Description: Unusually for a film composer, Sainton was allowed by director John Huston to spend time on location with the film crew to work out timings, sketch musical ideas and make notes. The result was one of the most thrilling, remarkable and unjustly neglected scores in film music: a gorgeous and shimmering rhapsody of the sea. Moscow Symphony Orchestra; William Stromberg. Original 1998 Marco Polo release (01A003).
