    Conquest 1453 is the most succesful film ever in Turkey and the film is currently the second most popular 2012 film on the Internet Movie Database with only Underworld: Awakening receiving more votes! The exciting story of the siege of Constantinople in 1453 is a Turkish national epic, and Faruk Aksoy's film makes this piece of history accessible using a spectacular Hollywood-inspired cinematic style and a first-rate international orchestral score by Benjamin Wallfisch.

    MovieScore Media has released two scores before by the talented British composer/conductor (Dear Wendy and The Escapist), but there is no doubt Conquest 1453 is the most epic and action-packed we've done with him.

    Wallfisch's music is as always rich in colour and counterpoint, employing several strong themes and a rich pallette where the orchestra forms the backbone and inventive electronic programming adds a contemporary feel to the score. If you are a fan of big, bold and exciting movie music in the action/adventure genre, this one is definitely for you!

    First edition of the CD is limited to 1000 copies.

    Spinning this for the first time... not a good first impression.

    I'd like to hear more of what you think of it and also why Anthony thinks it's awesome?

    I actually like what I heard from the samples, although I obviously agree with Erik that Vangelis is all over the main title track.

    The main theme is a lot of fun and doesn't take itself too seriously (it's completely unoriginal). The action music is for the most part exciting even though the electronics are sometimes a bit heavy (and I suppose completely un-fitting for something set in 1453).

    It's dumb fun an has lots of colourful orchestration to keep it interesting. This kind of score would fit an Assassins Creed game really well.
