The Hunt For Red October | Soundtrack Suite (Basil Poledouris) 

Saw this opening night and can tell you, the score had a big impact. Certain cues, the theater was quiet and you could hear the choir, and the audience was completely into it.

A real masterpiece with heroic notes of Maestro Poledouris. RIP

This is a beautiful well written an composed soundtrack thank you for posting.

Menschlichen Stimmen sind die wichtigsten Instrumente in dieser erregenden Suite. Echt Klasse!

gives you the chills listening to this...

Whenever you have such an amazing and immersive score to support the plot for a great movie, the music itself becomes one of the main characters. Well done!

I am confused. Why would anyone down vote this?

Such a great score by Basil Poledouris. It's funny how a time period of sociopolitical tension can give rise to such interesting musical styles. Then that style bleeds into a different medium like movie soundtracks. As always, Fred, you do great job picking the right cues when putting together these suites. They always make office work more fun while listening to them.

Great soundtrack 👍

RIP - Basil Poledouris.

Basil Poledouris has made the greatest tracks for movies

Have to admit Fred, having the picture of the composer at the start is such a small thing, but it humanises the piece as well as being a nice little bit of info! Cheers and keep up the good work, always like checking back every few months and seeing the new additions (my favourite is still John Addison's A Bridge too Far).

This music was the ' Voice ' for this movie .And Sean Connery of all actors I have to say his voice of Connery fit his character so well ! A Great movie ...

BRILLANTE !!!!......ARTE PURO........

Excellent!!

Epic music at its absolute best!

"Nuclear Scam" alone is a powerful track with its use of the theme/Russian anthem. Moving in a singular way around the 11 minute mark.

A wonderful music

Fantastico!!

Outubro vermelho é um lindo filme e com bela trilha sonora. E Sean conery, e um super ator , eu o amo❤ como ator .........😊

more Russian than the Russians Poledouris proved himself as a one of the greatesr soundtrak composres!!!

Kamarade commandant Marco Ramius, commandant en second Borodine, parez à plonger , assiette moins 30...désolé pour ce délire, que de souvenirs avec Uss Alabama 😅😅😅😢

The beginning of this suite sounds like music from "The Russians are Coming, the Russians are Coming" when we see the submarine. Great compilation. Thanks very much for posting.

This was written for the film? I always genuinely thought it was a piece of classic Russian orchestra, outstanding, beautiful Russian tones and old soviet atmosphere, you can hear the cold snow, you can hear the stoic endurance of a beautiful people, amazing I can ruin this tune for you though, if you dont wish to have it so...do not read on... 2:34 *pump the braaakes... PUMP THE BRAAAAKES*

🎩 👍!

I love all Slavic music......best in the world

Launch Countermeasures

What is the title on 1:20sec mark?

Thank you for doing this -- it is, indeed, an extraordinary score. Do you know whether there is a libretto for the words and a translation?

❤❤❤❤❤❤😅

This shows how passionate russians are.

Da!

9:16!

Now it should be re-filmed with new actors: Borei, Seawolf, and Severodvinsk

You have these great soundtracks from Basil Poledouris (is that a Greek name?) on this play list, but you did not include the one from Robocop, interestingly. I can't help but to wonder why you would leave that one out, since the Robocop soundtrack was the reason why I had even heard of Basil Poledouris. Just curious....

Grande Rússia.

Wonderful anthem. I'm not Russian but I've studied their history for many decades - today's western media is either totally disengenous or utterly ignorant of this great nation.... and if anyone thinks Russia doesn't know how to fight and tolerate immense suffering then a brief study of Russia in Ww2 will give them pause....WW2 in Europe was won by Russia, not Churchill or Tom Hanks. A truly great nation, that should be far closer to Western Europe if only USA would stop driving a wedge between us, as they've done in Ukraine.

Well I suppose if we have to have a needless superpower confrontation with Russia as we are having now, this is the appropriate music for it! BUT it would be far better if we could enjoy this music without the possibility of a worldwide nuclear conflagration! At this point the survival of Ukraine is a given, all we are sponsoring is the issue of how much of the Donetsk region Russia gets to keep. So what? In 200 years no one will care how much of that region (which is composed of a mix of Russians and Ukrainians) is controlled by which side just as no one cares now how much of the once hotly disputed Great Lakes region is controlled by the US or Canada! Duh! Not worth blowing up the whole World over, geniuses!
