Witchfinder General theme by Roberto Mann Orchestra

[Moggydrippin]

It's such wonderful music, I have been to Lavenham where it was filmed a beautiful old Tudor Village caught in a time warp, It was'nt a film set, but a real Tudor Villiage, if you ever get the chance to go there please do amazing place !

To anyone interested, The Witchfinder General soundtrack can be obtained on the CD "Great Movie Themes In Dolby Surround: Horror! - Monsters, Witches & Vampires" , which I just purchased from Amazon. Fantastic to hear this lush beautiful score in digital sound for the first time! It's frankly out of place on this compilation, which is basically monster movie music. Having waited decades to hear it, I'll take it on any CD I can get. This score has been in my head since I saw the movie in 1984.

Classic movie theme for a under-appreciated classic.

It's the whole soundtrack but includes this lovely music.

@nogbad123

Glad to here us brit's were used in one of their war film's

@nogbad123 Music from Witchfinder General was also used in the first ever episode of Minder with Dennis Waterman & George Cole.Vincent Price is superb in Witchfinder, he's never played a more evil & sadistic character.

Great film. Great theme.

[Moggydrippin]

I keep playing this over and over, I love it !

[hablerz]

All the great horror films had Patrick Wymark in them , lol.

[mrmonkeyisland1]

A great classic.

[0B0Eriec]

This movie is now available on youtube in 9 parts.

I don;t need that anymore though,

I've bought the DVD and I show it to my friends whenever I get an opportunity.

For me, this is one of the best movies I ever saw.

[PlusSizeAngel]

So beautiful and sad.

[leahrockstar]

Love this tune, got a copy played by London philharmonic orchestra nothing beats the original so I watch the movie when I can for the music mostly. I fell for this first time I saw the movie when first shown on TV in the mid-seventies.

[airscrew1]

This is a fantastic theme and the film is one of my all time greats.

[brist75]

what a beautiful composition, loved the film, but the music is something else!

[inka51]

no other music could be played to this brilliant film! it fits perfectly.paul ferris got it so right!

[cartimand]

Wow. Thanks for posting. Beautiful music to one of the best British movies of all time!

[murkelbaby]

Is there a Soundtrack available to this great movie???

[Pamfino2]

Sadly, the soundtrack has never been released commercially. I heard a rumour earlier in the year that De Wolfe Records was going to put out a CD of it soon, but no sign of it yet. There's a De Wolfe LP on Ebay UK at the moment of the Paul Ferris soundtrack, but it's going for about £49! At that price, I think I'm going to wait and hope the CD comes out eventually!

[nottmsno1wolf]

ereic-did you manage to get a copy of the DVD?

[0B0Eriec]

Hey,

you are my hero for reposting this!

Why did they ban you?

Anyway, thanks a lot for offering us this great music and these nice screenshots!

[gtrfinger]

Some of the most beautiful theme music ever in my opinion, though this is slightly more "spanish" than the music from the film itself.

[nottmsno1wolf]

top marks again pamfino.

i was upset when the jobsworths deleted your original posting-i could not go on youtube without listening to roberto mann.

once again thankyou.

[LordWolverin]
