Romeo & Juliet (Original Soundtrack Recording)

The soundtrack for the 1968 film Romeo and Juliet was composed and conducted by Nino Rota. It was originally released as an LP, containing nine entries, most notably the song "What Is a Youth", composed by Nino Rota, written by Eugene Walter and performed by Glen Weston. The music score won a Silver Ribbon award of the Italian National Syndicate of Film Journalists in 1968 and was nominated for two other awards. The soundtrack is referred to as "Original Soundtrack Recording" on the front cover with further credits to the film itself. Several other editions of the soundtrack feature different covers. In 1969, Capitol released an edition titled Romeo &. Juliet — Music from the Original Sound Track, it has none of the dialogue, but only the music, composed and conducted by Nino Rota. The "Love Theme" provides the background to the narrative of Our Tune, a long-standing feature on British radio hosted by Simon Bates.
