Elmer Bernstein - To Kill A Mockingbird (Original Motion Picture Score)

Based on Harper Lee's Pulitzer Prize winning book of 1961. Elmer Bernstein's iconic score is now available with this brand new recording conducted by the late composer.

Atticus Finch is a lawyer in the fictional town of Maycomb, a racially divided Alabama town, set in the early 1930s, and modeled after Monroeville where Harper Lee grew up. Finch agrees to defend a young black man who is accused of raping a white woman. Many of the townspeople try to get Atticus to pull out of the trial, but he decides to go ahead. How will the trial turn out - and will it effect any changes in racial attitudes in Maycomb?
