Description
From FSM:
The director, a highly literate admirer of classical and film music, sought out Miklós Rózsa for a full-bodied romantic score of the kind Rózsa had written for decades but was seldom in-demand by the 1970s. The result was arguably Rózsa’s last great work, a stirring, symphonic gem that delighted critics and moviegoers in its authentic evocation of Hollywood’s Golden Age (even kicking off with the traditional Warner Bros. logo music composed by Max Steiner). More than being underscoring per se, the “retro” soundtrack plays an essential role in evoking the point-of-view of a Victorian man adrift in the modern world.
Time After Time has been available on an LP and CD (from Fifth Continent) but that was a re-recording conducted in 1979 by Rózsa in London. FSM presents, for the first time, the original soundtrack performance conducted by Rózsa in Burbank with a larger orchestra (as well as more music than the re-recording). With the original Dan Wallin recording remixed from the 16-track masters by Mike Matessino, the stereo sound quality is top-drawer.
FSM’s CD package features a new essay by Nicholas Meyer, reflecting on his work on the film and friendship with Rózsa, plus detailed liner notes by Jeff Bond and Frank K. DeWald. Thirty years later, one of Rózsa’s greatest works is available in definitive form.
Limited to 3000 and sold out.

I am sorry to have to add the following but due to one bad experience please note: this is a sealed cd and is photographed and described in good faith to the best of my ability. I won't accept returns due to minor cosmetic production flaws that do not affect cd playback. If this is unacceptable please do not buy.
