If your three wishes would include a complete recording, in up-to-date sound, of one of the most enchanting film scores of Miklós Rózsa, you needn’t yearn for the chance discovery of a magic lamp.

This week on “Picture Perfect,” join me for selections from a 2017 release, a two-CD collaborative effort between Prometheus Records and Tadlow Music, of Rózsa’s score for the classic 1940 fantasy-adventure “The Thief of Bagdad.” The City of Prague Philharmonic and Nic Raine recorded the music, note-complete, with ample bonus material.

It’s a magic carpet ride through the fantastical world of the Arabian Nights. Surrender to the enchantment, on “Picture Perfect,” music for the movies, now in syndication on KWAX, the radio station of the University of Oregon!
