Wow, this topic was started back in 2000! I even made a few comments. Still waiting. ....Unfortunately, a great percentage of film score fans today want scores related to comic book heroes , TV shows, pre-historic monsters and slasher movies. That's the sad state of motion pictures and the scores written for them today. Yawn... -zzzzzzzzzzzzzzx Yada yada yada Blah b l blah blah...

Now, Mr. Morgan, I realize you had been tied in up lately with Mr. Smith and that wonderful, insightful, encouraging and confirming hot off the presses bio on the "father of film music," and literary pursuits and insights are all well and good, and we're in a pestilential era...ah! esp. in light of the latter, wouldn't this be an excellent time to finally, well, GET ME THE AFRICAN QUEEN?!

This is a wonderful score. I thought for sure somebody would have recorded it by now. Always hoped Rumon Gamba and Chandos Records tackle it,but they seem to be inactive even before the pandemic. I believe a volume 2 of the Film Music of Gerard Schurman is being worked on, and I myself had suggested a volume of Cedric Thorpe Davie's Filmworks. I was told it has been "added to the list", but what else is on the list is anyone's guess. I think it all depends on what written score material is available, as I doubt if budgets extend to reconstruction. There is an extensive Library collection of Davie's original scores, and I suspect that this must also apply to Schurman. What other easily available material exists is difficult to say. I myself would almost kill for a Volume 2 of Clifton Parker but those aside I would buy any new CDs in the "Film Music of" series.
