This month we compare the work of a master and their apprentice.

Elmer Bernstein wrote some of the one of the most iconic and enduring scores in the history of cinema. However, he also has a legacy as one of the great teachers of Hollywood. Rising star, Bear McCreary owes a particular gratitude, having been mentored and essentially introduced to the industry by Bernstein.

We compare McCreary’s most recent big score - Godzilla: King of the Monsters, with one of Bernstein’s absolute best – The Great Escape.

Rounds for this month

1 – Main Theme

2 – Suspense

3 – Action

4 – Sadness and Loss

5 – Legacy

Bonus: Bear McCreary’s Blog “My decade with Elmer Bernstein”
