The book's title is an allusion to R zsa's twofold career as a composer of music for the concert hall and for motion picture soundtracks. R zsa was respected by Hollywood and by Carnegie Hall alike, and both halves of his 'double life' as a composer were artistically valid and complete unto themselves. Master of the epic, his scores for Ben Hur and Quo Vadis are legendary. The colourful booklet notes by Raymond Tuttle include fascinating commentary on the background to these recordings as well as the sensitive relationship between Rozsa and Bernard Herrmann. Also included is the latter's recording of music from Rozsa's score for Julius Caesar - one of the first films to be recorded in stereo. The recordings of both Ben Hur and Quo Vadis had limited release on Decca\/London and are available in this new coupling.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0067\/4660\/3571\/files\/REVIEWS_CS_WORLD_7ad42b8b-2188-414f-9c17-0e66da4d836d_480x480.png?v=1595264361\" alt=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eWith its gaudy primary colours and red-blooded conviction, Rozsa's score for Ben Hur is a potent mixture of orchestral spectacle and choral kitsch...It is all presented her with great conviction, and the Decca Phase Four techniques create maximum impact, with rich sonorities and a sparklingly brilliant upper range. --BBC Music Magazine\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0067\/4660\/3571\/files\/TRACK_LISTING_WITH_WORLD_1_81beb09d-4c29-4149-bf73-0d3740fd1d73_480x480.png?v=1595264371\" alt=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eROZSA: BEN HUR -
