Malone Digital | The Magnificent Elmer Bernstein - The theme will stick @malonedigital | Uploaded January 2023 | Updated October 2024, 2 hours ago.
Elmer Bernstein is a name synonymous with great film music. He’s a name associated with some of the best music to grace the “Western” genre of film.
The top of the heap must be The Magnificent Seven. Recorded in 1960, this music is inscribed in our collective consciousness with indelible ink. And with good reason, it’s great music!
This video ties in with the recent Quartet Records 4-CD soundtrack release of music from all four Magnificent Seven films released between 1960 and 1972.
For this video, we focus on that first, trailblazing score, and delve into the weeds of some minutiae along the way.
This is not meant to be particularly insightful or anything, just a bit of fun.
Chapters:
00:00 Introduction
00:14 Part 1—The Theme Will Stick
05:08 Part 2—The Goldwyn Sound
09:44 Part 3—Trivia and Minutiae
13:01 Part 4—Frank DeWald’s Notes
###
With a career spanning over five decades, Elmer Bernstein was a prolific and influential composer who left a lasting mark on the film music industry.
The Magnificent Seven was a Western film released in 1960, directed by John Sturges and starring an ensemble cast, including Yul Brynner, Steve McQueen, Charles Bronson, and James Coburn.
The story follows a group of seven gunslingers, each with a unique set of skills, who are hired to protect a Mexican village from a band of bandits led by the ruthless Calvera.
The film has since become a classic of the Western genre, known for its iconic score and memorable characters.
