Miklos Rosza - El Cid

Miklos Rosza is one of the great score music composers of the last century.
His Sore for “El Cid” is in my opinion his most passionate score for historical movies. Each Character has its own – very inspiring theme or motif. The Theme for Cid, Jimena and the Love theme are the centre of his musical organisation. And you can listen to them through the whole length of the movie without being bored, because he varies them expertly with different instrumental groups of the orchestra.
Also his scores for action music like “Fight of Calahorra” or the “Coronation March” are especially fascinating. Even if the orchestra plays full force, it never gets blustering (wrong word?). The “El Cid-march” and the “Fight for Valencia” is orchestral music at its best.
My very personal opinion is that the music sounds like coming from a period long gone, but that makes her so distinctively beautiful. She sounds so emphatic spanish and late romanic in abundance, but never too foreign.
