Quote: We tend to think of reworkings as in the hack Mantovani/ Rose vein for musack albums, but what if composers/ orchestrators with lots of real clout and talent, like Zador were to rework Rozsa's ideas? Would this dilute the work, or give it new life? Bruno Nicolai re-did a whole album of Jarre's 'Dr. Zhivago' for example. I'm not speaking here of LeRoy Holmes-ish lightenings but re-interpretations by people who know. Herrmann reworked 'Julius Caesar' of course, and there were the reduced 'Ben-Hur' albums by 'Norman Maine' and 'Jean Baitzouroff'. Palmer of course made marginal changes with Rozsa's consent to many pieces.
