Composer Alex North was nominated for an Oscar 15 times but never won until he was given the lifetime achievement award in 1986. Among his many compositions are the soundtracks for Spartacus, Cleopatra, The Agony & The Ecstacy, and this 1958 documentary produced for the widescreen Cinerama theaters. Originally recorded in Cinerama 7-track sound, this soundtrack is a large and sweeping score using native rhythms and moods. Its grand and ornate, as if North was painting a portrait of his impressions of the islands of the South Seas. His brush: the baton. His canvas: the 97 piece Cinerama Symphony Orchestra.
