Battle of Britain Suite - (BBC Proms)

[@rachels209]

The use of this incredible masterpiece in the movie is breathtaking. The music tells the story with the only spoken words “Come in Blue 3?” No engines noises, no gun noises, just this piece of music describing the sheer terror those brave young aviators went through. Lest we forget.

Yes, this is a soundtrack that actually needs no film.

[@davedalton1273]

Yes, absolutely! The Spits, in formation, then breaking and sweeping in, for the kill. The Heinkels, bursting into flames, and then, interior shots of the crews struggling to bail out and for the most part, not succeeding. All this, against the backdrop of a majestic score. It's almost too much!

[@Kinopanorama1]

[@hotel3667]

Only half of it! The last half of this piece was rejected. From 6:05 and to the end, was not in the movie!! Ron Goodwin made almost all of the music for the movie. Not William Walton.

[@garyhiggins6718]

On DVD you can choose to watch the whole movie with the William Walton soundtrack in full!

[@Bruce-1956]

Together with Lawrence of Arabia, Dambusters, Born on the fourth of July and plenty more.

[@jslasher1]

@@hotel3667 Wrong! All of Walton's score, with the sole exception of "Battle in the Air", which Malcolm Arnold conducted, was thrown out. "Battle in the Air" survived because Sir Lawrence Olivier informed the producers that he would have his name removed from the film credits if that cue was not retained. Later on, however, parts of the rejected Walton score were re-inserted for the film's re-release and the DVD as well.

[@phaasch]

I recall the main reason for Walton's score being sidelined was that there wasn't anything like enough of it to fill an album, and therefore was a missed "commercial opportunity" for the producers. Even as an 9 year old watching the film for the first time, "Battle in the Air" leapt out of the screen, and made the hair on the back of my neck stand up. It stood apart from the rest of the score, although I didn't know why for many years. To hear it placed with the rest of his score is a joy, and yet Goodwin, with his powerful leitmotifs, also hugely contributes to the finished product we all know and love. In the end, the combination of two very different talents was a masterstroke of film scoring, but it's Walton's set piece which raises it to immortality.

[@RogerDDog]

No piece of music better conjures up a gaping endless sky and the pure terror and fear of aerial battle than this. The sense the apprehension and the confusion in the music is tangible, the immediacy of decision and instinct; the determination of faith the sheer gallant bravery of barely experienced young men on the edge of panic as they did their duty. So many young men - barely into manhood - experienced the absolute terror and the elation of battle thousands feet in the air with their survival being down to no more than sheer guts and a reliance on their machines. So thank God we had the Spitfire and the Hurricane, not to mention the Lancaster and others powered by the cutting edge of technology of the time, the Rolls Royce Merlin; and thank God too for the survival of the few, with never ending gratitude especially to those heroes who didn't make it!

[@carlosacevedo8530]

In the very early 1960s, I used to buy and collect movie soundtracks on vinyl records. The Battle of Britain was among my favorites! I had so many records, that I probably wore out quite a few needles! But composers in those days were far more imaginative and if I may say so, more superior than today's! For every epic film in those old days, there were many composers that were very good and whose music is unforgettable! I'm 70 years old at this writing and many movie soundtracks themes are ingrained in my brain's memory banks! I hope I never contract Alzheimer's disease because if that happens, all that beautiful music will be lost forever!

[@scatton61]

An atonishing piece of music, brilliantly played.

Honestly, before coming here by curiosity, I didn't even know the existence of William Walton. And, sincerely, if this piece is an example of what he did, I've got a good reason to listen to his other works. Great Britain always had great musicians, and I assume it's a sure bet to say that William Walton is one of them.

It's been almost 79 years now, may you all rest in peace....

[@peace-now]

Walton or Goodwin? Which is the best score. Answer: Neither. They complement each other. Mind you, how Goodwin could come up with these masterpieces at such a short notice is beyond me. Walton makes the film grand, dangerous and important. Goodwin makes it thrilling, fun... and German!

[@songsmith31a]

Basically, the choice of the music for the film was made by its producer (the money!). Both composers were brilliant at their craft and Goodwin was to write the famous theme for "Where Eagles Dare"....one of the very best of its kind.

[@jslasher1]

@@songsmith31a Well, then, the producers were complete idiots when it came to replacing most of Walton's score with Goodwin's music. When Sir Laurence Olivier threatened to have his name removed from the credits, he producers relented and retained Walton's "Battle in the Air", which was conducted by Malcolm Arnold. However, Walton's complete score, later restored for the DVD release, is a fine one -- worthy of reassesment.

As the commentary said, Walton's score was dropped for the film, and only the first bit of the suite called "Battle in the Air" (I think) was used as accompaniment to the fiercest battle scene, depicting the climax of the Battle of Britain on 15th September. This was explained (deplored) years ago in a television programme about film music made with André Previn when he was based in London (70s?). So you will listen in vain for most of this if you watch the motion pic. The producers own fault, really. I'm sure they wanted something much more 633 Squadron but chose a Tchaikovsky rather than a John Williams.

[@hotel3667]

EH??? Ron Goodwins music is way better than William Waltons!!!!!

[@songsmith31a]

I think there's no lack of clever descriptive film music writing in Ron Goodwin's score. The producer made a commercial decision, no more, no less. I accept Previn's own film contributions from his Hollywood days but it's all subjective and there's also a certain aspect of arty-farty snobbery to be found. I recall Previn's own mean words about popular MGM singer Kathryn Grayson in his autobiography and wondered then (and now) about their motivation, not least because she always pleased in her various film role performances for that famous studio..
