The Magnificent Seven - Elmer Bernstein

One of the greatest soundtracks ever.

California still looks similar to the west of old. i love this song and im playing it in jazz band

amazing epic wonderful those were the good ol' years...

my dad took me to see thsi when it first came out. It was the coolest movies ever. Steve McQueen is the man!

Just the main theme? Or is it an arrangement from the entire soundtrack?

its the theme song for the movie the magnificent seven

When my European friends tell me that we American's have little "classical" music. I always tell them, "you just don't know where to look". Look in the movies. It has been hiding there for nearly 80 years. This piece is one of my favorite examples of that. Brynner, Wallach, McQueen, Coburn, Vaugh, Bronson, Dexter, Buchholz. Great American adaptation. Bravo akvarog!!!

True, I think, too, that quite some of the (American) movie soundtracks are right up there with European classical music! And I'm European. I think a good soundtrack's just as great, in its own way, as a symphony by Beethoven.

If you are American and music like this does not stir your blood then you are not American. Just hearing this music brings out the pictures of America. The vast openness and rolling country that still is America.

best western movie music of all time and I love 'true grit' too but this one is tops.
