WILLIAM WALTON: Richard III, Henry V, Spitfire Prelude (Olivier, Walton) @320k

Link upgraded to FLAC. This is my own rip.
Please add to my reputation if you download my material. Thank you!

Some of the finest film music written for historical dramas (Shakespeare & WWII!) in authoritative recordings
made by the composer, William Walton. It includes both the concert suite from Henry V and a more detailed "scenario"
interspersed with the Shakespeare monologues recited by Olivier himself. The booklet is included.
The Shakespeare scenario is in mono, the rest in stereo.

Again, people who think that Hans Zimmer is a great film composer and that Gladiator marks a peak
of scoring historical movies need not bother with this release. 😉

Hmmm, the Walton has been downloaded 49 times. The math doesn’t quite work out. Will ponder whether this is a deal-breaker.

The download period on this release has expired. Please do not share or re-upload my rip. Thank you!

I still wonder, given the number of thanks here, how the item has been downloaded no less than 62 times now from RS.

Please please wimpel re-up this masterpiece is without a doubt a marvellous score, thanks for your help 🙂
