Soundtrack Collection is a timeless tribute to one of the greatest films of all time.

Excellent Score by the Master Rozsa. Thanks for the upload. Out.

When I want to bitch and moan about my life, I think about some ragged guy being mailed to a cross .

dotndede21

When we're all gone with time, Miklos Rozsa's music will increase with substance and recognition. I cannot praise the melody and the man enough. A wonderfully warm being who was inspired by God for his biblical scores. My favorites are those, and not forgetting El-Cid, but Ben-Hur is a masterpiece, the film and the his score.
