Land Records and Sony Music presents the remastered and expanded 2-CD SET of
legendary composer Dimitri Tiomkin’s score to the 1963 motion picture epic

Deutsch and Mark G. Wilder, and mastered by Mark G. Wilder from recently discovered Sony Music vault elements, this release is a must for all golden age score enthusiasts.
