The Comancheros | Soundtrack Suite (Elmer Bernstein)

[@lawrenceclemens8494]

Elmer Bernstein, one of the greatest composers ever to write for the screen. What a talent. This is one of his best, a memorable, superb score.

[@elkobit7415]

One off the best movie scores ever made. It still contributes to my daily hapiness. Thank you Elmer Bernstein for your greatness!

[@maryannesteinberger7652]

You can say that about so many of Elmer’s scores. And all are very different. (To Kill a Mockingbird was his.)

[@thomascampbell4730]

A great example when movies were fun and the music truly outstanding.

Nowadays, it would be denounced as "colonialism" and "white privilege." Ugggh! :--(

@@tabletalk33 Another favorite movie is "Zulu." The Brits came to S. Africa in steamships, used the telegraph to communicate, had state of the art rifles and artillery. The Zulus had not yet even invented the shoe. Hummm

[@Wiseask313]

@@thomascampbell4730 You’re right. Zulu was a great film of an actual historical event, marking Michael Caine’s 1964 screen debut, with a stirring musical score by John Barry, a veteran of the James Bond films. I suspect like a number of other films which portrayed blacks as primitives, Zulu won’t be aired anytime soon in this day and age, though the film intended to show them (and did in fact show them) as proud warriors.

Two of the Dukes children had roles in this movie. Patrick and the little girl is his daughter Aissa. I love the scene where he holds her and she is playing with his scarf and looking so comfortable in his arms. No wonder, how sweet to be playing on the set with her father! I fell in love with Stuart Whitman in this movie. He was so handsome and dashing. He went on to star in Cimarron Strip which to this day is one of the best Western TV shows.

[@Autostade67]

Elmer was the master - reinventing the style several times over - and each time a treat. But don't hesitate to checkout his comrades also from the East who also helped to define the West: Jerome Moross with his iconic theme (and score) for 'The Big Country' (and the T.V. series 'wagon Train'), John Williams lovely 'The Rare Breed', and Jerry Goldsmith, whose string of pastiche Western scores is the mid to late 60s is highlighted most notably by 'Hour of the Gun' and 'Rio Lobo'.

[@maryannesteinberger7652]

Sadly, Jerome Moross never got the recognition he so richly deserved.

[@theguyinthemiddle2919]

When we listen to this music, we immediately know it is from a Western movie.

[@barryfriedrichs3605]

Elmer also did the music for The Shootist, Big Jake, and True Grit. Great Music! In the Commancheros, Melinda, the blond woman with her daughter, played Joan O'Brien, had a theme called Melinda's Theme. I am just an emotional sap when that is played. It is a warm piece of music.

[@barryfriedrichs3605]

I left out The Son's of Katie Elder. Great Music. I put all of this music on a flash drive and play it in my truck.

Interesting how a rhythmic motivation unifies the whole soundtrack here. Proof is the use of the main rhythmic figure in the final cadence. You see here an example of good using of ostinato. Influences of Stravinsky - the music composed from a rhythmic motivation, in true nietzschian sense - are present in this whole music.

True. And yet, Bernstein's range was quite remarkable - from his breakthrough score for Cecil B. DeMille's "The Ten Commandments" (1956) and his jazzy score for Otto Preminger's "The Man with the Golden Arm" (1956), to his wistful and nostalgic Coplandesque score for Robert Mulligan's "To Kill a Mockingbird" (1962) and his fun score (with some truly moving cues) for Ida Lupino's "The Trouble with Angels" (1966).

[@sherlocksharp7736]

When you think how prolific and diverse Bernstein was over his career, it's extremely impressive. From a western like the Comancheros to his orchestral work on the Heavy Metal soundtrack or films like Ghostbusters. One thing they all have in common, is that Bernstein's contributions provide the emotional and atmospherical impact that is, for all of them, definitive.

[@maryannesteinberger7652]
