Around The World In 80 Days

Thrilling music of many moods - romantic, adventurous, charming - was composed by the great Victor Young for the sound track of Michael Todd's epic "Around The World In Eighty Days". This is the musical backround that sets the lilting pace for the motion picture that so many have called filmdom's greatest achievement. This hi-fi performace will bring home to you the unforgettable experience of witnessing the fabulous Michael Todd spectacle.
Follow this music of many moods as it unfolds the background for the adventures of Phileas Fogg (played by David Niven), who, in the year 1872, has made a 20,000 pound wager that he can go "Around The World In Eighty Days". This he does, to win the bet. But there is many a close call. His Balloon is veered off course by angry winds. He travels by Chinese junk to Yokohama.
Romance arrives in the person of a beautiful Indian Maharanee (played by Shirley MacLaine). There are moods of love, action, suspense, thrills - all captured in this brilliant musical score. Like the motion picture it was created for, this score has everything.
When Michael Todd conceived the idea of presenting this Jules Verne classic in motion picture form, he spared no expense in gathereing the world's formost talent for his production. More than fifty top film stars - (Frank Sinatra, Marlene Dietrich, Charles Boyer and other of the greatest names) - appear in what Michael Todd refers to as "camero" roles. Almost 8,000 animals were filmed. Filming took place in 140 locations in thirteen countries as well as six major Hollywood studios. Crews of the world's greatest camera artists photographed the largest number of people ever "shot" for one film - 68,894 persons in thirteen different countries were photographed. Four million air passenger miles were flown for the various locations. This famed Jules Verne novel was sparked for comtemporary taste be the noted writer S. J. Perelman.
It it only fitting that the musical score should be the greatest for this greatest of movies. You will agree, as you listen to Victor Young's "Around The World In Eighty Days".
