Davis / Davis / Chamber Orchestra Of London - An Eastern Westerner - High & Dizzy - Music CD

In 1920 Harold Lloyd Created No Less Than Five Short, Two-Reelers, Including 'An Eastern Westerner' and 'High and Dizzy'. The Two Films Could Not Be More Contrasting; Even Their Orchestrations Are Different. Carl Davis's Score to An Eastern Westerner Was Composed in 2000 As Curtain-Raiser to Mr. Lloyd's Thrill Feature, Safety Last, for An Orchestra Resembling Paul Whiteman's Jazz Band. High and Dizzy's Score, Composed 2012, Has a More Classical Line-Up, Utilizing An Aria from Bellini's Opera 'La Sonnambula' and Borrowings, a la Silent Film Tradition, from Rossini and Wagner.
