Has anyone heard any news about a new release of the OST of Elmer Bernstein's The Ten Commandments ?
|

Only from the Kabbalists, who have been working on this problem feverishly, night and day.
They find there to be significance in the numbers 2 and 5 and the term "OMG."
Currently, their calculation works out something like this:
2 tablets
of
5 commandments each . . .
OMG!: Oh, My God!
. . . equals "250."
What the number 250 means, of course, is anybody's guess.
I assure you, there are top men working on it. Top men.

. . . soon. However, 4 months have passed without any word on it, so I don't know what to believe at this point. It could all be a hoax or rumors.
We've waited long enough. I say we all collect everybody's old gold-CDs, melt 'em down, and start building a golden calf. If we worship the calf hard enough, you know, start dancing around and gyrating and stuff, then . . . .

Perhaps it was the same person who claimed some 3 or 4 years ago that people shouldn't buy SEBASTIAN from Harkit as someone else had already been working on it... and still... NOTHING!
Please remember releases get delayed for any number of reasons. Intrada Records has stated in the passed few years titles that took "five", "eight", and even one that took "ten" years to get released.
And the person in question is Lukas. If you think he wouldn't know, then you'd be saying you know better. I trust him:
(http://www.filmscoremonthly.com/board/posts.cfm?threadID=58787)
You may have heard, or will be hearing, rumblings about the thieves at Harkit issuing a CD of Goldsmith's Sebastian.
We had major problems with Harkit releasing pirate versions of Bell, Book and Candle and Klute before we did the official ones, and we had to have lawyers stomp on them to keep them from pirating The Man From U.N.C.L.E.
Anyway, if they do something with Sebastian, DON'T BUY IT.
Can't say any more -- it's not us working on a license -- but you would be VERY SORRY if you spent money on Harkit's inane vinyl transfer and then saw what was subsequently released for real.
Get it?
Thanks,
Lukas

Bump!
Coming 2015 from Intrada, possibly in a 5CD set....
Doug Fake from Intrada, March 2013
You'll be getting a spectacular presentation of The Ten Commandments before too long, so don't worry. When you hear it all, you'll elevate it from "a fine score" to one of the greatest ever. But in the meantime, definitely enjoy FSM's spectacular release for The Wild Bunch. Another one of the greatest ever.

The Ten Commandments must be close to setting a new "in development" record by now.
Yes it must...because 3 years ago I was going to do a new complete recording of THE TEN COMMANDMENTS but was put of doing so by Intrada as they were going to issue "the ultimate" Ten Commandments set. Wish I had gone ahead with the recording now.
[...]
Looks like record labels are falling over themselves to release as many titles are possible that the whole market is now swamped and depressed which I forecast even before Intrada started on their Ten Commandments quest....

Roger Feigelson from Intrada, 2 hours ago:
As others mentioned, Doug already revealed this about a year ago. This will happen, probably next year. Lots of hurdles to overcome, but could potentially be a 5-CD set. We'll see. James would probably still have time to record and release it if he really wanted to. I'm sure there's room for multiple recordings.
But yes, this is exactly why I don't like to reveal titles before their time...people get impatient and angry when things take longer than expected. That's life in the world of soundtrack production....

Finally! Doug's comment had been ambiguous at best, but now that's all irrelevant as we have hard confirmation.
Excellent! And by that time my finances might be open to allow for purchasing things.

Ditto -- I want both too! Plus James might be able to record some music written for but not recorded for the film as he did with El Cid!

I would have still been happy with just the complete original recording, but at a 5-disc set it sounds like Intrada is planning to give this the Ben-Hur treatment and I'm just ecstatic!
