THE LAUNCH: CONDUKTOR’S THEME (by John Morris Russell & The Cincinnati Pops Orchestra: Superheroes!)

SUMMARY:                                   RUNNING TIME: 4:50 Min.

Composed by Pete Anthony, this original orchestral piece is performed by conductor John Morris Russell and The Cincinnati Pops Orchestra for their 2012 cover tribute album, Superheroes!  It’s Track # 10 for the album.

REVIEW:

Perfectly suited for the album’s theme, it’s a terrific sci-fi/fantasy overture for the imagination — either for super-heroics or blasting off into deep space.  Well-performed by The Cincinnati Pops Orchestra, its classical-themed originality is a definite plus.  In that sense, “The Launch: Conduktor’s Theme” can hold its own against the DC & Marvel movie instrumentals covered on Superheroes!         

BRIAN’S ODD MOON RATING:                   7½ Stars

Note: Also recommended from this same album is the exclusive “To the Rescue!” TV tune medley  With voice-over work by Adam West, the tune homages George Reeves’ Superman, Lynda Carter’s Wonder Woman, The Super-Friends (with Wendy, Marvin, & Wonder Dog), the 1960’s animated Spider-Man series , and, of course, West’s own Batman.
