More than 80 years after its première, Lon Chaney's extraordinary performance as the Phantom still has the power to shock; and the film is notable for its sumptuous set-piece scenes, including a masked Ball in which the Phantom appears as the Red Death on the Grand Stairway.

Such a brilliant composer. Thank you for all you created. Rest peacefully, sir.
Carl Davis Is Pure Genius in This Score !!!!
This is why I love RUclips...this is one of the greatest composers of our time, and his score for Phantom is one of the best movie scores I've ever heard. I cannot watch any other version of Phantom now, it must have his score
Carl Davis score of Phantom needs criterion bluray.
From these excerpts it seems a truly masterful score. I would love to hear the whole score!
Me too. I have a hard time warming up to the 1925 print on the second disc of the Milestone edition due to its lacking this score LOL.
Currently, its avaalible on the Milestone Collection. Expensive DVD.

Fun Fact: The Phantom’s make up was kept a secret until its theatrical release so many movie theaters had to keep smelling salts handy in case women fainted when his face was revealed.
