100 YEARS OF ELMER BERNSTEIN - Live Concert Recording (Limited Numbered Collector's Edition) (3CD)

Elmer Bernstein ? 100th Anniversary Live Concert Recording

Willow & Cavern's inaugural release presents a live concert celebrating one of the most revered film composers of all time, Elmer Bernstein.

Recorded in Dublin in 2022 with the National Symphony Orchestra Ireland, conducted by Peter Bernstein and produced by Tim Burden, the programme spans Bernstein's celebrated career, featuring music from The Magnificent Seven, The Great Escape, To Kill a Mockingbird and more.

Presented from the original concert hall stereo master, the recording preserves the sound and character of the performance as originally heard.

Prepared in collaboration with the Elmer Bernstein Estate.

AUDIO NOTE

This recording is presented from the original concert hall stereo mix. While adjustments have been made to improve clarity and balance, the material reflects the conditions of a live performance and retains elements of the original acoustic environment, including audience presence. It is presented as an authentic document of the concert, preserving both its musical and historical character.

Limited Numbered Collector's Edition (3CD)
Limited to 100 copies.

The 3CD collector's edition presents the complete concert across two discs, with a dedicated third disc featuring the previously unreleased original audio of Elmer Bernstein's conversation with Henry Mancini, previously published in Elmer Bernstein's Film Music Notebook: A Complete Collection of the Quarterly Journal, 1974-1978.

Accompanying the edition is a newly designed booklet based on the original concert programme, adapted for the CD format and featuring additional bespoke artwork. The edition is presented in a slipcase, with each copy individually numbered.
