3 COMPLETE ORIGINAL SOUNDTRACKS !

American film composer George Duning (1908-2000) was the author of many highly celebrated scores. This release compiles three of this most famous soundtracks in their entireties: those of the films "The World of Suzie Wong" (1960), directed by Richard Quine and featuring William Holden; "The Eddy Duchin Story" (1956), directed by George Sidney and starring Tyrone Power and Kim Novak; and "Picnic" (1955), directed by Joshua Logan and featuring William Holden
and Kim Novak again.

While "Suzie Wong" and "Picnic" present brilliant scores with most of the music composed by Duning, The Eddy Duchin Story, a bioepic film about the pianist who died before his time, showcases Carmen Cavallaro at piano playing gorgeous arrangements by Duning of typical pieces from Duchin’s repertoire.
