To his shock and disbelief, Cabot discovers three-hundred and thirty-seven survivors and their descendants living in an air bubble deep within the ship’s wreckage.
Born in Indiana in 1908, George Duning was an American composer known for his prolific contributions to film and television music throughout the mid-20th century. Educated at the Cincinnati Conservatory of Music studying composition under Mario Castelnuovo-Tedesco, Duning began his professional music career as an arranger for various dance bands throughout region. Duning eventually relocated to Hollywood in the 1930s finding work as a staff composer and arranger for music departments at major studios. George Duning passed away on February 27, 2000. The composer left behind a veritable treasure trove of rich and powerful music that remains largely unreleased.
Duning’s career spanned over four decades composing scores for movies and television series including FROM HERE TO ETERNITY, THE MAN FROM LARAMIE, PICNIC , THE EDDY DUCHIN STORY, 3:10 TO YUMA, BELL BOOK AND CANDLE and episodes of THE BIG VALLEY, STAR TREK, MANNIX, THE PARTRIDGE FAMILY, and THE MAGICAL WORLD OF DISNEY. One of the last scores Duning composed was for GOLIATH AWAITS.
