20 Oscar Winning Songs

 

Considerando que se acerca una nueva entrega de los premios Oscar, dejo esta interesante y amena compilación de temas ganadores y postulantes a este premio.

Habitualmente el cine nos entrega grandes temas que se hacen, a veces, más conocidos que las mismas películas de las que fueron parte. En este caso, los dos volúmenes de 20 Oscar Winning Songs, es difícil encontrar esto, pues nos encontramos con canciones muy buenas en versiones orquestadas, que fueron parte de películas que son muy recordadas. Quizás el título sea un tanto mentiroso, pues no todas las canciones fueron ganadoras del Oscar, pero las que no ganaron, efectivamente postularon y no ganaron sólo por cosas del destino. pass: manchon1961
