hailed as one of the great post-war orchestral voices, CPO embarks on a series devoted to the composer's film work. Battle of the Bulge (1965) was the last of 105 film, theatre and television productions to be graced with a Frankel score, and is his film-music masterpiece. Reflecting a film on the scale of The Longest Day and The Great Escape, there are more than 78 minutes of music, and, due to the low level at which the score was mixed in the finished film, much of it is really heard on this release for the first time. Ranging from huge battle sequences filled with thrilling motor rhythms to the terror of a massacre of prisoners, through a moment of peace that interpolates traditional Christmas carols, this is movie music on a vast canvas. The sound is bold and dynamic, while the Queensland Symphony Orchestra who have recorded many discs of Frankel's music under the baton of Werner Andreas Albert, respond with terse, electrifying performances. The full power of Frankel's vision is unleashed in the Violin Concerto In Memory of the Six Million, Frankel's profoundly personal, rather than Hollywood-inspired, reaction to the horrors of WWII. --Gary S Dalkin

Advantages: Robert Shaw, action, good realism Disadvantages: Hollywoodised story complete with history rewritten, ( again )
The Battle of the Bulge ( or The Battle of the Ardennes as it was really called ) was the last major offensive ever mounted by Hitler in the second world war and was one of the biggest battles the US forces ever fought. It was also the only battle where the US army suffered a defeat ( be it a short one ) and also the first time they were really pushed back and if Hitlers plan had been a little bit more realsitic, he might well have extended the war ... ...these were veterans and very battle hardened troops, in additional, although many units did retreat, a lot of them stood their ground and this held up the Germans and even though they were completely surrounded and outnumbered, these units caused major delays and some very heavy casulties to the Germans, worse still they caused them to use a lot of fuel and ammunition which they could not afford. However, the allies did have some major fuel dumps ...
