The FilmHarmonia Orchestra plays The Big Country by Jerome Moross (arr. Richard Ling).

The Big Country

The 1958 Western film, The Big Country, follows a former sea captain as he moves to the Wild West to marry his fiancée, but upon arrival becomes embroiled in a bitter feud between two ranching families.

The main theme is heard during the film’s opening panoramic scene, in which our gentleman protagonist arrives by stagecoach drawn across the vast prairie. Moross’s opening theme is majestic and exhilarating — characterised by its brass fanfare, spirited strings, and lively woodwinds — reflecting the grit and determination of the bold souls who choose this difficult and isolated life.
