“You see, this is my life. It always will be. There’s nothing else. Just us, the cameras, and those wonderful people out there in the dark. All right, Mr. DeMille, I’m ready for my close-up!”
Join me (and Norma Desmond) this Friday afternoon on The Classical Network as we mark the 90th anniversary of the Academy Awards with a SPECIAL THREE-HOUR BROADCAST celebrating the history of music in the movies. Hear selections from all five of this year’s nominees for Best Original Score, alongside music from some of the best-loved and most-honored movies of all time – including “The Godfather,” “Star Wars,” “Titanic,” “The Lord of the Rings,” “Lawrence of Arabia,” “Ben-Hur,” and “Gone with the Wind.”
The music IS big; it’s the PICTURES that got small. The playlist will be positively cinematic, this Friday from 4 to 7 p.m. EST, on WWFM – The Classical Network and wwfm.org.
