Elmer Bernstein was one of Hollywood's most versatile and prolific composers, and his score for the 1966 epic Hawaii is a sweeping, grandly orchestrated work that matches the scale of the film. Drawing on Polynesian musical textures and Bernstein's characteristic melodic invention, it's a lush and immersive listen that holds up well outside the theater. This VG+ copy plays cleanly throughout — a rewarding find for the film score collector or anyone drawn to the golden era of Hollywood orchestral soundtrack work.
