  • Franz Waxman's score for the 1962 movie "Taras Bulba" featured this exhilarating "Ride of the Cossacks" in which Taras Bulba, played by Yul Brynner, and his fellow cossacks gallop to Dubno. It was splendidly played by the fabulous hand-picked John Wilson Orchestra as an encore at the 2013 "Hollywood Rhapsody" Proms Concert in London's Royal Albert Hall, to an ecstatic audience of 6,000 prommers.

    You can find anything you want on TH-cam, including the greatest movie score of all time. Long live Taras Bulba, and Franz Waxman. This movie and it's music made my Pop doubly proud to be a Russian from the Steppes. I am more proud than ever to be his son, even 12 years after his passing. He taught me everything I ever needed to know.

    It takes eight months for John Wilson to put his 'Prom' concerts together. Much of the music he chooses is lost and has to be transcribed from ear to paper again! His orchestra is hand-picked and there were nine orchestral leaders from various other ochestras in this 90-piece symphony orchestra.
