LUKAS KENDALL (soundtrack producer / editor / publisher) Lukas Kendall talks about Film Score Monthly’s latest release – the megaset of Elmer Bernstein’s legendary Film Music Collection! Spanning 13 albums released during the seventies, the series was funded by the composer himself, and recorded with first-rate musicians and recording engineers.
Long a Holy Grail among collectors, Bernstein’s re-recorded suites were the only source to enjoy rare, previously unreleased music by Bernard Herrmann, Alfred Newman, Alex North, Miklos Rozsa, Dimitri Tiomkin, and Franz Waxman, and after a nearly 30-year absence, they’re back in a limited set.

KERRY O’QUINN (soundtrack producer / editor / publisher) During the 1970s and 1980s, Kerry O’Quinn, co-founder of Starlog Magazine, produced a series of notable soundtrack albums that today remain benchmarks of quality and production, plus time capsules of a period when the commercial viability of film music was deemed by some as ‘foolhardy.’
Showcasing the music of Bernard Herrmann, Ferde Grofé, and the still-forgotten Albert Glasser, our lengthy WKME-enhanced conversation chronicles the launch of Starlog Records, it’s unique projects, and O’Quinn’s eventual decision to change careers after a long and fruitful involvement with Starlog‘s diverse enterprises.
