Undoubtedly one of the most outstanding talents on the British show business scene is that of Geoff Love.

Recording under his own name, Geoff Love has had tremendous success with his albums of "Big Movie Concertos", "Big Love Movie Themes", "Big Suspense Movie Themes" and "Big Western Movie Themes". This latter album has already sold over  half a million copies throughout the world. Under the nom-de-plume of "Manuel and the Music of the Mountains" Geoff has 14 hit albums to his credit.

Geoff's recording activities are too numerous to mention in complete detail, but he has been responsible for the orchestrations and musical direction of hundreds of artists, and he has contributed to many internationally known number one hits.

And now, Geoff, conducting the full London Philharmonic Orchestra, considered by many to be the finest orchestra in the country, brings you this inspired and fascinating performance of the most evocative war music ever written.
