Not necessarily your favorite composers in order list, but in terms of the number of scores you own by each. What does your top 10 look like? 1. Elmer Bernstein 2. Jerry Goldsmith 3. Miklos Rozsa 4. Maurice Jarre 5. John Williams 6. John Barry 7. Henry Mancini 8. John Scott 9. Alfred Newman 10. Georges Delerue |

By default my most-represented composer is Ennio Morricone. Since I acquire every version of his CDs, every time they get released be they new releases, straight reissues, expanded versions or whatever, it seems he by far outweighs anyone else on my shelves. I think Williams and Goldsmith follow. After that I'm too lazy to start counting. Probably Herrmann, again because I keep every version. So my input probably isn't very worthy. --Doug |

My list would be rather boring and pretty much in line with release trends. Goldsmith, Horner, Elmer Bernstein, Silvestri and Barry would probably make the top five. Then composers like Schifrin, Morricone, Delerue, Williams, Kamen, Donaggio, Thomas Newman, Conti, Poledouris, Fielding, Herrmann, John Scott and Mancini would follow. Of course, there are many composers I appreciate just as much despite not having as many albums of their work because they haven't had all that much released. |

The top three are easy: 1. Jerry Goldsmith 2. John Williams 3. Miklos Rozsa. If you count non-film scores, my Prokofiev collection is about on par with Williams. The others would fluctuate, depending on how you count. I have virtually everything that's been released by Laurence Rosenthal and Shirley Walker. I have large quantities of Horner, Mancini, Bernstein, Elfman and Morricone. After them, Herrmann, Broughton, Silvestri, Jarre, Poledouris, North, Shore... But I'm pretty sure I've passed 10 at this point, so I'll stop. ![]() |
