Warriors of the Silver Screen Review

by Steven McDonald

Two CDs of stirring, thundering cues from a variety of motion pictures, with the COPP under a variety of batons and occasionally supported by the Crouch End Festival Chorus. To the credit of the producers, Star Wars and Star Trek are ignored in favor of historical and fantasy epics -- Braveheart, Taras Bulba, Ben Hur, The War Lord and the like, and, once again, a cue from Conan the Barbarian. To add extra weight to this stirring package, there is an Enhanced CD section on the first disc, while all of the cuts have been mixed in Dolby Surround. Grand entertainment.
