Indeed, very helpful! Although not important, it is curious why the producers didn't just cut the Road Show music to fit the 112-minute version, but I'm glad they got Resinfeld to compose that delightful score. I believe it's more dynamic and memorable than the Road Show score.

Thank you again!

Thank you for the info. I found the DVD on Amazon, but not the VHS tape of the DeMille film.

The 155-minute and 112-minute versions of this film have different musical scores. Why would the producers pay for two scores? Is the 112-minute version for sale anywherre?

King of Kings (1927-28)

This is really curious.
The Road Show (18-reel version) score is a modern composition.
The Riesenfeld score was recorded in 1928 for the 14-reel version..
The live music performed by Cinema Orchestra for the Road Show was not recorded. Does the sheet music exist or is it lost to history?
