THE QUIET MAN - Victor Young.

John Ford’s The Quiet Man remains the quintessential
film about Ireland and its people.

• Released in 1952 the film can truly be judged as ‘timeless’ as thousands still flock every year to the village of Cong in Co. Mayo where it was filmed.
• The film was used to launch the concept of budget video in the 1980s and recorded phenomenal sales.
• Universal’s release of the DVD in 2006 has recorded sales of close to 300,000.
• This release features the complete score of the film, penned by Victor Young.
• The music, performed by The Dublin Screen Orchestra conducted by Kenneth Alwyn was recorded in Ireland.
• Includes the traditional Irish Airs: The Isle Of Innisfree, The Wild Colonial Boy, Galway Bay and I’ll Take You Home Again Kathleen.
• This new mid-price reissue comes complete with a newly designed cover image.
